The number of people grieving the loss of Kevin Conroy in my various timelines has confirmed that I’m following the right people.
Hello I require a meme where Lore is impersonating Data on Twitter, they’re both verified, will pay in high praise kthx ππ»
Over at Mastodon, I have a lot of new infosec/cybersecurity followers. I assume y’all followed me because Kevin Beaumont follows me. Kev & I are fandom friends, so you won’t find much infosec content here, but I hope you find something interesting.

Just moved a publication on my CV from “In Progress” to “In Press.” An RA gathered data in 2018-19. A professor & myself wrote the first draft in 2019-20. It’s been submitted 2x, accepted w/revisions & revised, w/an additional author. This is fast for scholarly publishing.

Could the fog be interesting, if I try not to have too much control? Should I read or go look at art or ride the subway back and forth with a notebook?
This is all writing.
