I think the word tinkerer is a better fit. You can obviously tweak things while tinkering, and tweakers definitely tinker while tweaking, but to be a tweaker is something completely different.
Master Tinkerer!

....yeah, it does come across better that way.
Crabbing season here in Oregon can start December first or even January depending on the crab quality. We've had some nasty winds and ocean conditions recently, to the point of ZERO fishing boats from San Francisco, north to British Columbia.
Not today. Winds look like 10 mph along the coast. I'm glad grandpa wasn't a fisherman.
All of the orange ones are probably crabbers.
All the images are from Marinrtraffic.com. I check in there a couple times a day just to see who and what's out there. If I pay attention and get lucky, I'll know when a pilot boat is headed out to put a pilot onboard a ship. In that case I can go watch it come in, or better yet, watch them turn the ship around and dock it. They have a turning basin in the bay at the casino. They turn the 660 foot long ship around right in front of the casino and hotel rooms where there's a loooong, wide boardwalk. I'm sure for visitors, it's quite a treat seeing a large ship slowly turning, just 150 feet in front of you. It's fun to watch, mainly because these monsters are almost silent during the process ...the only sound is two tug boats, one on each side, communicating their progress by tooting their horns to each other in Morse code.

Rosie has competition. 
Pretty cool. I bet there are a lot of welders raising little girls that follow in Daddy's footsteps. I'll bet this would be a bigger seller than most could imagine.

Does Facebook have access to my phone calls and texts?
On New Year's eve, I exchanged phone numbers with the contractors employee. He was thinking of working New Year's day. I said I might also, so that's how I got his number.
I don't visit Facebook much.
Last night, I scrolled across "friend suggestions or "you may know" suggestions ...whatever.
His name was the 6th one.
I never new him before this job began a couple days earlier.

I know they read your private messages. My sister is a retired RN. I had a Dr put me on a new med. I asked her by PM what she knew about it. 5 minutes later, I was getting ads for it.

How is that legal? It's one thing if YouTube feeds you ads based on what you watch, but how are they allowed into your phone conversations.

By using the app, or even just using your phone, you are agreeing to give them access to your data. It’s all in the mess of stuff nobody reads in the terms and conditions when you clicked OK on something.
Well if that isn't bad enough, here's some health news.... They don't want you healthy. They want you taking lots and lots of drugs. If they tried to cure your illness it would piss off their stockholders.

I'll dig up Tuckers recent interview. You'll need some blood pressure medicine if you listen just 1/2 way through.
Someone needs to hack into every major media format and play this interview for 12 hours continuously on a Saturday, then Sunday so people know what's happening.
...Vanguard and Blackrock probably own all the media, so I'm just day dreaming. They own major portions of literally everything on earth anyway.

....and if you don't agree, you can't use your phone or view or listen to anything.
Pretty much.
I sent David hunt a text message yesterday morning, then went to check out YouTube.
You know that little notification bell that shows how many people replied to a video you watched or commented on?
.......well, there were three of Davids videos listed. None about trimming and sealing woven seams, but holy crap.
What box did I recently uncheck that allowed this sudden influx of them snooping and spying on me.
