Katie Harris is photographed with her Appaloosa. Harris made most of the horse trappings as well as her own traditional outfits herself, including the bead work. Some of the trappings are passed down from older generations but the girls like to make their own to continue the tradition.

Do not attempt to out-malicious-compliance the staff at the malicious compliance conference.

ms-demeanor

Some dipshit decided to pay the conference fee ($250) in quarters. He handed us a wrapped plastic bag full of loose change. "It's all there," he said with a shit-eating grin, "you can count it."

Oh buddy. We're going to count it. What were you expecting?

At about the time I got to $60, he offered to give us $300 collateral so he could get his badge and go to the conference.

No, bud. You get to watch the most dyscalculic staffer count to a thousand while all your friends go in to the breakfast and find seats for the first talk.

"Ruining someone's day" is the favorite hobby of everyone here. Why would you hand us the perfect opportunity to wreck your shit and think that was an own? Half the con is calling him "Untraceable," the other half is calling him "Quarter Boy" and nobody cares what he says his handle is.

I spent an hour counting that and made him go fetch me baggies to hold it every fifty dollars.

This ended up being a good bonus prank for me too, because when the counting was done I wrapped the bags in gaffer's tape and spent the rest of the day handing it to people very casually while saying "oh here, hold this for a sec" and then watching they weren't ready for the weight (I only did this to people I know well enough to know this wouldn't hurt them).

It's an infosec conference, so it's a weekend in a hotel full of people whose favorite thing is breaking the law and whose second favorite thing is following the letter of the law while cheerfully violating the spirit.

Thank you, that means a lot coming from you, @unyanizedcatboys

Yes!

The conference I describe here was actually the conference where we had our first date back in 2005. Somebody snapped a photo of the reg desk while we happened to be checking in twenty years ago:

At that specific conference in 2005 the con was sharing space with a high school prom; I bought a prom dress at a thrift store around the corner (I was eighteen, I blended very well) and went to prom to liberate snacks and see if we could mess with the music, he found the open radio channel the dance security was using and the hackers sat around trying to get the security guys to laugh by running commentary on the students' outfits.

Now I volunteer to work registration every year and I've been designing the programs for the con pretty much since 2007.

The conference has taken place at like eight hotels and has only been permanently banned from three! One time the conference was scheduled at the same time as an Herbalife seminar and a Catholic singles conference. We were banned from that hotel.

Nigerian Pride 🏳️‍🌈🇳🇬

I meant to have this out yesterday. Happy belated pride. :)

sunflowersosa

I'm glad you all like the Nigeria Pride post!

Originally, I went in worried the opposite would happen. Growing up, I've been taught that Nigeria, the country, is homophobic. (I was born in America.) But over time, I learned that there's tons of other queer Nigerians; some are out, and some are in the closet 😭.

I'm also not used to this much attention, lol

Thank you all!

I’m begging of you please don’t take my cat ♪

Please don’t take her just because you can ♫

She talks about you in her sleep—

There’s nothing I can do to keep ♪ From crying when she calls, Poldine,

And I can easily understand How you could easily take my cat ♫

You could have your choice of cats 🎶

Poldine, Poldine ♫ Poldine, Poldiiine I’m begging of you please don’t take my cat ♫

Thank you for watching Poldine & The Cats’ first music video! No cats were harmed in the making of this clip, but two were mortified and one had her fur ruffled in the wrong direction by clumsy baby llama kisses.
