ScottinSoCal 🇺🇦 🕊 🏳‍🌈 @ScottSoCal@computerfairi.es

In case you haven't heard, Red Hat is laying off people today, and I'm one of them. My 'career' as a Hatter lasted just over 15 months, much less time than I had planned or expected.

Many of you know me well, and know that I have extensive background in open source software, project management, open source business, and lots of related activities. If you're aware of any opportunities which may be of interest, feel free to send them my way via any channel you like.

Boosts much appreciated, of course, and thanks in advance!

dear #mastodon,

which timeline/feature do you tend to spend the most time on?

p.s. please consider boosting for a more meaningful sample size.

@ScottSoCal even with the cloak! So many ships!! Also, plenty of time from the moment those two shot the cloaking device until they got to the bridge! 😁 I’m just kidding here. It doesn’t really matter 😆

#potatoLife #love is:

noticing an extraordinarily large cheeto deep in the party-size bag

using chopsticks to extract it from the sea of average-sized cheetos

offering it to your partner excitedly, interrupting their zoom meeting in the process

and then dropping it on the floor while trying to feed it to them ​

(he ate it anyway because he's grown to expect things like this from his potato ​)

Hey #writers!

My publication is looking for more writers!

Do you consider yourself a fan of #philosophy? Are you a #thinker? Do you have a passion for any #religion, #belief system, or way of life? Or, have you experienced troubles, successes, or failures in your past that others may learn from?

If so, we are looking for you!

This is on a volunteer basis, with no requirements or payment. If you're already writing a blog, I'd love to help spread the word about your site!

Find out more info below!

I'm going to try to get back to doing at least on draw & chat each week. What characters or properties would you like to see me tackle?

Reminder, Republican billionaire donors adore it when pro-democracy advocates squabble amongst themselves.

It builds their favorite false narrative "Dems in Disarray".

Focus on the important issues:
1. Preserve democracy
2. Preserve the planet
3. Preserve civil rights

You'd think ol' Tucker is a host looking for a network. Oddly enough, he's the one looking for a host right now, being a parasite and all.

Ohhhh it’s time for.. Picard SPOILERSSSS!!! - It’s been 3 days, it’s officially a you problem.

In no particular order…

Is Q visiting Jack before he tries to screw up the past in season 2 or what?

Will there be a show with the crew of the new Enterprise?

I was so hoping to see Admiral Janeway. 😭

Also, weren’t they shooting down the unassimilated ships? They were running around against a thousand ships. 🤷‍♀️

For Valentyn, a Ukrainian soldier in the Donetsk region, the war’s death toll is more than a statistic.

He is tasked with moving wounded troops — and dead bodies — away from the front lines, often under russian fire.

This project is the brainchild of one of my oldest friends, who is truly a maniac and has a track record of pulling off things like this.

He’s starting a business electrifying classics, and this is going to be his flagship.

The old geezer who had this in a barn since 1978 delivered it to our workshop this morning with a few of his hotrod cronies.

Now it begins! 🤓

I’m starstruck over this woman. I’ve been a Californian for a long time, but I was born & raised in a #blue Texas, & one of my most fervent wishes is to see it blue again. #Texas desperately needs leaders like Hon. #LinaHidalgo . https://apple.news/AMKZPuW9dRgGA4LIGmHZPZg

The Air Quality Control Commission approved a California-style mandate for medium- and heavy-duty truck manufacturers to sell clean electric models in Colorado beginning in 2027.

So, don’t quote me, but I hear Carl’s son is out as a fox tucker.

Far-right Britain First party given Twitter gold tick

I'm so sorry you have had to endure that. It sounds very unfair. Sadly, sometimes "our own" can be the worst.

It's good to know you are taking steps to care for & protect yourself. If you wish to talk with someone, you can always drop me a message.

I wish you light & healing. 💚
