Chats on the road to #RSAC2025
All Aboard the Innovation Express: RSAC 2025 Is Rolling In Hot

🎙️✨This one’s a tradition—and we’re keeping it alive.

Every year, Sean Martin, CISSP and I hit the road for RSAC, and every year, we catch up with our friend Cecilia Murtagh Marinier, the force behind RSA Conference’s Innovation and Scholars programs. But this year? They’ve laid new tracks. Literally.

From the 20th anniversary of the Innovation #Sandbox (with $50M in real funding on the table) to #DARPA Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) #AI Cyber City train ride, from brand-new investor and entrepreneur sessions to immersive villages and quiet networking corners—it’s all there. And it’s bigger than ever.

Come along for the ride. 🎧

🧠 It’s cybersecurity innovation, with heart, humor, and human connection.

On Location with Sean & Marco | ITSPmagazine

I'm making it my personal mission to stock up this empty community free pantry for every week in September & at least twice a month, until Winter storms prevent me from being able to get to location safely. This area has some of the poorest people in our local community. I'm going to recruit a few #humanitarian friends to help me keep this community box stocked up. I was upset to see it completely empty today.

Since everyone appears to be doing an #introduction

I'm an #ActuallyAutistic and #ADHD generally stateless being, existing somewhere in the pacific north west, and a few years into my post-late-diagnosis journey of gathering sufficient data to identify what happy means to me and what I need to do to achieve it.

My pronouns are it/she (as in use it/its/she/her interchangeably but I prefer the version that doesn't also assume humanity), I identify more heavily with the #voidpunk movement than I do humans after a lifetime of dehumanization by abusers and NT society, and have been leaning into existing as an energy state rather than attempting to be something I cannot for a reason as inconsequential to me as societal expectation to fit into a neat box.

I do tech by day, and make music by night when I am not also doing tech by night.

I'm glad I finally joined Mastodon. And I'm extra glad I found neurodifferent as a server to join via.

One of the struggles with birdsite I never figured out - and which meant that I rarely if ever used it, except to avoid the stupid popup telling me I needed to log in to keep scrolling to something I'd link clicked on - was the sheer volume of NT bullshit that was there, and would run like an unavoidable oil slick into any search or feed. Interacting with them (even passively) isn't particularly good for my well-being, so I make a habit to stay away from most social media as a result.

Having this individualized approach where everyone on a given instance happens to have a significant overlap in their venn diagram has been so incredibly liberating. Clicking on local and seeing only ND voices is so calming and uplifting, and feels safe, which is rare on the internet.

I deeply believe we are stronger as a #collective and I've been working on adopting as many people into my extended circle as I can IRL to reduce the alienation we all feel.

Thanks @squish for making this thing a thing, the hard work is appreciated.
