It's Friday.

Reviews came down today at work. I learned I need to have my head on a swivel.

I feel like dogshit today. Nose running, back aching, leg aching, stomach ache.

I hope y'all are doing better than I am at the moment.

@rallias Head on a swivel, eh? That doesn't sound good.

Hope you're able to get some rest this weekend and feel better soon!

@XenoPhage @rallias yeah, trying to do anything while you're sick other than recovering from being sick pretty much sucks. Makes dealing with non-physical things like job anxiety that much harder. Hope you're feeling better soon.

For my part, trying to get all my ducks in a row for RSA and client work next week. Doing a few interviews about emerging tech security that I'm excited about too.

It's... well 10 minutes into Friday.

I've officially gotten pissed off at these patches. I have an appointment in the morning to try to get them to switch me to pills.

I don't know if it's placebo or just life's shitting bricks or if it is an actual effect from the patches, but I have noticed myself more emotional lately.

Also, my notifications this last week have been blasted... I made ONE joke about email regex...

My boss got fired yesterday. I now report to his boss, and I won’t do that for a moment longer than is absolutely necessary.

Yep. And GovCIO (contractor for VA) fired 30% 2 days ago. And somehow, I kept my job through this round.

I'm still looking though. I need out of the federal ecosystem.

By the time they're done with all the cuts, there won't be a department to work in left. And we'll be destroyed anyways since 'we cant do our jobs'.

It's friday y'all.

That's all I really have. I don't have any words of great wisdom, this is not such a place. I do not have any great quips, my fucks have gone out to pasture. I'm just sat here, hoping to find a new job, hoping to find something fun to do, just something.

@rallias taking today off (mostly, no meetings but a little email catch-up) after exhausting my social and mental capacity last week (RSAC) and this week (all the follow-up work I generated for myself at RSAC). Blue skies, warm weather, getting some replacement patio cushions for the ones that have been threadbare a few years now ... there will probably be grilling happening later on <3

It's Friday y'all.

Google Photos decided to remind me of a phtoograph I took of myself 7 years ago yesterday. It was some headshot, probably for finding a job or sommat. But, like, I saw that, and it's soured my mood, because if I hadn't had my head so far up my own fucking ass back then, I could have started this journey then, not now.

Past me was an utter jackass.

@rallias happy Friday! Sounds like Google was a jerk. Give yourself some grace - hindsight is always 20/20!

This weekend is a strawberry festival and I’m excited. I also should be at hacker summer camp so super excited! @darkuncle @crankylinuxuser @ajn142 @XenoPhage @nuintari @mav @sciaticnerd @dntlookbehindu @pivot @jwgoerlich @Aneilan @dustinfinn @jerry @thegibson @firefly @lintile @JaysonEStreet @circuitswan @montar @cillic @D4rkm4tter @threadzilla @gillis @brianrphillips @lil_lost @zenrandom @failOpen @BabblingGeek @rand0h @Ajediday @JNitterauer @rayredacted

Yep, Google and Facebook are both terrible in this regard: "I remember what you did X years ago and will never let you forget it!"

@crankylinuxuser on the other hand: my absolute favorite phone widget is the thing that shows me photos from my album like 10-15 years ago, when my kids were all cute and small. 🥰 Remembering those good times from the past is a good mental health practice for today.

ACAB but thanks to the ones who helped locate our nonverbal kid when he eloped this morning.

@ajn142 eloped? I'm not sure if congrats are in order or not.. is this a good or bad thing?

Elope in the 2b sense… it’s how his therapy program has always described him trying to escape the room, I may be co-opting their terminology.

@ajn142 my oldest is on the spectrum and that’s exactly where she’d end up
