Trying to think of a more current example. Maybe Jared Leto. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Nibbler is celebrating #Caturday the best way he knows how: by getting all up in my face. #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #Nibbler #clingasaur npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama I don't share a lot of the commentaries we run - unpaid (on either side) pieces by practitioners - but I really liked this inside look from CISO Ken Deitz at how Secureworks encourages a safety culture. It's got specific actions around four main ideas; I found it interesting, and I hope y'all do too. :) npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama It appears I'm past being done for the day. 😞 npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama I had nothing to say, so I said it. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama The Lady Catherine and Nibbler know that every day is #Caturday . #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #Nibbler #TheLadyCatherine npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama I can't believe I missed out on editing this wicked cool look at the Red Sox #cybersecurity initiatives!

Last year it was easily twice the size, and by the front entrance. Guess the homophobes won. #PrideMonth npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama My niece is graduating high school in a couple weeks, and one of the things she requested is a portable solar charger. I'm doing some research now, but I'd love to hear any recommendations or warnings.

Is it the number of climate change casualties in India? npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama My kid learned about the president of Iran through this Tumblr post. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Little man's purring in his sleep. #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #Nibbler #clingasaur npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1wje…kd27 The wonderful trust!

Can hardly wait for that telehealth call with the neurologist in three weeks! npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1uld…xht3 Yeah, that's true. Martens are very cute.

I also try to avoid politics, at least of the international variety, but I'm failing recently. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub19fc…ay3c I hope you don't mean that - your voice is valuable. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama In case you were wondering why Israel might have shut down Al Jazeera, a little history. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub18c7…er9d Ugh, I'm sorry.

Maybe I can make 15 minutes before sundown. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama My absolute babies.

It's a nice perk. And my manager is great about firmly telling people to take their time off. What a great vase, and how nice that your parents know you so well. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama This is how Nibbler's plans usually end: with a growl and a bop from The Lady Catherine. #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #Nibbler #TheLadyCatherine npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub17lg…9uux To be fair, the company itself claimed it was a suspected nation-state hack in its 8-K: "On February 21, 2024, UnitedHealth Group (the “Company”) identified a suspected nation-state associated cyber security threat actor had gained access to some of the Change Healthcare information technology systems." https://www.sec.gov/ixviewer/ix.html?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0000731766/000073176624000045/unh-20240221.htm npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1sfl…gczt Cabinet corners are hard and stupid.

I hope their parents cry every day in sorrow for their part in making the world worse. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama What's a silly fact about you that you'd like to share? I will start: I was a cheerleader for my church basketball team, the Uni-Unis. (Guess what denomination.) #silly npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama For Dark Reading, Jai Vijayan wrote this interesting piece on how China is positioning the US as the aggressor in their low-key cyberwar (my words; sorry, still on my first coffee): https://www.darkreading.com/cybersecurity-operations/china-dogged-campaign-victim-of-us-hacking npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub17hj…7a0r Oh, I used to follow an ornithologist who would do makeup looks based on birds.

I just need to do something while waiting for my ENT appointment at the end of February. I'm going to keep it up until then, I guess - it's pretty low risk and might have some effect if it's an ear thing. I'm just sort of despairing because I'm even more vertiginous than usual this evening.

He got on my lap when my legs were crossed, and sat there bathing for 10 minutes, until my leg fell asleep. I held him gently and uncrossed my leg, and he barely paused before he went back to bathing. He's so chill. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Dark Reading's Tara Seals did some good reporting on this piece about the Trello data scrape: https://www.darkreading.com/remote-workforce/atlassian-tightens-api-after-hacker-scrapes-15m-trello-profiles npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama They're awfully cute sometimes.

It was so cute how it jumped around and, yes, wagged its tail. I was delighted to find out that was its name. Thank you for reminding me of a happy memory. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Nibbler shakes things up by lying on my lap wrong, somehow.

Resistance is growing. I'm starting to put off minor things, and I've caught myself saying not-nice things about myself out loud. It scares me more than my physical issues. But honestly, they're probably linked. Sigh. Well, at least I got to remember what I'm really like when my brain doesn't tie my shoelaces together. And I can get back to the good space again. Maybe this time won't be as deep or as long as usual. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama A gentle reminder to the covid-cautious who are letting their frustrations with the world turn into spiteful victim-blaming: adults have been forced back to the office (on pain of destitution), children have been forced back to in-person school (on pain of criminal charges for their parents), and your own hermetic lifestyle has been subsidized by the in-person labor of the less fortunate. Sure, some percentage of people are simply dumbasses who don't believe in covid, but even that is a societal failing as much as an individual fault. By applying your own purity test for who deserves social support, you are turning into Reagan Republicans. We're all in this together. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Oh, now this is FUN.

Feel free to tell them about it. I'll also look to see if your book tour is coming near me, because there's such a wait time for this book at my library, but I want to read it. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1ff3…sc33 That is a fantastic idea!

Can y'all share wintry photos as your snow comes in, maybe under #frostodon ? npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama An absolutely gorgeous sunset in Los Angeles tonight. The air was yellow from these clouds. #CloudPorn #clouds #sunset npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1kmk…mtuy We have hidden the knives in an upper cabinet. We're hopeful at this point, as the kid seems to be doing well, but I empathize. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1urf…jtvm @npub16zx…xzxc What this article tells me is what we already knew: Young men need to get their shit together and stop blaming their problems on other people or they'll die alone and unloved. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Bad: I just spilled coffee on the white bib of my cat onesie. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1uld…xht3 I literally gasped. Perfection. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1nac…0mta @npub1gmx…atcq Sometimes you can tell who's had stalkers and who hasn't. Fitness February is one of those times. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama I mean, not for nothing: https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/11/europe/russian-submarine-commander-killed-krasnador-intl/index.html npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama My parent company likes to post fitness challenges and fundraisers and such, with some competition element linked to Strava. To which I silently reply: https://www.darkreading.com/application-security/popular-fitness-apps-leak-location-data-even-when-users-set-privacy-zones npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub18c7…er9d This happens to me a lot. What works for me is having a food that I can always eat when I can't decide what to eat and everything sounds gross. For me, I have taught myself to eat a piece of bread, or at least a corner of one, when I realize I'm shaking and nauseated because I haven't eaten. That helps settle your system so it's back to a place where you can figure out what to eat. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Look at this beautiful beaded bracelet I got from @npub1df5…a3y9 - it's so finely done that it feels like fabric. She has a bunch of other items, mostly earrings, so check it out: https://turtleisland.social/@Tzipporah/111359880159827296 npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1zdp…vqv8 Totally fake. I read someone speculating that they could be hardened centipede eggs (if they look like pearls) or owl pellets (if they look like furry tumors). But it's pure nonsense. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1ccn…czwu I am so sorry. May her memory continue to be a blessing. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama I have always heard people say that love fades and that you need to make sure you have other things in common with your mate or you'll end up drifting apart. It's certainly true that you should have things to do together and talk about with your mate, I'm not discounting that. But I've been with my husband for 22 years now, married for 18, and I still feel about him the same way I did the first time I told him I loved him. I honestly can't believe we've gotten so lucky. I thought love had a shelf life, but maybe it doesn't have to. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub1mxw…w8et @npub19dj…n6qc That goes to a general page. Can you tell me which of that page's links I should click? I can't tell, and this is such an interesting topic. Thank you so much! npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama In other important news, squirrels are bold. #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #Nibbler #TheLadyCatherine #SquirrelsOfMastodon #SquirrelFriend npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama Funding-driven furloughs forced me to leave my government job, and I suspect a fair portion of the EIGHTY PERCENT of CISA employees who are set to get furloughed won't come back.

What a perfect beast. npub16muv2qvzdz8nkxh6ns0mfrqw4annx3nqpe2t94x43l9jnmrjtfpsmgysy4 spiegelmama @npub18c7…er9d @npub1zv2…gngg Oh, I am definitely going to look that up. My kid's developmental specialist said he had the worst sensory issues they'd seen, and I want to figure out how to help and how to help him help himself.
