Related: I’m still looking for leads and help on jobs, fellowships, and freelance contracts on drones, GIS, aid, disaster, OSINT, tech ethics, and journalism. I simply will not work for evil people and/or weapons manufacturers, which is also why I haven’t had paying work since Trump 2.0 began.

Drone tech has so many incredible applications for so many industries and if you want to make any sort of living you have to work for an illiterate Nazi pervert dweeb who collects erotic anime figurines.

There’s always a delicate tension between being very direct about “I need help figuring out WTF I do next” with your network versus seeming desperate. (I’m not desperate in that I don’t have money concerns, but I am desperate in that I desperately miss having a career).

I’m also trying to sort out the prospect of starting my own NGO, which REALLY isn’t my first choice but if it appears necessary…

Finally, I’m also (equally god help me) beginning to consider getting back into journalism jobs. I have a lot of highly technical OSINT and data journalism skills and investigative reporting experience, and some people with questionable taste seem to think I’m funny, hit me up….?

If journalism is the way you choose, independent outlets like ProPublica might be interested. And depending on how you feel about some of the newer & smaller outlets like Judd Legum’s Popular Info, Aaron Rupar’s Public Notice, The New Republic, or even one of the sources that Meidas Touch…

Hell yeah. Will try and think if I know anyone. Honestly there is enough talent on here to start our own media company. Abandon substack and embrace !!
