I'm giving paintings away in exchange for donations to people's favorite charities.
I have created the Art Into the World website to: A) Get my paintings out into the world for people to enjoy, and B) Motivate them to donate to a cause of their choice in the process! Everybody wins!

Asterisk of Shame
A tiny Chrome extension to add an asterisk * following the names of each of the 147 congresspeople who voted to overturn the results of the 2020 election wherever they appear on the web.

Terrible Things Happening in Cold Places
I started writing a blog about one of my dearest niche interests: terrible things happening in cold places. Whether it's explorers wrecking their ships in the Arctic or mountaineering expeditions mysteriously going wrong, I'm interested in it, and I will write about it for you here.

Tiny Skulls and otherwise
Recently I've been sculpting tiny skulls and leaving them out in public as free art for people to find and claim.

Dan Fuehring Lives On
In October 2015, my father and frequent Metafilter contributor Dan Fuehring (better known as Danf) died of cancer. One of his (many) great loves in life was music. You may remember him posting some of his compositions on Mefi Music. I have finally finished cataloguing, publishing and creating an online archive of his music recordings.

9,308 photographs of North Dakota
I got the most detailed map of North Dakota I could find, visited every dot on the map, and photographed something at every single spot.

Cal State PPN
Ever wonder what the patterns of red color on peaches of nectarines are about? Do you know when you should put stone fruit in the fridge - and when you shouldn't? You knew about stems and pits, but did you now that peaches, plums, and nectarines have cheeks — and shoulders? Here's everything you didn't realize you wanted to know about peaches, plums, and nectarines.

Without a Net: Librarians Bridging the Digital Divide
I wrote a book! It's at the printers. I made a website for it that contains the appendix, some supporting information/handouts/links and some other stuff. I used the INFLUX one-pager design (thanks ArcAm) and then I tampered with it. It's fine if you don't buy it. I'm just so happy it's finished.

Meanderthals: A Hiking Blog
I am fortunate to live in a beautiful environment, the mountains of western North Carolina, and have the opportunity to day hike nearly every week, year round. The Blue Ridge Parkway is nearby, as are a couple of national forests, Pisgah and Nantahala. It is fair to say I love to hike. There is information on the web about some of the very popular hikes in this area, but for the most part there is scant trail reporting available. I aim to improve that situation with this hiking blog. I offer experience with trail length and conditions, elevation change, and how to get there. I detail the features along the way with terrain maps and photos. Perhaps if I'm lucky, I will encourage folks to get out and explore the great outdoors.

Not A Douche
An antisocial network for people who feel like they might like a web site where they talk about themselves, but who don't need a new place to talk to others, or to mention boring things like favorite books and movies and quotations.

160 Proof Corsetry
I've been making custom corsets for about ten years, and selling locally for a few years, starting with friends and then getting new sales through word of mouth from previous customers. Since Buffalo's a small city and only so many people want corsets (and most have already bought one or more from me), I've opened an Etsy.
