On Sunday, April 21st, there took place the first of an infinite number of
freepile parties you're all invited to. This was a secret ploy to get all
of your old natural fiber clothing for the purposes of making cloth
menstrual pads.
<OMG>Now, on Saturday, May 4th at 2pm, we will be transforming your
security sweatshirt into the most beautiful and practical object to hit
2141 yet!</OMG>

Here's to understanding and working things through! Revphil and I also plan
on being at the meeting tomorrow to talk further details, including
off-list stuff, so please be there if you're very interested.
We've worked out a time--doors open 8:22, show starts 9:07 sharp. I'll send
out an announcement right now.
ok, i have been away from sudoroom for a full two nights now
i miss sudoroom!
we have org nerds that work really hard to keep the projects running. that
stuff is hard.
it is the only place i've hung out at where there are serious women
hackers. that is so rad
after all these years you bastards are finally making me consider
installing linux on my laptop. not even my ex boyfriend could talk me into
it!
i like that there is pushback against too many overly commercial projects
at sudoroom. it …
[View More]creates a safe space. i do not get this safe feeling at
places that are too profit-oriented. it is like eliminating recess at
school and leads to burnout
people actually consider alternatives to current economics models in a
serious way, which I really appreciate even though my views are often
different
it is a place where people forgive each other
there is a hella ton of homemade vegan food at the meetings! that is so
cool. we make it too.
when i lived in the south bay i felt like my brain was dying. students
there did not really go to demonstrations. they did not think that much
about politics or economics.
it was hard to get them to think much about anything. i'm not sure why
this happened but i think it's a structural thing. i'm very lucky to talk
to people at sudoroom who are structurally not mentally destroyed and who
still think and feel passionate

Seems obvious, but I don't think people realize how cheap we can get
thinkpads... thinkpads also last a long time, using superior electronics
components,hinges and other hardware.

If anyone wants to know how to buy thinkpads, I'm willing to sit down with
people and find them cheap computers for hacking.

so my boss this morning suddenly remembered the VM and immediately shut it
down like he said he wouldn't. It is back on now but this means it's time
to move it.
Let me know what I can do to help facilitate a quick move.
