Dutch, He/Him. Nickname predates the 2 culture wars which people could read into it (by decades), I just refuse to change it because they are the ones who suck. I can be a bit verbose.

my dad kept his passwords in a scruffy little notebook, which was a huge relief when he died and we had to sort out his affairs - god knows how long it would have taken if they were all in an online password manager

no, you're wrong. using one of these books is infinitely preferable to someone using nothing but a reused password 9,000 times. they're especially good for older people who don't go out much. if your book is at risk in your home, you have bigger problems than "they're going to steal my amazon login"

A billionaire known as “Bitcoin Jesus” was under indictment for massive criminal tax fraud and very likely going to prison.

Then, he hired a “Friend of Trump” and the criminal charges disappeared.

How did they do it? Avi Asher-Schapiro and I spent months getting the inside story.

I shared a scan of the cover of this issue of Dragon magazine a couple of weeks back, but then spotted it on eBay for a couple of quid earlier in the week.

It's still such a cool piece of art in its own right, and got some great articles.💜 And yep, still powerful Shadowrun Feuerschwinge vibes.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

My fucking birthday is in three weeks and all i want is to be able to pay our rent and bills. We need at least $1500 USD, ultimately. Gonna try to hit up my dad for some of that but if you can help, please, please do.
Folks, we've MAYBE got the internet covered but we're behind as hell on other bills and i'm not going to make enough this month to cover February rent. If you can help, cashapp is $AdrienneLeigh or PayPal is below.
If you want a tarot reading, chip in $20 (3-card) or $50 (10-card) and DM me!
Pay Utilitarienne using PayPal.Me
Go to paypal.me/utilitarienne and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

My group was able to recover a spent canister from a green smoke grenade in Minneapolis. We now confirm with physical evidence that it was a green signaling grenade.

Please don't spread rumors about hexachloroethane or nerve agents.

Thinking about how bsky has the most horrible setting turned on by default that says "i don't want to see any other languages except English" and if no one tells you to put it on "no selection" you straight up won't see posts from people set to different languages on your TL.
And if you feel like it's getting worse, yes, it is. Non US traffic here is minimal. And criticising it, you get "skill issue" or "it's not an echo chamber!"

one of the most hilarious* things about america and its preoccupation of being The Most Freedom Country is that it has an unprecedented surveillance network that is trivially available to government that government didn't even have to pay for, it tricked its citizens/residents into buying it
“Safety experts and tech critics have long condemned the Ring devices for security risks and privacy violations, not to mention their role in building the largest civilian surveillance network in US history.”

Online activists are telling owners of Ring Doorbell cameras that it's time to get rid of their devices, which can be used by ICE.

Sometimes, you spend years without portfolio updates, other times you're drowning in material. Time to start updating my portfolio before it gets to that point, I suppose.

Since a lot of people in replies seem not to know this: Trump is unfortunately not hallucinating the "daddy" thing. It says obvious things about him how much he loves it and keeps talking about it, but all the more reason why Rutte shouldn't have said it.

This is super important. Folks who are organizing in Mpls (and everywhere else!) need to practice good opsec and good public comms. There are resources available to learn this stuff!
If you don’t know someone or can’t vet them through mutual connections, don’t talk to them.
Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.
