IDK man, but this DEI hire is teaching a 6 day class on industrial cybersecurity while also keeping up with a DFIR job while also selling a house and doing two visa applications alone while all this shit waves is going on. And even cleaned the gutters. But it’s probably because I have t**s.

This shit hurts extra because I had zero legs up in just about anything I have achieved in my career or hobbies, and doing it all before substantial DEI initiatives made it so a lot of people in authority told me to fuck off no matter how hard I worked. It took me years to break into professional cybersecurity. Nobody would mentor me. Professional groups made it purposefully uncomfortable to join. My degree program was 95% men. I had to room with another career in Air Force training. I smiled and shut up through rape jokes and studied alone.

I’ve dedicated so much of my life to making sure nobody else hit those same real road blocks in mentoring and finding jobs, but almost all the progress we have made in my lifetime in the US is just gone, overnight.
