My mom got phished in an EXTREMELY refined scam that pretty much anyone could fall for– basically her account was already pre-hacked and they spoofed the bank’s number exactly, called her pretending there was fraud, and read back legitimate and fake transactions and personal info so she wouldn’t suspect they weren’t the bank. Then discouraged her from logging in claiming the account was locked so they could investigate the fraud– all so she wouldnt catch them making massive purchases using her stolen info.

We have the same boss and when she told him what happened he recommended she call the bank directly, so she did and they managed to catch it in time before $20k of transactions went through. Very scary

I guess the lesson here is never ever answer your phone, I love that fraud is so rampant an entire form of mass communication is now useless

ANYONE can fall for phishing scams- my mom is extremely smart and we discuss common scams that target her age demographic and she still fell for this. If it happened to me I may have fallen for it too. Always be careful!

that’s EXACTLY what happened to me last spring. it’s dire out there….

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

If you EVER get ANY call from ANYONE claiming to be a bank or other important group asking you for anything, tell them you will call them back and call them yourself. Do not call a number they give you, look it up yourself.

Banks don’t call people, IME. They send emails and texts and put notices on your online account. Credit cards sometimes do I believe, but in that case, just call the number on your card back.

Never take a call from anyone and assume they are who they say. Period. These people are skilled at social manipulation. They will always tell you there is a crisis.

And don’t just google the number, use your bank’s official site! A lot of search engines are now providing phone numbers of scams instead of legit ones. Also make sure the url of the site matches the one available on cards and other papers you’ve been given by your bank because fake sites can look VERY convincing.

Devastating to have more evidence that done IS better than perfect

Additionally, findings indicate that the act of doing shows you that you were not seeking perfection, you were fearing inadequacy

@grey-and-lavender

#oh that last line gutted me #is there a place between perfect and failure?

Good news! There is!

Bad news! It is called ‘done’

✨ fuck ✨

A day late, but

He was as tall as he was tall, and his eyes were the color they were. To describe his hair one would say that he had some. His face had all the features you’d expect, and none of the ones you wouldn’t. “There he is,” people would often say of him, but only when he was there. And they were right.

I was a student at UC Berkeley during the 2000 presidential election. The propaganda at that time was that Al Gore and George W. Bush were exactly the same candidate wearing different ties. There was no difference between them, so you should vote for Ralph Nader.

In 2016 the propaganda was Bernie Bros—and going both ways (“Hillary is an establishment candidate! You’re not a real liberal if you don’t vote for Bernie!” and also “Bernie will never win! If you EVER supported Bernie you’re not a real liberal!”).

This time the propaganda was Gaza. “How can you vote for a candidate that is a part of an administration responsible for GENOCIDE?!”

The thing with propaganda is it’s always true—kind of. You can go right down the list and see the truth in all of these things:

• Both Al Gore and George W. Bush were establishment candidates. Al Gore was the sitting vice president and a career politician and George W. Bush was the son of former president and vice president George Bush, who himself was vice president to Ronald Reagan.
• HIllary Clinton was an establishment politican, the wife of a former president, and the sitting secretary of state. Bernie Sanders didn’t have the party support to become the Democratic Party candidate on account of his history of independence.
• Biden and Harris were in office during the Hamas attack on October 7th, 2023, and the US government has offered continued support to Israel in its couteroffensive.

Those things are true. But the true things were being used to distract the distractible from other arguably more important true things, e.g. that Al Gore’s actual policies were more liberal than George W. Bush’s; Hillary Clinton’s policies were more liberal than Donald Trump’s; and a Kamala Harris-led government was going to be better for Palestine than a Donald Trump-led government.

The goal with the propaganda each time was exaclty the same. It wasn’t to get votes for a third party candidate or change policy or help Gaza.

The goal was to get liberals not to vote.

And it worked. Every time.

It’ll work again, too, if we don’t teach voters how to recognize this. It’s pretty obvious though. If it’s near an election and it’s a wedge issue between liberal voters and ultra-liberal voters, that’s the propaganda.

And it is 100% active and alive here on Tumblr.

if you’re feeling powerless right now—and god knows I am—here’s a reminder you can donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds, the Trans Law Center, Gaza Soup Kitchen, the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, and hundreds of other charities that will work to mitigate the damage that has been and will continue to be inflicted

life continues. we still have the capacity to do good, important work. that matters

I don’t know where it came from, but several years ago this idea popped into my head unbidden, and for some reason it tickles me. I don’t know if it’s funny, but I like it and I made it into a zine, I hope you enjoy it.

It lays out really nicely as 3-up spreads on A4 paper, so you can print, staple and fold it, then cut it into 3 zines. It made it really easy to print up 20 of them to trade at this art social thing I went to
