an illustration of thomas wearing a green hoodie, holding a to-go coffee cup, and standing next to a yellow bike. he has brown glasses, and a brown beard.

thomas j. hils is bad at poetry and worse at computers. he lives in portland, oregon where he is really into riding bikes, espousing leftist politics, and supporting technology that makes us all free. to feed himself and his domain hobby he builds customer support teams for start-ups. he likes to take photos of his friends.

find me on bluesky and the fediverse.
