They told me there was an account breach. In a very Indian accent.

I asked if it was a breach or an incident.

He told me it was a breach.

I asked what of my data had been exfiltrated.

He said third parties had access to all of my […]

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Whatever you do, do NOT go to this link just to game the survey. And also do not Google the street address of a personal enemy and put it in the contact information. Just don't. :3

Better idea: Go to the link and take his survey. Bonus points for using the contact info of a personal enemy. :3

Bye bye, Windows 10! Microsoft is stopping support for the operating system today. If you're still using it, now is a good time to consider alternatives such as Linux, which is free and open source (like LibreOffice): blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/10... #endof10

Bari Weiss is building a right-wing CBS knockoff—mimicking the format, harvesting the credibility, but serving pure partisanship.

This is the Venture Capital fascism playbook: clone trusted institutions, staff them with right-wing ideological warriors, and call it ‘balance.’

Update: After Bari Weiss was made Editor-in-Chief, CBS News is now uplifting stories from Weiss’s The Free Press.

Israeli officials are openly defying Trump’s so-called Gaza “peace plan.” The defense minister says bombing will continue after hostages are returned and that Gaza’s tunnels will be destroyed “under U.S. supervision”. Call it what it is, it’s not peace, but a US backed siege.
