People say #ADHD is a superpower, but let’s be real, it’s a weird mix of challenges and accidental perks. It’s not some quirky gift, but sometimes the worst symptoms end up working in my favor:

How to Get Your Friends & Family on Signal
1️⃣ Have paranoid friends & family. +1 if they think the NSA has a file on them.
2️⃣ Tell them China has infiltrated our communications infrastructure. Not a conspiracy theory—just reality.
3️⃣ Try to explain encryption. They nod like they get it. They don’t.

Got my MIL, FIL, and now my niece on Signal. The family migration to secure comms is in motion. People are done with invasive, enshittified apps, and now’s the perfect time to nudge them toward something better. #Privacy #DigitalFreedom #Signal

NSA to scrub "privilege" from sites/documents
["privilege escalation" refers to a hacker (NSA or otherwise) using any of a number of techniques to gain a higher level of access and ability to do things on a computer - ie. escalate from a normal user level to gain admin-level access/privileges]

Lost my cybersec mentor because they're a fed employee & unable to participate in "DEI efforts"—despite this being through an independent #WomenInCyber program, not the government. Cutting off mentorship like this makes it harder for people trying to break in. #Cybersecurity #MentorshipMatters #DEI

Just spun up Radicale to self-host my calendar & task list this morning because my BuJo couldn't keep up with the chaos of GTD projects. Turns out, my brain needs automation, sync, and a search function more than fancy washi tape. #SelfHosting #GTD #Radicale #Homelab

I meant to be productive. Instead, I spiraled over the best way to self-host a calendar and task list that syncs across my devices. Do I go with Nextcloud or Radicale? No idea. But my brain insists this is urgent, unlike whatever I was actually supposed to be doing. #ADHDproblems #Homelab

A business isn’t just about work, it’s knowing who’s in your corner. Spent today mapping my network—finding clients, connecting with self-employed folx, & seeing who actually matters.
Enough thinking for one day. Logging off before I start networking with my cats instead. 😆 #SmallBusiness #WebDev

Self-care isn’t a luxury—it’s survival. The world is exhausting, and burnout helps no one. Rest, eat, find small joys. Taking care of yourself now means having the energy to handle what comes next. What are you doing to take care of yourself right now? #SelfCareMatters

One of the best perks of having a SysAdmin dad? 👨💻 Suggesting we boost the family’s security with an end-to-end encryption app 🔒 and getting a "Great idea!" instead of blank stares. Now to recruit him for the real battle: converting the rest of the family.

Convincing my entire family to ditch their sketchy messaging apps and switch to Signal. Will I succeed? Or will I be met with 'But Facebook Messenger is fine!'?

After learning cybersecurity, I saw this behind a gas station and laughed my ass off. 🤣 It’s like my old job’s password policy—security theater up top, but wide open where it matters. Just like forcing ‘complex’ passwords while letting everyone cycle through Lastname1, Lastname2, Lastname3... 🙃

Had a great chat with my Reclaiming Employment coach today! Turns out my business vision was way too small when it should’ve been my ✨wildest dream✨—so I leveled it up, and now it’s ridiculously ambitious. 😅 But hey, it’s on paper. Feels good. Who knows? Maybe I’ll actually pull it off. ❤️

My brother's new movie Spellbound just dropped on Netflix today! 🎬 It's about a princess fighting to save her parents, who’ve been turned into monsters. If you’re into magical adventures, give it a watch—it’d mean the world to him (and to me, too). Let us know what you think!

No matter how much ADHD advice I read, none of it seems to stick. Guess we’ve all got our own unique flavor of neurodivergence.
