Avatar is a selfie of me standing up, outside, with a neighborhood of palm trees and stucco houses behind me. I'm wearing light sunglasses, red lipstick, and a sleeveless shirt with a balloon animal print. Not shown: my walker. #IIH #IdiopathicIntracranialHypertension #fibromyalgia #disability #TransRights

A Fediverse OG, but my followers count here on infosec.exchange turned off; I write for specific audiences, **not** to accumulate irrelevant numbers of "reactions" from an audience that includes Meta Platform Inc.'s bots built to deceive.

BTW, I built a free, open-source Ruby-based framework that "literally millions" in the SF Bay and PDX metro used on HTTPS. Code was later turned into a "Wordpress App" and an app that is now on Google Play; bigger numbers of millions of people use it.

Came from the dead bird site.
