Trans people aren't canceling cancer research. Trans people aren't about to cause missed Social Security payments. Trans people aren't betraying Ukraine as it fights for its life. Trans people aren't causing your employer to cut staffing in response to tariffs. They just want to live to get old.

Service dogs are the goodest boys but you cannot pet them. This is not the world's greatest injustice but it could be top 10.

Having to sit in game traffic: 20 minutes Having to pay for a streaming service to watch the game: $15/month Having the option to listen to our intelligent, competent radio broadcast team and NOT Twellman’s hyperbolic, mispronunciation-laden drivel: priceless #SEAvLAFC #SoundersFC

I left audible for libro and have no regrets!

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

By uniting across races, backgrounds, abilities, and genders, our ancestors fought against efforts to exclude Black children from schools, deny women the right to vote, marginalize working people, exclude disabled individuals from the workplace, and erase LGBTQ+ identities. We are resilient.

I don't know how many more times Jews and trans people have to tell you to stop using Nazistack before you finally listen.

Musk has no technical skills whatsoever, but he wants to appear smart. So he takes bits of information like this, told to him by junior engineers, and regurgitates it to appear smart. Musk did this with the Twitter stack and Twitter's senior architects called him out publicly, then he fired them.

If you have a background in archiving physical media, physical data, books, films now is the time for you to start getting as much of that material into your possession as you can because they are coming for every bit of knowledge possible and they are going to keep doing it in lighting strikes.

I hate fascists and bigots even more than I hate the Timbers

Company all hands started with how our people in the LA area were impacted and how the company's helping. Then some time talking about how we're helping the community at large, included reading letters from the community praising specific employees. There's a reason I haven't jumped ship to big tech

We put in all that work for secure auth in AD and it turns out MS-NRPC can still use NTLMv1 regardless. www.silverfort.com/blog/ntlmv1-...

The truth is I lost an expensive piece of army-issue equipment. That suit is going to come out of my pay and it'll take five hundred and ten years to pay for the mark 2 powered combat armor that I lost.
