As the former Vice Chair of the House #HomelandSecurity Committee, Iβm HORRIFIED that the House #GOP appointed Marjorie Taylor Greene #MTG on the committee.
A #QAnon conspiracy theorist and a #January6th insurrectionist doesnβt belong on a committee that exists to fight extremism.
Ron DeSantis is a waste of human tissue and oxygen.
LGBTQ+ families mull leaving Florida in wake of new culture laws
#smashthepatriarchy #ReligiousTrauma #growth I spent decades trying to be The Perfect Christian Woman from Proverbs 31. I worried about being too loud, too strong, & too much; tried to bend & shrink myself to fit patriarchal expectations. Eventually, I divorced religion & my husband. I stretched & grew & became fully myself. Now I know that the only person I need to satisfy is ME.
Oh, now ultimate snowflake Lavern Spicer is claiming Shakespeare never put "pronouns in his plays." π

well, i guess it's time to actually search for a job
http://tef.computer/ is my "please hire me, this is what i've done before" website, but the tl;dr is that i'm an experienced backend engineer with some sre, dba, and security bits for flavour
i'm ideally looking for remote work in us timezones, even though i work in the uk, and i'm especially looking for adhd friendly employers
and frankly, i'm really looking for coding/ic work, rather than yaml janitoring or k8s babysitting
@ScottSoCal and how is it possible to resist #MattSchlapp advances? Lol
@ScottSoCal Yeah, I have done a lot of digging into his past. No one who knew him as a young man is surprised by his actions now. He has always been this guy; he didn't have a chance to prove it on the world stage. You probably know this but in addition to being an actor he was a producer, director, TV executive, and owner of a company with 300 employees. And he has a law degree. The media really should have done better by him than "just a comedian." He wouldn't have had to work so hard to prove himself now.
Greta's first arrest. It's time for many more of us to stand up and risk arrest for the sake of a livable planet. It will turn the tide.

Cancer does not take away our capacity to love. I may be withered and scarred, but I can attend and listen. My remaining time is valuable because I retain the ability to love. Talking to me and allowing me to be with you, these things keep me alive.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
