I should probably do a proper masto

I'm Vicky. I'm a librarian focusing on research reproducibility + research data management.
I gave an interview about me/my work recently: acrl.ala.org/dh/2018/04/04/rep

I love FOSS, open access, open educational resources, open EVERYTHING

I hate the corporate capture of scholarship

I co-founded an open source, open access repo for LIS scholarship: lissarchive.org

I also love my super cute black cat Little Boss & my partner @remram44

wait today is also twin peaks day! I have a twin peaks tattoo but apparently no photos. trust me, it's there. catch me with shorts/a skirt on. it's cute.

anyway, happy twin peaks day and go forth to eat cherry pie!

Hi #lazyDIYweb !

I'm looking to get a laser level for some projects around here (pavers, kitchen/bathroom remodels, etc) and I notice that the DeWalt laser level is around $140 whereas there are other off-brand self-leveling ones that are in the $40 range.

Why?

What do you recommend?

Looking for a fourth player for a roll20 #DnD game biweekly Sunday mornings (USA).

The other three players are all beginners, so I'm thinking it would be cool if it were an all-beginner game so that everyone would be on equal footing.

DM if interested.
