Public service announcement. A new scam call and this one is likely to scare a ton of people.
Just got a call from "officer so and so" from "homeland security." Asked for me and told me they were doing an investigation and wanted to come by and do an interview with me.

So, was doing an online check in for an upcoming medical appointment. Had to answer 2 NEW questions I have not seen before:
1. whether my partner was male/female or both
2. What kind of birth control I use.
Unfortunately there was no place to put F***K off for either one.

As if there isn't enough in the world, now there is plastic rain.

Many of you are far too young to remember acid rain, but for a while it was a huge problem. With environmental controls and work it was pretty much alleviated.
NOW we have plastic rain.

We got rid of acid rain. Now something scarier is falling from the sky.
Here’s why you should never, ever drink the rain.

The Democrats on the House Science Committee have set up a website to collect stories from fired federal employees, anonymously if desired. Please amplify. (This helps the lawyers establish standing for bringing legal cases against the administration!)

Wonder how JD came out of nowhere? Is current happening chaos or some sort of long term plan?
Reads like tin-foil hat, but it's a lot scarier than that. Oh, it's also long - grab a cup of coffee or .... a whiskey.

yeah in case ppl thought calling this segregation was hyperbole. it's not. they are absolutely reinstituting whites-only policy
Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.

We all know about popular pin codes. How about pin codes - yes there are popular ones as well, like 1234 (sigh).

If you are using any of these, you might think about changing them.
Is your PIN code among the first ones hackers are likely to try?
The ABC analysed 29 million stolen codes to help you avoid using an insecure one.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience.

What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?
You guys need to see this and take it in…

Wise words from someone who is a target. And he’s been listening.

If you’re in an institution doing any kind of DEI work, the most important thing to do right now is simply call it something else. Change it to “Community Outreach” & then keep on doing the same important work. When they outlaw Community Outreach rebrand it as “Strategic Partnerships,” rinse/repeat.
