The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts. "Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷♀️

#TwitterMigration refusnik. Lives in reality and wants to make it nicer for all. Politics, Corporate Accountability and the danger that is now Social Media/AdTech/Surveillance. Seek the truth. Support independent journalists of quality. Support MeidasTouch, ProPublica, etc
I'm a retired, General Officer level U.S. Army Intelligence leader who's been in INFOSEC since the 1980s, when it was mostly mainframes & Novell. Certifications came after, when I was off leading in the PSYOP / counternarrative side of IO, so I don't have any & cannot claim to be any sort of technical expert--but I can still (in sha' Allah) talk intelligently with folks who ARE technical experts & help connect such discourse to strategic outcomes. I'm also coming onboard as Associate Director of an academic Global & National Security Policy Institute, a Twitter refugee sold on the fediverse as the most resilient architecture to avoid getting co-opted by billionaires or governments, an observant Muslim & aspiring alim, and a senior EDUCATIONAL Technology scholar. As I said in my old Twitter bio, "Yep--weird." :-D

Hello! I love nature, animals, history, travel, compassion & thoughtfulness. Despise all things right wing. The entire republiKKKan party must be scraped & thrown back into the garbage.

California, personal finance, biotech/healthcare, outdoors, urbanism, travel. Avid flaneur. I support CA High Speed Rail. Pray for DJT (Psalms 109:8 🤪) Welcome to the kakistocracy

Recovering American in the Netherlands. Queer, universalist, antifa, filker, once and future technical journalist, trying to fix the world one tiny bit at a time. Music and cooking are love. Trying my hand at music promotion (Planning a concert in NL? Hit me up). Originally joined Mastodon in November 2022 BN.

Fediverse since 2017. Optimist mugged by reality, still. Billionaires shouldn't exist. NAFOtastic. Camouflaged, at times. Sec cleared. Troglodyte, tech savvy luddite, part time gray Jedi, not-quite-erudite grudge holder and netizen extraordinaire. Humorless people stay the hell away. Opinions and fluids expressed solely mine. Go find your own. NO LLMs. Do NOT scrape my info.
I am a proud father of two amazing children, I have a wonderful wife who is also a teacher. I love playing music, guitar mostly, but I like other stringed instruments. I love to make things with my hands and with machines controlled by my hands. I am worried about our children's future and feel that I most closely align with #anarchy Now on pixelfed: @numbercrow
