I’m sorry, but I’m not going to be able to host #pancakescon this year and I’m going to have to cut off mentoring after currently registered appointments. I hope I’m somewhere safe and stable to resume them in the future. All SANS classes, clinics, and announced talks are on through April. I will not be making any cons beside those in the foreseeable future.
There was this eerie moment driving home from work late last night where turning into my neighborhood I passed a convoy of slow rolling Trump flag vehicles with very conspicuously armed passengers. I slept on my dad’s floor last night. I know exactly what their point was.
GeorgeK@hacks4pancakes after Brexit here in the UK the nasties came forward and there was a sizeable increase in hate crime. I feel for you.
@georgek they have AR-15s here

@georgek @hacks4pancakes I keep forgetting that we are on the timeline where Sandy Hook didn’t move the needle.
*sends hugs from southern France*
@hacks4pancakes I know, every other week there is a story on the news about it. unless only a handful of people being killed, in which case it's just BAU, hence not newsworthy.
spv@hacks4pancakes this reads like a horror movie, jesus
CarmenSD11235@hacks4pancakes please stay safe. The world can not lose you. I'm sorry this country is so full of crap humans if you can call them human. 😢

@hacks4pancakes That must have been terrifying. I'm so heartbroken this is the reality. I'm so sorry.
Magnesium@hacks4pancakes when I was walking through Toronto Union Station I saw someone that looked like you at first glance, but then realized it wasn't you... Hopefully one day it will be
Wendy Nather@hacks4pancakes This is why I refused to watch Civil War when it came out.
Mobile Suit Golem@wendynather @hacks4pancakes that film was also devoid of any meaningful analysis or attempt to base its events in anything close to reality, so you are not missing out.
Nonya Bidniss@hacks4pancakes Jeebus. A vision of our future.
Ed Weadon@hacks4pancakes jesus Lesley, that’s…fucking horrifying

Where was the armed Trump Train? Anne Arundel?
@thepacketrat I flew here this morning…
@hacks4pancakes glad to have you here. Holler at me if you need anything, please.
@thepacketrat 100 hugs
@hacks4pancakes can accomodate that request.

Do what you can.
We're IRL strangers & I gather you could kick my ass, but if some bizarre twist of fate gives you the impression I can help in some way - don't think twice.

@hacks4pancakes this is difficult to imagine this and comprehend how this is even possible.
Take care

Theodore Peterson@hacks4pancakes I look forward to your talk at ISF World Congress. 
@Shhted thank you. I’ll be there, but it’s going to be a little scary. Don’t tell anyone please. I’ll give a good talk.

@hacks4pancakes Just woke and saw the news. I'm so sorry, dearheart. I have nothing to offer but best wishes (I'd offer a floor to sleep on if I had one). And thanks for your generous posts -- I've gained a great deal of context and tactical hope from you. 🍀 ✊ 🥰
rthonpm@hacks4pancakes Disappointing as you've helped a lot of people but your personal safety and well-being need to be your first priority.
Mathias@hacks4pancakes Thank you for all you have been doing for the community. Now is a time that you need to take care of yourself.
Metacurity@hacks4pancakes I hope you find yourself someplace stable soon.
Stephen K 🔑☢️⚛️🇺🇦 @hacks4pancakes I am afraid too, I don't know where this is going but nowhere good is my guess.
AnneH@hacks4pancakes Stay safe. Try not to leave a trail if McCarthyism is returning.
Steve "Looking for Work" Pordon (he/him/his)@hacks4pancakes you're apologizing because you're you, but you don't need to apologize. Safety first, always. 💔
coderipper@hacks4pancakes It is a dark day and I am gutted for you. Please stay safe wherever you go. <3
Danny Palmer@hacks4pancakes Thinking of you, Lesley. I'm so sorry. Obviously got an outsider view here, but i'm struggling to understand why this has happened. Again. :/
Deejacker@hacks4pancakes Thoughts are with you all, from across the pond. Stay safe, be strong!
Martin Boller 
@hacks4pancakes Not worth much, but hugs and support from tiny .dk
standev@hacks4pancakes I’m sorry too. I hope your plan works out, and if there is anything I can do, I am on board to help.
@Cosine 
🇺🇦@hacks4pancakes You've given so much & so freely to the community for so many years! Even great leaders must take time to do what's right for you. Take care & be strong for you now, #pancakescon can come back if & when it's time again. Pause & recharge. There's more left on the other side in time. We care. #selfcare
