Are you going to eat *all* of those chips?

A small gray and brown wire-haired mutt with her paws on my leg as I'm reclining in a chair. She's gazing intently at the camera, trying to be as cute as possible (which is pretty darn cute).

#NationalBlackDogDay #DogsofMastodon Here is my previous pack of black dogs, although they have gone considerably gray by the time of this photo. Sadly, all have gone to the great dog park in the sky now...

Three black Chihuahua-mix dogs snuggled in one dog bed. They range from about 20 pounds down to 4.5 pounds. The largest (and oldest) dog looks annoyed at sharing her bed with the other two; her companions are blissfully asleep, unconcerned with her feelings on the matter!

After 14 years of love, Baby Heidi took her last trip to the vet this afternoon. Bestest girl ever will be loved always. 😪💔 #dogsofmastodon

Oh, and I should mention that if you are looking for #infosec work in the #Portland area (#Wilsonville) hit me up via DM especially if you have some Linux skill and/or speak Spanish. #GetFediHired

Anybody got a speaking gig for me? Keynote, endowed lecture, guest lecture series, residency, visiting professorship? I lost my job to Vladimir Putin when the spiking heating-gas price messed up my uni's finances. Right now it looks like I'll start burning my savings in mid-November if nothing […]

Decisions, decisions! Do I watch "Monty Python's Life of Brian" tonight, or wait until tomorrow? 🤔

Now that I'm a grown-ass adult with my own money and all, why don't I have a giant chocolate Easter bunny?

Some regrettable personal news: As of ~45 mins ago I am no longer employed. I'm still trying to find my bearings, but would be gateful for whatever leads y'all have. (I will say more in a bit, once I actually have the time to spare) #GetFediHired

Abolish DHS is not an outrageous ask. Whatever necessary parts exist could be returned to their original departments. DHS is now the fascism accelerator many warned it would become.
