I just followed Fox News. You should too. It's very refreshing. @FoxNews
Do you know who Cheryl Johnson is? You should. Ms. Johnson is the Clerk of the Speaker of the House of Representatives. In lieu of an elected Speaker of the House, she is in charge. This is the first time a black woman has been the presiding officer of the U.S. House of Representatives. Let's hope it takes two years for the Republicans to pick their 'speaker'.
4 January 1931 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Sara Pierotto, was born in Amsterdam.
In December 1942 she was deported to Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after selection.

I mean imagine if we had tried to discourage smoking by... making chewing gum cheaper. Because that's exactly what we're trying to do here.
If you’re outraged about Adobe sending your pictures off their servers (you should be), please know other vendors do this too. That horse has already bolted.
Eg Microsoft Edge automatically sends your key presses in Edge to MS - enabled by default https://winbuzzer.com/2022/09/19/microsoft-editor-in-edge-sending-personla-info-to-microsoft-could-be-putting-users-at-risk-xcxwbn/
Microsoft Office 365 sends every photo and screenshot you add in Word, PowerPoint etc (including in emails) to Microsoft 365 Intelligent Services without prompt https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/everything-you-need-to-know-to-write-effective-alt-text-df98f884-ca3d-456c-807b-1a1fa82f5dc2
Hey #BlackMastodon Reposting this here because I deleted all my old tweets, so my various crypto warnings are all gone:
Get out of Tether. Now. As with NFTs, DAOs, and all of the other Black wealth decimation crypto fails I tried to warn you about, I am not debating this with y'all. Get out of Tether, or don't.
Don't let Alt-Right tech bros sell you crypto pipe dreams about a "separate but equal" financial system with no consumer protections. Not in 2023. These people do not care about you.
