HR has my diet preferences listed as "conventional" and honestly, I'm a little offended.

I think this might be a situation where power dynamics matter. I have a large-ish account and not everyone appreciates the attention.

So I sometimes come across people who view quoting as de-facto hostile.

How do people on the BlueSkies feel about being quote-skeeted? Maybe half of my posts are quotes, usually because I agree with the poster and I have something to add, but a lot of people quote-skeet primarily for dunking or a quote from a big account brings assholes to their mentions...

I'm quoting this whole thread, but I mostly want to highlight David's point about how Alito (and, honestly, so many other people) doesn't see sex censorship as censorship.

These are some exceptionally fat salaries considering that they are currently trying to hire a CISO in NYC for $255k.

People who spend the most time talking like that are usually people who have never organized so much as a bake sale.

Seriously, this is a position of power and influence and I would love to see it go to a person who will use it for great justice.

Hard same. But I have been through so many of these and now is the time to break out every single coping mechanism and hope that something sticks.

Working on projects that help to protect human rights even when the law does not is my personal equivalent of touching grass right now.

if you're wondering what to do in this moment, find an *existing* project and ask how to support it. there's not enough time to launch a bunch of new projects that hit the same early-stage stumbling blocks... (disregard and carry on if you already know what to do, i'm sure you're doing it)

If I was a Canadian taxpayer, I would be pretty mad. That guy is garbage and he will never stop trying to stage a comeback. It's pathological.

Today I was reminded that that one particular rapist who keeps trying to return to the hacker community convinced some documentarians to make a whole movie about how he is really innocent and no one watched it or cared, which I think is absolutely the fate this guy deserves.

WikiLeaks has two legacies: transparency sites that work with journalists and the public, and a wave of geopolitical influence operations that launder stolen documents. My WashPost story is free for nonsubscribers who cough up an email address. wapo.st/4bjRvHF #wikileaks #assange #ddosecrets

You can get covid outside though (ask me how I know). And crowds are especially great at spreading it. So banning masks at protests is effectively asking people to choose between engaging in protected speech or getting covid.
