I got to see 2 long distance besties. One I haven't seen for over a decade that was in town and another for a very last minute visit for lunch. I needed a day like today. 💚🙌🫶

I'm just going to say the truthful part out loud with this. I saw what prison life was like thanks to my mom and her numerous scams she was running and got caught for. I promised myself then I didn't want that for my life. Not at 15 when it all happened and not at 40 today.

I got my account re-activated (thanks to some social engineering on my end) and am back on the Shipt platform to do grocery deliveries again. Just an FYI this is where we are at with the job market and economy again. It's 2020 (also early 2021) bad and it doesn't look to be improving anytime soon.

I am strongly considering imploding my entire life again, just for a little razzle dazzle. 🫠

This is some aaaaaabsolute bullshit. Note for anyone else seeing this, don’t waste your breath on whatever the fuck IndieHackers are.

It floors me when people are like "we need to implement meaningful governance of all AI platforms in use by the organization without creating any friction to the business or adding headcount." Um... What precisely are you expecting here? Please explain what you envision a solution looking like.

Can my zombie clone work for me today? I'm too tired...

Well, the world didn't end yet. So we went for ice cream. My stomach will likely make me regret it anyways, but was worth it.

One thing I hate is how many people in this world will never truly understand the depth of this statement: "I will never be able to see or experience life from your eyes." If more people understood this, the world would be a better place. Yet here we are... 👀🙄🤷‍♀️

Don't forget to follow my meme dealer.

Seriously y'all, IDK who is giving you these templates, but if you thought this was an effective way to engage with buyers, you've got a really warped sense of how to establish a rapport.

We have been talking about the Digital Transformation for 20+ years now, and many organizations still haven’t gotten that right. The world is barreling full speed ahead into the AI Transformation, while still saddled with Digital Transformation problems. 👀😬

As someone who has had to pick themselves up and start over again numerous times, each time I have to I grow even more tired of doing it.

This is what happens when you side with a convicted felon & known p3d0. Malignant narcissists are only ever loyal to themselves. You will be the fall person every single time. Women who turn a blind eye to evil to save their own asses will always be hit by cosmic karma for turning said blind eye. 👁️‍🗨️

Noem ✅ Bondi ✅ Up Next: Gabbard 👀 Leavitt 👀 My prediction is that they use Leavitt's pregnancy to force her to resign versus being "formerly" fired. Then they'll turn her into the poster mom for the trad wife life that these grifters love so much. Pattern recognition so good I might be psychic.

If I could go back and have one thing in life again, it would be the amount of job security and career opportunities I had prior to 2020. Never went more than a month without another job lined up. Those days are absolutely gone now. There is no job loyalty nor security to be found anywhere anymore.

Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility! We're everywhere and we're cool. Here's the trans pride flag 🏳️‍⚧️ on a mid-90s Pentium running DOS.

My base annoyance levels are already at an 8/10 today. This is why I just go non-verbal for days on end sometimes. It's not just for my peace but for everyone else's as well.

Great point. I just read an article about sports betting being legalized causing more delinquencies in the under 40 crowd. But what about the studies on those in the over 60 crowd that spends their entire Thursday afternoon at the slot machines in their local rural gas station up the street. 🤷‍♀️

Remember kids as you go out into the world today, a protest that asks permission and doesn’t disrupt is a rally. A march with a designated route that doesn’t disrupt is a parade. Nothing against either but asking permission does not bring change, organized disruption brings change.

Looking for some insights this morning. I had an old friend recommend to me looking into AI governance type of work for myself since this job market has been challenging to land something full-time for myself. Does anyone have any recommendations for some low cost training courses on the topic?

How was #infosec coachella this week? I want to know the details! #RSAC

I have been saying affirmations into my morning coffee for the past few weeks and I need to stop. I've been saying "cha-ching, ching, ching goes the money tree. Everyone wants to work with me, me, me." Now I am busier than before in the past year. Not complaining, but be careful what you wish for!

I saw this yesterday, and it really resonated for me. "None of the substances I have ever used were abused. They were loved generously and obsessively, near daily." It's why I have struggled for 5 years to refrain from alcohol and maintain minimal use of 🌿. I love them, but they are toxic for me.

OzCon officially booked. Now time to save up for @blueteamcon.com next!!! I am actively offering freelance projects to help crowdfunding it. I am happily accepting companies to sponsor me to be there too. Since I am forever searching for another security research role in this trash job market.

My dream job? Never answering an email again and deleting my LinkedIn. I am so over all the corporate cosplay. Even watering it down as a freelancer currently. I just want to spend my days in a hammock or outdoor couch with a decent book and my spouse plus pups hanging out in yard with me.

Me applying to roles at some of my creditors. Them: "Why do you want to work here?" Me: "Well... Do you want your money back or not? Steady employment helps me make that happen." I just don't care anymore. Freelance or a remote job that meets my skills and keeps bills paid is fine with me.

Blue Team Con 2026 is proud to announce Focivity as a Bronze Sponsor.

Me this morning: "it's St Patrick's Day. It's going to be a lucky day! I feel it." Me after opening my inbox for the day: "nevermind. The horrors persist." I just want a role in direct cybersecurity again. Then I won't get requests for content rewrites from time waster clients with no direction.

Real talk. Anything from Shinedown will forever make me think about my ex sis law. I miss her more than I ever did my ex. All I ever wanted was a sis to enjoy life and music with. I'm forever grateful I have found family others here. I will never, ever think it was impossible to find family again.

Real talk. Sometimes it is hard seeing someone else doing all the things you wanted to be doing. I's especially challenging to see it when it was my OG dream back when I started my blog in 2019. Just yet another reminder that some of us are playing the game of life with a really shitty hand. 😒

Because of fucking course they did. Is anyone suprised? Can ya'll cybercriminal hackers just wipe out our debt for citizens of this country at this point? I'm tired and can't afford to keep up with it anymore. Especially when our griftocracy just hands our data over to whomever they want.

6 years ago today, I woke up to a text from my boss. She told me we needed to work remotely for the next 2 weeks. That 2 weeks then turned into months, until my position was eliminated late that summer. I never got my stuff back from my old desk. However, my life completely changed from that day on.

New life rule implemented. Music is required to start the day.

I am likely going to spending a lot of time this week listing random stuff I need to sell that I do not need on Mercari & Poshmark. If you want links to either, let me know. This job market is THE WORST. I have started journaling my anger & mediating in the morning/evenings. Existing is hard rn. 😒

Hi friends! Apologies if this is a reach. I have lots of clothing from my latest failed side quest that I need to sell off since unemployment ran out this week. No obligation to buy, but any support right now (even just a share/like) would help! Can ship in the US only. themindfulnessdiary.com

I just keep on applying at Huntress and CrowdStrike despite the fact they will likely never hire me and have no'd me after multiple interviews before too. That being said, I said the same about Enterprise and I got hired after the 5th attempt to join the company. Maybe delulu is the solulu. 🤷‍♀️

The fact that the OG Wizard of Oz is being ripped to filth on TikTok (they're calling it cursed) tells me all I need to know about the education and intelligence levels of younger generations. If you don't get it, just say you don't get it. Stop following blindly (i.e. a plot point of the movie). 😒

Can the world at least wait to end until I can move to northern Arizona like I want to first? I just want to go be the damn desert witch that I am, for fuck's sake. 😒😭

I am relieved and impressed A thropic didn't cave, but can they stay the course?

Whole life insurance policies are the biggest scam ever. After paying over $1200 in premiums since 2020, guess how much I netted from it? Only nearly 50% of it. I made more money in an MLM in 2 years than I did in this insurance policy in 6. What a scam.

I may have slightly regretted a doing a few things in life, but I have also not once ever regretted being an absolute menace to society.

hey if anyone wants to help out my venmo is @fadednick its kind of hard to get out and get a second job with the way things are in minnesota plus the 50/50 custody schedule i have. i can't pick up overtime at work cause i'm salaried in healthcare.

Received a sextortion email today. If said attacker was truly “watching” my every move, they’d learn a very important detail they got wrong. I am a late stage perimenopausal millennial. 404: no libido found It’s called MEN-ON-PAUSE for a reason. Dumbass. Are you scammers even trying? Like WTF?

I've said it once and I'll say it again. If my mother randomly DMs me from her account, I'm not calling the police. I'm calling ghost hunters. 🫣👻

Explain this reasoning to me. Insurance company has had my account info to debit it every single month for the premiums I have been paying on my policy (it was inherited) since 2019, but they need a statement, bank account letter, and a canceled check to pay me out the cash value of the policy.

How am I starting my Monday? By crashing the fuck out. I hate anxiety insomina so much.

Had pillow chat with my SO last night where they said "it's all going to work out even though it's hard right now. I know it will." My response? "I know this, but I am tired of putting in the work while everything waits until the 11th hour to show up for me. My nerves can't handle it anymore."
