i gave away stoner fluxx as a gift immediately (the recipient hated it and also had no sense of humor), gave away women who dare one card at a time at indiegogo, and just found adventure time-themed love letter in an adjacent box. i will now give it to my roommate, who has several board games themed in adventure time and an entire adventure time lego shrine, except a cat got to the rainicorn.
the lego scene is in a temporary state because hijinks. this is a small fraction of it anyway.
haha look at this pile from 2015. business cards from a conference, a backup kiteboarding loop (you use them to attach your lines to your kite), swag pens, benadryl, ricola, spf chapstick, fancy clothing tags. NINETY-EIGHT DOLLARS??? FUCK ME
it’s charging now. we’ll see if it works. it is old. when charging the led turns red. the micro-usb-in is finicky and has to be at the right angle so i wrapped the cord around to keep tension. might be annoying.
and now, keys to who knows where, and all the dead weight i carried every day. the battery in the tile is dead, but the battery in the blizzard authenticator is doing all right! this authenticator is the cockroach of my physical chaff that enables my digital chaff.
why is there a zip tie that something else fell off of? who gave me the J cheerleader? when did i use tiles??? i remember what the orange caphead is for–a tiny permanent sharpie. i loved that thing. i carried it everywhere. it was surprisingly useful. EDC!
this is a wondercube. USB-lightning charging, flashlight, sticky bit under a cover so you can turn it into a phone stand, and micro SD card reader. i actually really admire how they stashed the micro SD card slot inside the USB plug.
i am pretty sure i made this for myself in 1997. all the cheerleaders were assigned football players to make gift packages for. i wish i was joking. at least i had the presence of mind to make myself something while i was at it. you can tell i made it because one of the stars is a glow-in-the-dark bead and the other is clear plastic (the best kind!) with glitter particles.
got it in amsterdam from the first developers of the firefox phone! the person who gave it to me happened to give the talk right after mine at the dutch mobile conference in 20…13? yes 2013 i’m pretty sure. so he was in the room during my talk, which showed off a hackathon project that used d3 on mobile safari. he was jazzed about graphics on a phone so he invited me to visit their office and gave me this firefox phone hoping i’d develop on it.
