Today’s Dog of War is this pup I spotted in Kyiv.

He’s a little wary – I imagine he’s been going through it!

Stay safe out there.

Best,

Tim

Mastodon community! I love this community but I feel like I've been less intentional about connecting with new and active voices here.

Can you help me and each other out by (1) introducing yourself if you're here and active, and (2) tag others who are also active on this platform?

I'm eager to follow more of you. Thanks for doing this!

#NewPodcast "Women supervisors at Auschwitz"

Over two hundred women served the SS in KL Auschwitz. Most of them were the so-called Aufseherinnen whose main task was to watch over women prisoners.

Dr. Sylwia Wysińska from the Archives of the Museum talks about the women supervivors at #Auschwitz

I dunno, I come on Fedi and there's so much serious stuff being posted, I feel bad just being happy or goofy about anything. Don't mind me if I stay quiet for a bit!

@TonyStark a weakling. A powerful conservative. Then a powerful MAGA fascist enabler. Then a scared one. Now a neutered weakling.
Spineless religious hate twit gets comeuppance.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Today's issue is about how I failed to become a U.S. Army Green Beret.

It's a pretty personal reflection, so we've made the essay for paid members only.

Consider upgrading if you haven't!

Going to be splitting my starter for a coworker whose daughter tried my bread and declared that my starter had way better flavor than theirs. 🤣 Always happy to keep the love of sourdough alive. #sourdough #SourdoughStarter

for some crazy reason, Casey Kasem, radio DJ and the former voice of Shaggy from Scooby Doo, is buried in a cemetery in Oslo, Norway.

there's a big family drama behind it. his wife got him buried there against the wishes of the rest of the family because she apparently likes Norway and had plans of moving there.

the family wants the remains moved to the United States but Norwegian law won't allow it. graves are protected for 20 years unless there's a murder trial.

Hello #Mastodon! I am making the jump from X to here. Too many of my #science and #medicine buddies left X. If you switched from X, how do you like it here?

Former CIA Bin Laden station chief Michael Scheuer hunted Bin Laden for the CIA. Now he’s a QANON conspiracy extremist who wants Democrats dead. The terrifying detail is that his wife still works for the CIA - and has access to classified intel.

Almost got scammed selling some stuff online. 🤙

Had a person send me their number as an interested buyer and told me to text them. I did (first mistake), and we arranged a meetup time. Then they asked if, for their safety, they could send me a six digit code (some of you already know where this is going) that I could repeat back to them to verify myself.

I said, "absolutely!" And sure enough, I got a Google Voice verification number. lol

If you're not familiar with the scam, shady people will take your phone number and try to create a Google Voice account with it. If you provide them with the 6-digit code that Google sends you, they can "verify" that they are you, and then basically use your phone number to run scams, commit fraud, etc. It's nasty business.

I called them out, blocked them, then reported them to the marketplace website and to the FTC--though, almost certainly, they were using the phone number of another poor soul to carry this out.

I used to work as a social engineer, running phishing campaigns (ethically, with consent lol), against Fortune 1000 companies to assess their level of vulnerability. Luckily for me, I was super familiar with this, but most of the people I told about it have said, "Oh, I probably would have fallen for that...."

So that is why I'm posting this. Please be aware of sketchy shit like this. If someone is asking you for a verification code over SMS or email, tread with EXTREME caution.

Stay safe out there, kids.
