 you're on port 8448, which is unusual.
+faq: how do I get an apostrophe? you can just glue strings, be they double-apostrophe or double-quote, together immediately:
+<code>
+#password is asdf'fdsa
+pw='asdf'"'"'fdsa'
+</code>
+we're going to do the same to glue the password in.
+username doesn't have to be your //full// username. (less-past adam here: idk wtf he means. just do full. @user:greyn.club.)
 <code>
 pw='PASSWORD'
 echo $pw
-curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"USERNAME", "password":"$pw"}' "https://greyn.club:8448/_matrix/client/r0/login"
+curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"USERNAME", "password":"'"$pw"'"}' "https://greyn.club:8448/_matrix/client/r0/login"
 </code>
 that'll give you back a json object, including an access token
+now for extra fun: get yourself ''jq''. take the json you get back, pipe it to jq, tell jq you just want the access_token.
+<code>
+pw='PASSWORD'
+username='@USERNAME:greyn.club'
+echo $pw
+token=$(curl -XPOST -d '{"type":"m.login.password", "user":"'"$username"'", "password":"'"$pw"'"}' "https://greyn.club:8448/_matrix/client/r0/login" | jq .access_token --raw-output)
+echo $token
