Cybersecurity weather person and award winning shitposter. Shitposting is an anagram of Top Insights. You may be surprised to know I am not representing my employer here and these are not their opinions.

I have Direct Messages disabled - you can send them, but I will never receive them.

Writer, migrant, surprisingly nice in person. I write, these days mostly explainers. Old queer. I would rather be blocked than tone policed. More meme literate than I should be at this age. I mainly shitpost, then sometimes make you cry. ❤️
(I take help, thanks)

Used to help run Fosstodon. These days, I just hang out here.

I work in InfoSec and live with two kids, one wife, two dogs, a blind cat, a flock of chickens, and more fish than I can count.

Also into watches and motorbikes — both riding and wrenching.
