I need to make a tag for these kinds of posts.

So, I got around to submitting proof of concept code regarding Tumblr’s open oauth exploit — which, might I add, is still open — to Tumblr. At the suggestion of a friend, I did so on HackerOne. I’ve only gotten one response to my submission so far, and that was — I’m guessing someone working for Tumblr? I don’t know — asking me if I could… replicate the oauth exploit for them. That was, and is, not something I am comfortable doing because a site with a history like Tumblr’s essentially asking me to hack them is absolutely not as good as it sounds. I wouldn’t put it past them to tell me to do that and then get me into some kind of trouble for doing it. I’ve tried to talk to their “site security” about it, and he was bad enough, even though now I have the proof of concept code detailing that this exploit continues to be open and continues to be fairly severe. Like I’ve said in previous posts, this may be a day zero or day one exploit.

I guess we’ll be seeing in the coming days or weeks what Tumblr does with the proof of concept code, or if they continue to ignore it like their entire site has for years. That wouldn’t surprise me one bit if they did.

It’s been this way for awhile, but why not post?

Discord lets you choose layouts if you have Nitro! I liked a lot of them but chose to go with this one.

And regarding what I wrote about in my last post: I would go so far as to say that the majority of my hobbies and interests are encapsulated in what I am — or am not — willing to talk about on Discord. (Notice that I’ve joined absolutely no fandom-related servers, and it’s going to stay that way for as long as I use this thing…)

Let’s just say that I am slightly more likely to want to discuss the fact that I do not believe in god, living in the Bible belt, than I am to want to discuss the “meta” of anything that has a fandom and I am fine with that.

I seriously need to come up with subject lines.

So I’ve decided to dye my hair blue. I’ve been wanting to for a really long time, and I finally decided to do it.

I also reinstalled Duolingo on my phone and am going to attempt to get as far as I can — as far as my brain will let me — in French. I took two years of Spanish in high school and didn’t retain it afterward, although living where I do I know enough to introduce myself and ask for basic needs. Truth be told, I didn’t actually retain a lot of what I learned in secondary school aside from the absolute basics (even though I taught myself a lot of things as well, being precocious). That’s one of many reasons that I’ve chosen to homeschool my children. The district that we currently live in leaves a lot to be desired, and they’re actually taken to court quite frequently for not following the IEPs — Individualized Education Program, which is legally binding — and they lose a lot of times in court. But there are other problems with this school district, and public education as well. They only stack on top of each other and get worse, so this is our way of avoiding it.

In about a year or so, I expect my graduating class to plan and have a twenty-year reunion (and wow, does typing that out make me feel old). I didn’t attend the ten-year one and I have absolutely no desire to attend this one or subsequent ones. I hope they save themselves some trouble and just… don’t invite me at all, heh.

And let me tell you, when I was watching Supernatural I never really listened to the end music. My bad.
