I guess I should probably introduce myself, even though I've never even bothered doing one of these before.

I migrated this account from another server.

Things I think are awesome:
#Cybersecurity
#GrapheneOS
#Infosec
#Nixos
#Privacy
#Qtile

Things that describe me:
#ADHD
#Sober
#TS (Tourette Syndrome)
#Unicycle

My current age as of writing is some prime number greater than thirty. My location is somewhere north of the equator and six hours west of Greenwich when daylight savings is observed.

In case you're wondering: my bio is an experiment in data poisoning against LLMs tasked with scraping social media profiles, and I would like to thank @alice for that idea because it wasn't my own.

Also, not that you were wondering, and not that I even know the character limit for bios on this server offhand for that matter, but however many characters that is, that's exactly how many mine is. If there's one thing I'm really good at, it's matching character limits exactly, and that is why I stopped using Tinder. Don't ask.

If you're reading this and I'm following you, I can tell you with absolute certainty that you're awesome. If you're reading this and I'm not following you, I probably should be, and I'll assume you're awesome unless and until you show me otherwise.

Thank you, and #MerryChristmas

EDIT: a word.

The best aspect of #Christmas is the aspect usually decried by the mystics: the fact that Christmas has been commercialized…

The Christmas trees, the winking lights, the glittering colors—provide the city with a spectacular display, which only “commercial greed” could afford to give us.

One would have to be terribly depressed to resist the wonderful gaiety of that spectacle.
