[Tiggi.es defederating from cutiepaws.org] I’ve been made aware of multiple minors posting nsfw content (without CWs, but that’s besides the point) on cutiepaws.org. We’re now limiting them.

Apropos of nothing, I wish that more women who work in HR and other non-technical disciplines understood how high the barrier is for other women who have chosen to work in tech, and were more appreciative of men who go out of their way to find and make sure these women, who have real skills, get […]

Burrs made crawfish etouffee.

Made chocolate honey peanut butter hummus with the leftover chick peas. Let’s see if @VictorKoopa likes it.

[Burr weekend time is free. Right?] Furry: Burrs, I want you to spend time on the phone with me on your time off tomorrow going through my computer to make it perform better. PWEEEEEEEZE?!?! (Note: This fur had their rear exhaust fan reversed last time we spoke years ago and wondered why […]

Burrs made a fresh hatch chili hummus this morning.

Had a great second meeting with the new Security Engineer we hired who I found through the Fediverse. I feel she's going to be an amazing partner. Went out to a churrasqueira with @hypoidbear after getting his gaming PC reinstalled. Worked on getting a new home scent machine up and going. And […]

[Work Stuff] If there’s one thing I wish companies would learn when doing team building exercises - Not everyone is an extrovert. Not everyone gains energy and builds relationships by being forced to interact with colleagues in predetermined, unnatural ways. As a matter of fact, it causes […]

If I’m gonna be stuck at a leadership work offsite, stek ‘n chick’n help.

Don't ask me for my advice, then argue with me about how wrong my advice is because there's things "I don't know." If someone is asking for my advice, it's incumbent upon them to give me any/all information I need in order to render any sort of meaningful response. Otherwise, it's just a waste […]

My second #getfedihired engineer starts today, the first who wasn't in my network before I posted the role here. Fedi's just as valid a place to find folks as LinkedIn, and I'll argue that it's even better, as I get direct access to folks I otherwise wouldn't, and folks have a chance to reach […]

Is this the part where the pope resurrects in 3 days and we have to do the egg thing all over again? Because I was kinda hoping for cheap chocolate today and didn’t feel like waiting until Thursday.

I can appreciate the appeal of something to others, yet not find it appealing myself. I can enjoy someone relaying their enjoying of something that I myself wouldn’t enjoy. There are events that go on that I’m glad others attend, that I myself would never attend. Just like there are things […]

Today, foot the fourth time in a month, a rando has told me that I smell good. Random, but there it is.

I love how ending a reply with “Bless your heart” to folks in the South is tantamount to asking to please be blocked so you don’t have to listen to their drivel any further.

And for 4/20.

Burrday is coming up soon. Debating another solo driving trip to New Orleans for a week. Or possibly driving out to the Southwest by myself.

[MH-] One of those days where I’m mentally wiped and just need silent bellyrubs.

Worlds collide

Anyone want some analogue pocket vinyl skins? Freshly made out of left over rally car vinyl.

Just got my laptop PPF’d with forged carbon fiber while picking up Turtaru mobile

Finally landed. Getting a ride to the shop that did Turtaru Mobile PPF, then home burrs.

Ready to go home. Flight leaves in about an hour 45, then the shop doing PPF on Turtaru Mobile is picking me up, I'm dropping him off, then I'm driving Turtaru mobile back home. I'm going to be wasted Burrs for a while.

Done with my on-site. Have a new fire to meet on Monday. Got a lot of planning done this week. I need a nice, quiet weekend. No more travel for a while.

Lemon garlic butter scallops for Burrs

Burrs are experiencing an earthquake.

Showering up and making a few stops before I head off to Sandy Eggo. Just need to get on the 5 before 2PM or so to avoid the worst of traffic. Muted my work slack notifications since this is a day off before work begins tomorrow.

Heading out of OC tomorrow after a few more stops, then taking the 5 to San Diego for work. Might hit up Micro Center on the way out, though there's nothing I really need.

No Disney today. Going to enjoy a relaxing down day and maybe just get dinner tonight. Don’t need to always be on the go.

At Arcade Shock in Gardena, CA. Bought some stuff for @VictorKoopa along with a new control pad.

Not pho you.

Can’t find any tigs out here. But maybe the owner here wants to be friends with Burrs. Close enough?

Vietnamese breakfast at NEP in Fountain Valley.

I am Brea, CA Burrs. That is all.

🎶 I wish they all could be California Burrs 🎶 I’m at least California Burrs now.

Boarding soon. Who’s meeting Burrs for noms in OC? ;)

Mostly packed up. Doing a team lunch before heading out to the airport, arriving at John Wayne around 6:30 tonight. Just early enough to hit Micro Center in Tustin to see what the tariffs have done to everything.

Debating doing DidneyLan for another day this weekend. Need a Tig to take with.

Whoa oh bad tiggies, mrow mrow rrawrl Whoa oh bad tiggies, mrow mrow rrawrl Bad tiggies gonna bite, mrow mrow rrawrl The tiggies gone wild, mrow mrow rrawrl

Burrs are off to Orange County, CA tomorrow for a long weekend, then off to San Diego for a week of work/planning sessions!

[Work Stuff] So far, I've managed to find 2 great folks via Masto #getfedihired and I've just finished filling out paperwork for one today. I encourage folks out there who have roles to try and use Fedi to find folks - You'll find amazing gems with varied interests who'll be great adds to your […]

[Car stuff] Just got my M2C back from Bright Side Auto Salon. The PPF that was on it from the previous owner was turning yellow and damaged, and not very well installed with huge gaps. I had Bright Side go with Stek film, with carbon fiber PPF on the roof and […] [Original post on tiggi.es]
