You’ve heard of dry January of course but I’m doing wet January, that’s right, I’m not getting out of this bath for 30 days.

I know we just finished with a big celebration but the next big one starts NOW!

It’s day one of The 25 Days of Ben Brown!! I just 25 days I turn 45, and I have soooo many things on my Amazon wishlist still. What will you buy me?!?!

My friend Bryan Boyer visited yesterday and he told me that Acronym had released a VEST and now I am a guy who wants a $900 vest.

Just look at this thing!!

@benbrown@social.benbrown.com I need to take a second pass at the copy on this website and reduce the jargon by 10,000%

Friends, if you are looking for something to fill these last few hours of 2022 and want to donk around with code, I'm borderline ready to release my self-hosted micro-blogging tool, Shuttlecraft. It is still very early days for the project, but I have been operating my instance for a few weeks now without an outbreak of chaos.

I just recorded some tutorial videos, including a 4 minute demo showing the complete process of setting up an instance on Glitch. Check them out on the website:

This is a new post!

Y'all, while I drank a bunch of cinnamon-spiced beers and ate too much cheese, @tobyjaffey@mastodon.me.uk has submitted 13 pull requests adding features to Shuttlecraft. 🤯

Thanks, dude!!!!

@andre@friend.camp very nice! I wear mine daily.
