I am a pissed off data nerd. When the company I work for had a data breach 3 years ago, it cost us millions of dollars in penalties and we had to spend A LOT of money to harden our cybersecurity posture. Yet DOGE bros can just go into formerly secure federal databases and no one bats an eye.

Crocheted scrap blanket with all the fuzzy yarn left in my stash. This one took less than a week of puttering in the evenings after work. I wrestled this out from under of my dogs to fold it and take a pic. It’s the dogs’ blanket now. #crochet

Yes, yes, I mist be reminded that I looked at saltine crackers recently and I must look again! Fix the algorithm so you know I bought them in my last grocery order. I won’t be interested in this item again until this box runs low.
