i’m errbufferoverfl (they/them). welcome to my webhouse.
work only takes up 23.81% of my time so instead of making it my whole personality, i fill the rest with:
- making zines about things like who really picks pantone’s colour of the year, the politics of horror movies, and why hot chips deserve more respect
- drawing, painting, and occasionally battling linoleum blocks like they personally wronged me
- reading books i pretend are research (but really just deeply niche interests)
- writing strongly-worded submissions to government consultations
- staring at my plants and wondering if they’re judging me
- staring at my plants and judging them like they judge me
- building things (like oauth servers or random scripts) i may or may not finish
the other 23.81% of my time?
by day, i’m a security engineer focused on security partnerships, working within an app-based browser ecosystem. i mostly write python (because i believe in using the right tool for the job—and sometimes the fun one). I’ve got a bit of a knack for federated identity (if I do say so myself), and i like building little tools that either solve problems or create entirely new ones.
depends on the day.
what’s your favourite…?
thing to do when I’m supposed to be productive? tag books on libby as “want to read” knowing i never will
kitchen utensil with no practical purpose in my life? my silicone rabbit tea infuser, because i never make just one cup of tea
thing to dramatically sigh about? my computer charger being just out of reach
way to assert dominance over inanimate objects? apologising when i bump into them
completely unnecessary step in my routine? putting five extra pillows on my bed
