this shitposty flier was posted all around the con at FE and it’s killing me

(And I'm sorry to leave you folks worrying about me, but I am about to board a plane. >.< I promise I'll be safe for a couple hours, even if I'm crying half the time.

Pretty sure being in the process of moving away from the only person who ever makes this feel better (Suki) isn't helping right now either. >.<

I think I'm safe, but it's horrible to be so broken inside and I would really really really just like to stop hurting right now please. >.<

MH (---, mention of suicide) 

Pretty much a trash fire right now. Finally got some sleep last night, and somehow I'm more tired and terrible feeling, and really, really, really, really just want to die. Some of it is messing up my meds this week (I fall apart under sufficient stress), but most is just wiped out, with my defenses down. Ugh. >.<

Okay. Airport time again! SJC->SAN->TUS to see Dakota for a week! :D (And Ripley and Mac and Sandra and Mew and Binx!)

Bleh, been up so late the last few days that even melatonin didn't knock me out.

Upcoming travel! 

A few folks have asked, so...
March 16th: SJC -> SAN -> TUS
March 23-24th: TUS -> DFW -> LFR -> DUB
April 5th (maybe 12th): DUB -> PHL -> SJC

(Halp!)

I challenge you to find a computer more (or even equally) beautiful than the Sony Hit-Bit HB-F1XD

There's never been even the slightest tinge of desire in acquiring MSX hardware, despite an interest in certain bits of software (I always figured emulation was good enough in this case), until I laid my eyes on the Sony HB-F1XD...

Can tell I'm having a good night when I'm just randomly telling people that I love them. :)

Sometimes it's not the exact same words, but it's always the same meaning. <3

I just realized I'm going to be in Ireland for a work trip during both St. Patrick's Day and Brexit. This should be interesting. XD

Infosec rambling as a result of 'meta' 

“The fediverse” is not a place you have to enter and announce your presence to witness. It’s not a house, it’s not a party. It’s a data stream and most of it is public, and the bits that aren’t are reliant on actors outside of your control to keep private.

Cancelling someone who outed them self as working with the feds isn’t going to keep the feds out. A lot of you know this and to a lot of you it’s symbolic and ideals-based, but it needs to be stated explicitly for those who do not know.

Most of the fediverse is public, most of it is unredactable, most of it is undeniable. Our current security calculus means it’s trivial, once an instance admin (or the wayback machine) gets a hold of your post, to prove you posted it— forever. Even if you delete it.

The fediverse has the same infosec concerns as birdsite did, and more, and worse. It presents opportunities for a better social space, but in the end you need to either limit posts to things you don’t care who sees, or things you’ve done very in depth risk assessment on with deep knowledge the fediverse security and deniability calculus.

That’s a shortcoming of the fediverse and AP. It’s one specific actors are working on fixing, but it’s not there yet and won’t be for some time.

Keep your “stuff” deniable. Keep it off line. The fed taps do not have high visibility accounts like that guy. The fed taps probably do not have accounts.

Just feeling like absolute trash today. All kinds of anxiety and mess and aaaaaaaa. Grabbing some food to see if it'll help, but I think it's a lorazepam night.

Few things in the world make me feel more validated or loved than when my cat comes and curls up next to me on the bed and purrs while I pet her
