What Elon is doing is best described as a hack. He used social engineering to manipulate an easy mark with high level user privilege, then used that access to move quickly through a system to find the money. Now he’s installing backdoors & malware to command and control the entire system.

Nothing loses its value quicker on a single day than an unsold Christmas tree on 12/26. Wait. JD Vance Nov 6.

I wanna thank my music applications lyrics function for revealing just how awful male songwriters have been for decades. Stalkers, abusers, and statutory rapists! It makes all the songs about masturbation seem downright benign.

Blaming Latinos and Asians for moving hard right in double digit points is just more white supremacist bullshit when the issue was, is, and continues to be nasty white people. We should ask why we’ve made being cruel more attractive than being compassionate.

I had to turn off news alerts during work hours because every tidbit of info caused a limbic brain anger response that made getting any work done impossible. Also, my office is next to HR and I’m loud.

Overseeing a corporate security program teaches you that violence follows people into work from home. When you’re meeting with your team, don’t assume everything is fine. Many of us are not fine. Some more than others. Be kind first. Create a space for people to be human.

I was there, now I’m here. May have to go elsewhere. Depends on what happens here.
