@munin Yes, but there is the added irony of social media using algorithms to blanket ban words and phrases, then the entire English-speaking internet creating new phrases to replace those words that computers don't catch, then those becoming the common words for those sometimes actually harmful things.

I've started seeing spoken language in Gen Z and Gen Alpha adapt to avoiding algorithmic social media censorship in videos and comments, and it is... really something. -

Like people are now saying "unalive", unironically, in complete sentences.

I can't believe voters in the US look at all the stuff people in Europe are protected from with GDPR and they're just like, "nah, we don't want that legislation that has zero negative impact on us, and protects us from our data and art being perpetuall...@ramsey Yes, but enough engaged voters can win out over the corporations. They did in the EU, and to some extent in California.

It's not even like EU employment protections, where insane Reaganomics BS insists companies will fall to socialism as a result.
Like, this could be us, but you are most definitely playing.

I absolutely love that the VERY FIRST #YouTube recommended video for me where I only watch like, cooking comedy videos, Starfield walkthroughs, Star Trek, and queer ASMR today was a repulsive incel cartoon bashing Harris.I absolutely love that the VERY FIRST #YouTube recommended video for me where I only watch like, cooking comedy videos, Starfield walkthroughs, Star Trek, and queer ASMR today was a repulsive incel cartoon bashing Harris.

For all y’all international people who think it would be super to have privatized American healthcare, I introduce you to the day you change jobs or your job chooses to change your Insurance agency - and you get a peppy email telling you how it’s time ...For all y’all international people who think it would be super to have privatized American healthcare, I introduce you to the day you change jobs or your job chooses to change your Insurance agency - and you get a peppy email telling you how it’s time to find all new doctors today and rebuild an entire care team immediately from scratch. Cheers!

Met someone really cool last night and talked for two hours, but after realizing I’d have to also explain I am asexual, just spent an hour troll baiting for Harris, and have a Star Wars living room I walked without exchanging info ️Met someone really cool last night and talked for two hours, but after realizing I’d have to also explain I am asexual, just spent an hour troll baiting for Harris, and have a Star Wars living room I walked without exchanging info ️

Do I know anyone from #chicago ?Any recommendations of things to see while we're there?@ve4grm @SooJin Boystown and Logan Square for queer culture, you’ll need to get out of the loop because it shuts down (ghost town, not even food) outside business hours. Sadly a lot of Goth and Punk clubs have shut down but Delilah’s, Underground Lounge, and Liars Club have nights. Hit the Alley for punk clothes. They’re a hoot.

Do I know anyone from #chicago ?Any recommendations of things to see while we're there?@SooJin @ve4grm yes, tons!!! How can I help? Want to email or signal? I’ll hook them up. Just because it depends on what you are into - sightseeing, nightlife, food…
I will drop some of my faves tho in case:
SKIP: Portillo’s, Willis tower, navy pier unless for a specific event, basically River North (tourist traps)
DO:: Architecture boat tour, Museum of Science and Indistry, Field Museum, Art Institute, Chinatown, Museum of Surgical Science, Second City, Lyric Opera, nightlife Logan Square or Lincoln Park, get around on water taxi
EAT / DRINK: Topolobambo, Valedor, Hala Kahiki, Red Lion, Gage, BLVD, Gibsons, Brasero, Dolo, Dasies, Russian Tea Time, anything in Chinatown or little India
STAY: Wicker Park, Logan Square, or anything old and independent on Michigan Ave
PIZZA: Lou’s or Pequod’s
DOGS: Gene & Jude’s but honestly any hole in the wall that’s not a chain.
Burbs are a few totally different matter and I can help there too.

I’m sorry, but for some reason there are exactly two types of humans in industrial cybersecurity.I’m sorry, but for some reason there are exactly two types of humans in industrial cybersecurity. 95% are mission driven and incredibly fun and kind. 5% are very angry and gatekeepy senior people who want to prevent anyone else from ever contributing to the field. #ICSCybersecurity

Kamala #Harris isn't the "least bad choice."@DoesntExist No human is perfect. No government is perfect. That's why we elect our officials and vote on policy. it's far from without fault. She's an awesome choice for the situation and willing to listen and make changes. We're not a cult, like some people.

If you’re outside the US and looking at our election in abject horror, one legit thing you can do is talk to any American friends in election swing states and make sure they checked they haven’t been purged from voter registration and intend to vote.If you’re outside the US and looking at our election in abject horror, one legit thing you can do is talk to any American friends in election swing states and make sure they checked they haven’t been purged from voter registration and intend to vote. It’s their votes that really count much more than say, mine. Republican donors have made a huge financial push to only register a certain angry, fascist demographic there. I know it sounds crazy, but that’s what we are dealing with. Remember that our popular vote means little. It’s specific locations where votes mean more. Georgia is a huge one. Pennsylvania.

I need a sanity check from the fediverse.I need a sanity check from the fediverse. After all, I'm a mere Illinois driver. I was just informed my dad and his friends have this deep pet peeve while driving that I have absolutely never been aware of or concerned by on safe roads in America.
Imagine you are driving on a multi-lane highway. Yes, I get the "right lane is the slow lane, left lane is the passing lane" thing. But imagine it's like pretty empty road, out in the country, and you're driving the speed you want to go in the right or middle lane.
Another car is along side you in the left lane. There's nobody behind them who wants to go faster. They just hang out at the same-ish speed as you. So you have a car kind of driving next to you.
This makes my dad deeply uncomfortable and he finds it incredibly rude. Fediverse, if the driver is doing nothing else objectionable, is it him, or me?

Gentle annual end of summer reminder - I do a lot of community careers and outreach work and speaking about cybersecurity, and am always happy to help your community con if I’m able!Gentle annual end of summer reminder - I do a lot of community careers and outreach work and speaking about cybersecurity, and am always happy to help your community con if I’m able!
I afford to do this through commercial speaking, especially during October Cybersecurity Awareness Month. I’m starting to get booked up, but if you would like to refer me for any in-person or virtual talks or clinics on cybersecurity, I have an agent, Leading Authorities Inc, and would be very grateful. They can arrange with your company to book me. There are lots of great examples of my talks about how adversaries and security controls work, as well as the state of cyberattacks, for a variety of audiences on YouTube!
