Please share and give if you can! Thank you! 💖

Beloved hacking veteran Kelly ‘Aloria’ Lum passes away at 41 | TechCrunch Kelly "Aloria" Lum was 41 when she passed away in New York City. She was a beloved member of the cybersecurity community, particularly in the city.

For some reason I thought about Aloria today.

Having been on a Space Opera / MilSciFi binge for more than a few years now, this short was a breath of fresh air. An awesome read and took me back to my youth reading everything I could of Clarke and Asimov.

Democrats need to call Republicans what they are: un-American. Every Republican going along with Trump’s destruction wears that label, and it’s time to make them own it. Watch LP’s Stuart Stevens on MSNBC:

The end of the last tube I had stashed away years ago. L'annine went dark probably 5+ years ago and I have yet to find a replacement. Smooth and silky, not greasy or tacky like most. Those of us who are frequent hand washers know that this time of year results in cracked and bleeding skin.
