We need your help again, I really really really hoped our housing problems were finally over and we had a home. The harassment from our new landlord just does not let up whenever either of us set foot in there.
Now completely broke from all this and effectively homeless, again

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites

The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers.

Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

Introducing my new comic book font, Girl Kisser 🧡🤍💖

It's all-caps, really pretty, super soft, and comes with a wide range of glyphs. It's hand-drawn with a micron pen and hand-traced into vectors, and it's perfect for comic book dialogue.

You can find it over here: ko-fi.com/s/b1e9cc34d4

Large center text: "Girl Kisser", with tiny trans, lesbian, and bisexual pride flags poking out of the side.
Top left text: "Designed for use in comics"
Top right text: "Regular • Italic / Bold • Bold Italic", with each in their respective style
Bottom right text: "Manga characters ♪♫��♥※💢〜"
Bottom center text: "Free for commercial use"

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

what always amazes me about people who want to be infosec influencers rather than actual security brains is like, fg has that whole thing about "i don't want my face online" which is smart but then their partner still has old photos of their face on an unprivated ig
