my one defence against scammers is that I’m stupid. this person called pretending to be my internet provider, and asked who I use for my phone, and I was like “I dunno.” and they were like, you don’t know? how do do you pay bills every month? and I was like “my phone still works so I guess it’s auto??” and then they tried to get me to open apps on my phone and I was like “I don’t have those apps. I dunno.” then after trying to convince me that I did have the apps for a couple minutes they hung up in a frustrated rage. course then I realized that I DID have the apps. and that the apps showed someone trying to log into my email and requesting confirmation. and then I was like ohhhhhh…….a scammer……woaw

Ace attorney is so funny for making a game where you play as a lawyer whose assistant lets him talk to dead people and the only dead person he talks to is a smarter, better lawyer

😳 <- this emoji but without the blush or romantic connotation. im not blushing im staring you directly in your fucking eyes

if you excuse the bad editing it would look like this

can we hit 150k before this piece of shits one year anniversary

u know before yellow emojis took over as automatic, the one we used for this exactly was O_O . which has unfortunately become the shortcut for the stupid blushy one. but we also used to emphasize the emotion by making the mouth bigger, O_________O . there was also o_O , for when you're weirded out, and o_o for small weirds or intrigue. you could use a period instead of an underscore for the mouth, o.o, O.O, which was a little more like shock.

there was also -_- for when you're annoyed. -_-* for pissed. the asterisk is a forehead vein. a very bad day or very bad joke could result in -___________-********** .

anyway that's your history lesson for the day, dont forget your roots.

let us also not forget the meekest of them all: ._.

^ _ ^

I really love the concept of Tim hiding in small spaces randomly, and his family just completely accepting this as normal behavior.

Like,

Dick, mid conversation with Wally, grabs a cookie from his plate and reaches behind the couch, sticking his arm down there and pulls it up with no cookie. He doesn't falter once in his conversation.

Wally blinks in confusion a few times and then carefully asks, "Did you just... put a cookie behind the couch?"

Dick blinks as well. "Tim is behind there." He said like that should be obvious.

"What?! Dude, has he been listening to our conversation??"

"Nah, he's got his headphones on." Dick says dismissively.

Tim reaches his hand up and taps Dick on the shoulder to get his attention and then mimes writing. Dick hands him a pen.

"This happens all the time, doesn't it?" Wally asked, amused.

Dick snorts and nods. "Are you really surprised? I mean, I hang upside down when i need to think, Damian cuts things, Jason shoots things, Bruce broods. Tim hides."

Wally laughs. "Fair enough, man."

Or,

Mid Justice League meeting, Bruce looks under the desk he's at, grunts and motions to the side of his head. Then, he grumbles "Notepad." A second passes, he straightens up and starts scribbling something onto a notepad.

"What the hell just happened?" Hal asks bluntly.

"Red Robin is under there." Clark says immediately, used to this whole thing.

"Okay... Is there, like, a reason for that?"

Bruce grunts, and Clark says, "He likes it under there."

"Ooookkaayyyy then."

Have you had any visitors lately? ❣️

just!! like!! dad!!!!!!

a proposition has been submitted to build a satellite which can detect trans women from orbit and fire lasers at them. opponents of the plan are saying that it could incorrectly identify them as well and they don't want to be wrongly fried

it was not on wheat...

hey! donate to uk trans charities today because it’s gonna be a rough one

Folks in the UK, could we have some trusted links to charities?

There's Mermaids which is always a great option, and then Scotland-specific there's LGBT Youth Scotland, to give you just a couple. There will absolutely be more that other people can suggest though!

switchboard.lgbt and akt.org.uk are two i regularly support, and there’s always stonewall !

trans aid cymru is a mutual aid group rather than a charity but ill always shout them out for wales specific trans community support! they have a donation page here

Scottish Trans Alliance do good work, and more locally to me and also locally to the evil billionaire funding so much of this (we are deeply uneasy neighbours I live in constant fear of seeing her) and also Parliament, Resisting Transphobia in Edinburgh do a lot of community work. Resistance is everywhere, both national and local, official and grassroots, and if you have no money spare to donate then you can donate time, if you have neither you can - you Must - reach out to even just one trans person near you, because community starts with smiling at your neighbours, knowing names, noticing if they're struggling. I survived thanks to one queer person I never knew the name of and spoke barely one sentence to taking 10 minutes out of their day to drop off an LGBTQ youth centre flier for me back in 2016. It starts small. It moves mountains. We are not budging an inch. I love you.

YOU hate JK Rowling!

Clean it up hiro….

Former infosec worker here, my 2 cents on this:

>4chan was running on an EXTREMELY OLD version of php so it was vulnerable as fuck

>hacker found vulnerability back on 2021 and played the long game so they could take down the entire site

>alongside admin info, entire source code leaked

>site used deprecated connections to MySQL server, insecure as shit

>site had a file with whitelisted countries that could post freely while others needed to wait for 900 SECONDS TO GET THE CAPTCHA.

>whole code base needs to be updated in order to get the server running up again, which could take a long long time, and could be deemed not worthy by Hiro, so this may actually be the end of 4chan

Remember kids, update and patch vulnerabilities if you don't want to get nuked out of the face of the earth by the hacker known as 4chan

Dichotomy time if you were depicted in a red/blue characters dynamic

No other colors you are getting SHOEHORNED into these boxes

Bruce Wayne — good and “bad” versions of— have all mastered that Dad voice where they’re not yelling. They’re Not Yelling at you. They’re talking softly, seriously, but it still somehow feels like they’re yelling. Every word hits you like a physical force, knocking your head back, but Bruce isn’t yelling. And yet, a part of you wishes he’d just yell. Just fucking lose it, because why is he so calm and you’re on the edge of losing it and you’re just talking?

This is where Bruce's real power is anyway because if he's yelling they can yell back but if he's just talking and he's calm and serious, it's a lot harder.

This is so fucking funny
