En mi descargo, creo que dijo “papá, tú sabes qué es lodo?”
Y estaba jugando pokopia. “Barro” tenía sentido en el contexto.

Mi hija acaba de hacerme caer con “¿Qué es un lodo?

Un pájado vedde”

Pfffffffffttt

The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman is demanding answers from CISA about an alarming data exposure incident wherein a contractor leaked oodles of internal CISA passwords -- including multiple AWS GovCloud credentials -- in a public GitHub profile for six months until notified by Yours Truly. The letter this week from Sen. Chuck Grassley (IA) is notable because he's the most senior lawmaker to inquire about this colossal screw up so far, and he's a Republican.

Seen recently on a blog: as clear an example as I've ever seen of fundamental attribution bias, with my response asking the OP to do better.
People struggling to get by are not "scumbags." Have some compassion.

It's popular to post despairing things about how we should all give up on an evidence-based future, with cures and science and medicine, in the face of how brutal this time is. I will not give up on science and my reason is simple: I married a scientist who chose to become a science teacher

For those of you who enjoy small acts of kindness:

A few days ago, I went to a photographer to get new ID photos after starting my transition.

His job was simply to take the official pictures and send me on my way.

After taking the passport photos, he looked at me and asked:

“Are these your first photos as a woman?”

I smiled and said, “Yes.”

He paused for a moment and said:

“That’s not acceptable. You’re not allowed to smile in passport photos. It can’t be right that you don’t smile in the first photos of your new life.”

Then he asked me to look back into the camera and smile.

He took a few more portraits, printed three large photos for me, handed them to me, and said:

“These are your first photos as a woman. Take them. Consider these a gift”

I nearly cried.

Sometimes people don’t realize how much a small gesture can mean to someone else. 💜🏳️‍⚧️

Ok but I wonder how Crime feels, having to do so many gays.

KPMG issued a report citing all the transformational ways GenAI has transformed industry, it’s been widely cited.

One minor problem: it turns they used AI to write the report, and it made up all of the evidence.

KPMG have now withdrawn the report in full.

The world is aflame, but at least I shaved and trimmed my beard.

Sometimes I go and behave kindly to people, just to feel something

My dentist hands out roses at the end of visits. I was surprised and delighted to see rainbow roses today, and it was nice to bring one home. 🌹🏳️‍🌈

I'm actually kind of getting a headache listening to this but also kind of enjoying it

I love awkward animals from medieval manuscripts, so I wanted to do a drawing inspired by them for a while. And a few days ago I saw a fun looking fox holding an astrolabe. I switched it for a pride flag, because why not. A pride flag is a great accessory for a fox! :blobfoxnomstrawberry:

Also, happy pride! :heart_sp_pride:

Some times I can get something more out of the conversation if I start asking more specifically, like "Ok, but what classes did you have today? Ah, and what did you like about [x class]?"

But I have to respect that maybe she's just done with that thing for a while.

Being a dad and wanting to know about my kid's day, I often try to ask her what she did in school, and as you may be guessing, she often replies "I don't know" or "nothing much". It's a bit frustrating, but you must understand that school is like our work, and we're asking them "how was work today" and they're replying just like we would. Work sucks.

And she loves her school. She'll tell me the games she played with her classmates, that stuff, but actual learning? bleh.

I spent years drawing, researching, and writing this project.
