I need Americans to hate this administration the way Kendrick hates Drake so they can actually stand a chance of surviving

Security steps to take if you use an iPhone: 1. Make sure you have an alphanumberic passcode, not a PIN. 2. For even remotely sensitive conversations, Use iMessage ONLY. Signal for cross-ecosystem chats. 1/?

Call for DC33 Hotline volunteers!!! A good candidate might simply be that one person all of their friends come to when they need someone to talk to. This will be a full-time con goon position, working a full shift each of the 4 days of con. Please contact me to interview! 🙂 1/2
