@Buck any advice on contributing anonymously? I tried to figure out how to do it but git doesnt meld well with multiple github accounts. I dont want anything tying my real identity to this site
I created a throwaway GitHub account when I made a couple of PRs; from there all you need to do is make sure that the git log (i.e. your commits) don't reference your real name or email address.
This can all be done via some fuckery in your .gitconfig file. My set up means that I have commit signing and my real name on by default; but my configuration changes if the repository is located in two specific folders.
So for my ~/FOSS folder my name is changed is slightly and my personal email address is used, and for my ~/codefuckery folder a different public key is used, a different email, a different name, and there's no signing enabled.
And that's how I use company resources to be a jerk online

Use a vm or another device. Or you can use multiple ssh keys. I'm sure there are many ways to do this
