@catsalad Sage wishes you a happy #Caturday

#Danish is killing me, I swear to god. The soft “d” by itself is bad enough. I think when you see an “a” or an “e” you’re supposed to roll a 20-sided die for initiative.

@wcbdata @kims Do you have Apple Music? https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/colonoscopy-prep/pl.u-Xk9mLFJ8zkM

@kims I created a playlist based on this experience in case you would like to see it

“Heavy force”?? What, is he going to have the tanks leave the parade route and tear up some MORE streets chasing down protesters?

See, kids? When we warned you that the most annoying students in your middle school class might grow up to be running the government, you didn’t believe it. Neither did we, and now look where we are.

Just now realizing that I could have been an email.

Celebrated the start of #Pride month by discussing with my oldest the “malewashing” of the #agender #MurderBot in the TV series

REMINDER: “ally” is one of those titles you can’t claim for yourself; it has to be granted to you by someone who believes you’ve helped. You have to earn it. Get to work. #Pride 🏳️🌈

Unfortunately I can’t make it to Prague in person next week, but I will still be presenting virtually at Qubit: “Same As It Ever Was: Why We Keep Struggling In Cybersecurity.” (They’re moving me to the end of the day to accommodate my timezone.)

The leadership of #RSAC brought Noem in to get her into a room with actual security professionals — something which might not otherwise have happened.

Now, you can find fault with their approach to this administration, and the choice to try initiating a dialogue, but don’t doubt their intentions. They’re good people and are trying to find a way through that helps bring everyone to the table. That’s what the conference is for.

@kluthulhu Do you know the heads of the conference? I do. Believe me, it’s not that simple.

Made it through the keynote at @bsidessf this morning, and I’m so grateful for everyone who showed up and was supportive.

@GossiTheDog If the fundamentals were easy, we would have solved them by now. We need a lot more work in this area.
