 I’ve decided that adulting means putting more and more appointments on your calendar further and further out until you die 
 Re MS 365 breach, a non-exhaustive list of questions for CISA’s review board:

 Next week I’ll be back at the Tactical Edge CISO Summit in beautiful Santa Marta, Colombia! I’m not planning to run my own workshop session, but you never know what discussions will pop up …

 I want my email client to offer totally random responses for my draft email, like:

- What were you THINKING??
- Boy howdy, that’s a lot to unpack.
- Negatory on that one, good buddy.
- I’ll see you on the Zooms. Bring your second.
- Too long; didn’t read. Send me a Slack instead.
- Did you really mean to send me that attachment?
- Shhh, not over an open channel!
- If I feel like it, sure.
- Hail Eris!*

 Note for new followers: if you’re looking for informative posts on cybersecurity/infosec, you’ve come to the wrong place. Yes, that’s my day job, but Mastodon is more of an escape for me. I post random thoughts, boost whatever I feel like, and respond to a few conversations. 

In short, I’m tired. It’s been a very tough decade for me, and every time I feel like I’m starting to recover, something else whacks me upside the head. So if you like my curation of other people’s posts, great. But I generally save my deep thinking for work; you’re better off hearing me speak than reading this feed.
