Most people aren't politics junkies. If you want to change the world, you have to accept that and act accordingly.

Donald Trump understands this point. Would be nice if more people on the left did. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/07/14/trumps-2024-media-play-less-cable-more-barstool-00106256

Fortinet researchers show how the CVE-2021-40444 & CVE-2022-30190 remote code execution vulnerabilities allowed attackers to embed malicious macros within Microsoft documents that, when executed, dropped the LokiBot malware onto the victim's system. https://www.fortinet.com/blog/threat-research/lokibot-targets-microsoft-office-document-using-vulnerabilities-and-macros

Jim Jordan's clown committee and GOP sedition caucus once again used tactics often attributed to Nazi propagandist Joeseph Goebbels in attacking the FBI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyQf-_e2JEk

For the creatives here on Mastodon I'd like to share a website that witnesses your work for the purposes of copyright protection. An important issue and perhaps a site that can provide some reassurance. Take a look.

My union, SAG-AFTRA, is striking in Hollywood. It represents 160K movie and TV actors, as well as about 500 staffers at NPR. We journalists are not part of this strike but we support our fellow union workers!!!! ❤️ ❤️
I was never part of a union before coming to NPR but quickly learned the power of colleagues helping each other to be treated fairly at work!!!

Every day corporation do something worse and worse and they wind up paying less and less in fines

You want fines? Start at 100% of what they gained from their misdeeds

And if corporations are people then punish them like people. Corporate death penalty (judicial dissolution) for the worst offenders

When the punishment for a crime is a fine then the laws only apply to the poor.

Its #DGSIF (don’t give shit it’s Fri) and #TGIF for others!!
#Today is going to be one of our hotter days 95F 35C here in the woodlands of MO. Not complaining at least it’s not a prolonged 3 digit temp as many of you are suffering 🥵
It’s a long workout day, acupuncturist halted a few of my exercises but added side planks🤬
I plan on baking a cake today to heat the house up more🥴. I’ve got a tasting for white chicken enchiladas, so that’s on the menu.
The weekend is near, hope you enjoy it🤗

Maggie and Mike Back Together Again, This Time on, or with, January 6 Corrupt Purpose

Sigh. Caught covid. Locking down now. I don't really have it in me to make anything today so I'm taking off. Hopefully I'll feel better by next week. Fingers crossed this is over soon.

Been an odd day so far. The plumber fixed the leak but had to saw a hole in the ceiling to get at it. Then my friend Carol called, she and I spent a lot of time together when he both lived in London but then she moved back to the USA. She’s now living in Edinburgh. We had a lot to catch up on, so we talked for about an hour. Then I was doing some work for my side hustle when I got a message on the neighbourhood WhatsApp group saying that a tree had fallen and was blocking off our road! 1/2

“When you need encouragement, think of the qualities the people around you have: this one's energy, that one's modesty, another's generosity, and so on. Nothing is as encouraging as when virtues are visibly embodied in the people around us, when we're practically showered with them. It's good to keep this in mind.”

I love Mastodon but too many of y'all don't know how to have fun, somebody throw a fucking pie or something.

The sudden rise of generative AI combined with the slow death of traditional television and print is leading to a historic number of strikes and job losses that will impact most of the media, news and entertainment that Americans rely on daily.

It's frustrating that I can wear the most genderless outfit ever, and because of my body shape people interpret me as femme or not looking non binary. I'm wearing a hoodie, baggy jeans and sneakers. Non binary people aren't all fashionable, thin and androgynous. We don't all have awesome style. I just want to wear comfy clothes and get the hell out of the shopping centre.

Found a nice comfy/sunny spot for a quick break on today's winter gardening work but one of the friendly locals had similar ideas and got there just before me ;) Diamond Python - Morelia spilota spilota - near Corunna, NSW.
