K. Ryabitsev-Prime 🍁

PSA: My (almost adult now) children are interested in switching to using hyphenated family names of both their parents. It's going to take some effort to update all their legal paperwork, but to support them I'm going to start using the hyphenated family name in that format as well -- at least unofficially. I'm still the same person and you can still just call me "Kay."

(Yes, yes, I know "Ryabitsev-Prime" is a mouthful and sounds like an alien world or a doomsday comet. You're just jealous.)

@monsieuricon now I've been remembered of "Pandora's Star" and I'm half-terrified 🤣

@monsieuricon I’ve always wondered if the hyphenated names make using your “mother’s maiden name” useless as a security word for banks?

@rostedt If your bank still uses "your mother's maiden name" as a security measure, you should find a different bank.

@monsieuricon Honestly, I just thought "Optimus-Prime's Slavic Brother"...
