I'm telling you that's how certain Catholics took it, i.e. as permission to not make abortion the single issue in the 2024 election. Source: I come from a family of devout Catholics and am reporting a first-hand conversation.

Yes, meanwhile the US Bishops were saying abortion is priority #1 and must be outlawed.

You're reading that backwards. He's saying in this document that it was literally the US Bishops trying to demand the faithful to vote against abortion. He gave cover for people to vote for her when he said "neither of these candidates is 'pro-life'".

Fair point but the left is the only party with any voices asking to go back to pre-Reagan tax policies for the rich. The right’s just more honest about who they serve.

Thanks. FWIW, I think the OP meme was referencing the number of billionaires in the cabinet. Good to know the oligarchy has been in place well before the election.

Then reach out to journalists directly if you're going to take this stance, because when an authoritarian government decides which journalists are acceptable, it's not going to be a fun time. She is literally trying to avoid the situation you're describing.

The ecosystem around my team is not active over here. Even the few accounts that migrated are still more active over there. 😭

So likely exploited a vuln in an unknown web app on a server for initial access? Curious the likelihood of whether the web app was common or not.

Being an old guy involved with fight sports (muay thai & boxing) for over 20 years, I can't shake the feeling that this weekend won't go well for Tyson. His last 2 fights were not stellar. I hope I'm wrong. But the game has told me to pick with my head and not my heart.

I think the more pain-points you could identify with the existing write up, the easier it would be to target the writeup to the appropriate audience (though I don't want to speak for Spongefile). ie. What parts are hard to understand? What terminology is confusing and needs to be explained? etc

Cybersecurity / Infosec is the list I mainly follow for infosec news, but it may really be up to the type of information you're looking for. There are a number of folks who came over and post, but not sure who's your cup of tea.

Serenity I don't murder children speech
YouTube video by Mo Zi
Serenity (and Firefly) had so many good scenes. I feel like this one didn't get enough attention. Sobering.

Really impressed with Powell, the fed chief saying he’ll stay on in spite of people calling for him to step down. I’m still a bit nervous about people who say market crashes are a good thing. Guess I’ve watched too many “buy gold now” commercials.

This is Texas. He said he's getting it from farmer's market, so it might be a similar situation to Oregon. Another old friend in a different part of the state had a family-owned dairy farm and recommended against it. Relayed the message but this guy doesn't care.

He said he’s been doing it a while, but like 12oz a day. I’ll check up on them.
