Following up… the systems experience I’ve worked hard for should have some meaning. The technology that the services we use is built on top of has not matured into something unrecognizable from its ancestors. It’s astounding how many ignorant people have told me I’m an antique.
I remember the internet before the WWW.
A screenshot of the r/videos subreddit showing Bill and Hillary Clinton with the headline "Clintons agree to testify in Epstein investigation." Hillary's facial expression reads like someone putting on a brave face despite being completely tired of some serious shit.
I can't stop giggling at the expression on Hillary's face. I feel like, if I were Hillary, this is the -exact- face I would make. Probably every day for the rest of my life.
the human that invented hot beverages is the GOAT of GOATs.

i don't want to shame a homogeneity kink but
those mfers have boundary problems
Underneath the name Charlie Hebdo is a pile of bloodied dead bodies representing US citizens killed by ICE. The pile of bodies are collected in one corner to represent the stars of the US flag and the streaks of blood caused by them being dragged across the ground form the red and white stripes. In the foreground an armed skinhead officer with an ICE vest is dragging his latest victim with multiple gunshots to join the pile. The world is watching in horror.
Wow.
The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.
It is hella refreshing to be able to post whatever I want on social media, again. It's not like I ever have anything to say that's controversial or worth making a fuss over. Some people have way too much free time and it manifests as asinine drama.

A person who demands loyalty seeks to arrogate your identity.
UIs just keep getting worse and worse... to the point where I no longer want to update anything.

Today didn't go exactly as I'd planned but it's turned out to be a good day nonetheless.
Famed Russian spy hunter Christo Grozev claimed on this podcast four months ago that North Korea hacked the Democratic National Committee in 2016 and passed the info to Russia, which in exchange divulged access to Bangladesh Bank. 🤔 #infosec Passage at 13m 31s:

Not everyone has the privilege of advocating for themselves. If you have spare political capital, consider redistributing your wealth.
I know it's a ways out but the next ChiSec is 20 Nov at Kaiser Tiger (1415 W Randolph St). Last one of 2025 and we'll resume in January. Hope to see all y'all's adorabobble faces. <3
Maybe in my next life I will learn to keep my !@$@#! mouth shut. Seems to late for this one.
We have a small dog who likes to run in between our feet when we're in the kitchen, hoping to benefit from the fruits of our labor. Lately, I have been pondering her earning potential as a middle manager.
welp, i just got the best birthday present of my life.
work is where you go to solve a problem and you find another problem that you have to solve first and then you find another problem you have to solve before that one and you keep pushing those problems onto your stack and oops turns out your stack is a ring buffer.
A blanket being crocheted in the the foreground and the opening of Inglorious Basterds on the television set. Ignore the cabling.
This is one of the things I do with my work frustration. (Ignore the cabling, it's a WIP)
I want you to have health care. I want you to have an education. Because when I have those things, I feel safer. I want you to feel safe, too. So this is what I vote for.
Missed Kickstarter idea: masks with snack pockets.
The actual work I do is how I refresh from dealing with the political bullshit that keeps me from doing the actual work I am supposed to do.
Dear Random Stranger Who Turned My Favorite Coat In To Lost&Found At SJC: you are a diety amongst mortals. May the rest of your life be peaceful and prosperous and full of the approbation that you fully deserve.
