HEADS UP!

There's a new CREDIT CARD SCAM floating around. I just got a text, supposedly from my credit card issuer, asking if I'd just attempted a $683 purchase at a Target SuperStore. There was no call back phone number in the text. I called my issuer directly and was informed that it's the fraud du jour. The rep I was speaking to had been fielding calls about it all day. Some for purchases from SAM'S, others from TARGET.

BEWARE!

TFW you notice one of your plants is biting itself... and screaming. Definitely a metaphor for 2024 so far.

This is astonishing. Congratulations, stalwarts of Voyager I -- this is frankly unexpected and entirely wonderful.

Just got onto a book-club meeting and watched the host kick off everyone using one of those AI-transcription tools -- a beautiful sight. (The group is Carbonauts, BTW -- highly recommended.) thecarbonauts.com/

That thunderclap moment when you realize the amazing similarities between the voices of Joanna Newsom and Iris DeMent. (It's followed by the profound wish for new music in 2024 from one or the other or both.)

Look - Trump is selling our nation's secrets. So far, the courts are letting him get away with it.

Please retweet this info - I had a TS/SCI clearance for 30 years and we just let our secrets out the WH front door.

NGL, the phrase "a strong Lunar economy" makes me want to burn down a fking bank. Calling this a leap for humanity sickens me. Techbros. It's a leap for techbros.

Not to vaguebook (do we have a generic term for that yet?), but: Some days staying in a closet is infinitely more work than the insanely hard work of coming out of it. The problem is when you're just... not into doing that work either way 🤪

So much freedom. So much democracy.

"Let's just cancel all that voting and crown our orange king now, before the brown woman makes him keep talking."

RNC considers cancelling the remaining 48 primaries (including SC) and declaring Trump the candidate.
