Good news. https://counter.social is again linkable from the bird site and is NO LONGER being falsely flagged as 'unsafe'.

I was watching the Jan 6th hearing.
It is incredible that one who has perpetrated such grievous misuses of authority, such abuses of the public trust, who has become such an existential threat to this nation, is not only allowed to go free, but to possibly be allowed to be in a position to where he very well may do so again.
Seriously, their eroding of constitutional norms and taking advantage of a broken system has left us teetering on the edge of an authoritarian abyss...

Cyber discipline can be summarized as follows:

Having strong passwords that are unique for every online site you have subscriptions for

Keep a watchful, ever-skeptical eye out for social engineering tactics

Install strong anti-malware software on your devices

Avoid using public Wi-Fi connections unless you have a VPN
Never use your business email address to register for personal and social media accounts

Be very stingy with all of your PII(Personally identifiable information)

Saw this out shopping yesterday and figured I’d share.

The police chief will be paid by donation!
That's right you too can pay the salary of people in your town responsible for enforcing crime and approving your CPL ! In some places this is called "corruption" .

As I continue to recover from Covid, I find that in addition to being perpetually exhausted, I'm also pissed off.

I tried so hard not to get this crap. It shouldn't have been this difficult. I am furious, collectively and individually, with the vaccine-denying mask-rejecting science-ignoring mouth-breathing assholes whose actions extended this pandemic.

Three fucking YEARS I hid away and dodged this virus. I'm angry. And I'm too goddamn tired to be this angry.

beware the wrath of xmas.

Indulge me for a moment. My nephew just received his Masters in Aerospace Engineering with a Certificate in Astrodynamics and Satellite Navigation while working f/t at NRL. And he published his second article as 2nd author!!!

FORT WORTH: The jury is being read instructions for sentencing deliberations by the judge. Defense earlier, raised concerns about the activist who had been arrested being in the court last week and the judge verified that he removed Mr. Mata due to that concern.

Is this him admitting to judicial bias?

It’s not the holidays till Aunt Bee throws down.

Saw this earlier near home: Fucking hell, Santa already looks spent! He’s not even started the gift giving.

Newly elected GOP congressman George Santos appears to have invented his backstory

Both Citigroup and Goldman Sachs told the newspaper they had no record of Santos working there, as he had claimed, and Baruch College found no record that he had graduated in 2010, also as he claimed.

The Internal Revenue Service also found little evidence that his animal rescue group, Friend of Pets United, was a tax-exempt organization.
