Moving into my long term housing next week. The property management company just asked for an a deposit because I am “a potential liability.” They want $500. I can’t move in unless I pay it. This is some bullshit. But it’s the only housing that works for me at this time.

It's good that the recall was sent out this early. They were distributed from Sept-Feb and we're in March. There's a good chance of getting them off the shelves. Also with the lax oversight right now, I'm glad this company is sounding the alarm. I say this bc I know someone who does this work

I literally have no hot water in my house. I’m temporarily unable to properly wash dishes and take a proper bath/shower.

I’m determined to get a new water heater this week. There’s water on my basement floor and there’s also a leak that’s started.

I know a lot of them were ousted but idk how many are internally rebelling or have the numbers to do so. Maybe there will be conscientious objectors

In case anyone is still unclear, “zio” isn’t short for “Zionist”, it’s a *KKK-originated slur* for Jews. Not Zionists, JEWS. Using it announces you as an ideological white supremacist and white supremacists recognize you as such.

If you're hesitating to do any kind of good because it takes effort, or might chip away at potential wealth, I just want you to sit and think about that for a few minutes.

Is that the sort of person you want to be?
Or do you want to build community & help keep folks alive & well despite fascism?

I've been pointing out that the term Zios is a David Duke creates term for years to the people who have casually used it and not one person has said "Oh shit? Really? My bad." They all just ignore what i said or double down on why the use is ok.

Gone (Almost) Phishin’ This is a little embarrassing to share, but I’d rather someone else be able to spot a dangerous scam before they fall for it. So, here goes. One evening last month, my Apple Watch, iPhone, an…

This is a diabolical phishing attack. “That generated a real case ID, and triggered real Apple emails to my inbox, properly signed, from Apple’s actual servers.” [ma.tt]

#IndustryHBO is my favorite show on television. The intellectual thriller I need. Eric Tao's downfall was coming and last week's episode made me so uneasy. I wasn't shocked about today. But it still hit so hard!!! That's writing! That's cinema! When you can see it coming and still feel it

They wanna be Obama so badddddd. It's honestly embarrassing. They're not even interesting enough to be a villain like Eric Adams. Middling henchmen vying for succession

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

This cartoon has four panels, each showing a different scene. In addition, there’s a small “kicker” panel under the fourth panel.

PANEL 1

The panel shows a counter at a fast food restaurant. We can see a couple of customers, and a couple of workers. The workers are wearing hats that very vaguely resemble hamburger buns. A sign on the wall shows a smiling hamburger with eyes, below the caption “Soilent Green YUM.” A smaller sign says “SAFETY” in larger letters followed by tiny print, which says “is a word we use a lot so you can’t sue us.”

The worker at the cash register is turning to speak directly to the reader.

WORKER: To get an official photo I.D., I have to go to the nearest government office, which is 90 miles away, and I don’t have a car, and even if I did my boss won’t give me a weekday off.

PANEL 2

We’re in what looks like someone’s back yard. In the foreground is a garden, with some sort of plant being grown in tidy rows. An elderly woman is kneeling on the ground in front of the garden, wearing a floppy straw hat, an apron with a floral patter, and holding a trowel. She speaks directly to the reader.

WOMAN: I can’t get I.D. without a birth certificate. But when I was born home births didn’t get birth certificates.

PANEL 3

A mover wearing jeans and a black tank top is carrying a sofa as he’s talking to the reader. 
MOVER: The state charges $60 for a driver’s license…. but first I’d need a copy of my birth certificate, which is $30. I can’t afford 90 dollars to vote!

PANEL 4

This panel shows the interior of a coffee shop. A man and a woman sit together at a table. They're both looking at their devices, him annoyed, her dismissive.
MAN: Why wouldn’t anyone be able to get an I.D.? Idiots!
WOMAN: People like that don’t deserve to vote.

SMALL KICKER PANEL UNDER THE BOTTOM OF THE CARTOON
The man from panel 4 yelling at Barry
MAN: If it’s easy for me it must be easy for everybody! That’s just science!

A still from the show Abbott Elementary. A red haired white woman leans towards a Black woman with red lipstick. The Black woman is speaking with an exasperated expression. Text "I forget that black people can also be annoying."
