I’m supremely annoyed that nearly all services now pin identity and authentication on an E-mail or Cell phone.

This does NOT stop illegitimate users. New E-mail and burner phones are easy to get.

It DOES however make legit users more vulnerable. Taking over someone’s Email account or phone number, even for a short period, may give an attacker easy access to take over your identity and accounts, sometimes in irreversible ways.

Authentication should be a Username, Password and TOTP. If you want to offer less secure/’passwordless/convenience’ options like email, phone, whatever, go right ahead. I can choose to NOT use those.

Don't mind me! Just hanging out overhead, waiting for someone cute to pounce!

Just walk right under here. I'm sure nothing will happen. >:3

trans friends, remember:

you're trans if you need HRT, and trans if you don't
you're trans if you need surgeries, and trans if you don't
you're trans if you socially transition, and trans if you don't
you're trans if you medically transition, and trans if you don't

YOU'RE TRANS IF YOU SAY YOU ARE

Have a great rest of your summer!

Say hello to Shallow the dutch angel dragon! 🖤 This is a fullsuit, but we were only able to model the partial. He's got an extra long tail with unique applique detailing, bright pink pops of color, tail spikes, and little minky wings. ✨

Latest reminder that if you buy something that the maker calls "smart" you are setting yourself up for being ripped off.

I go out of my way to avoid "smart" stuff -- but it's increasingly difficult to find.

Someone will make a lot of money when they open a store that sells things that purchasers fully own.

As a lifelong teacher, homework should be abolished.

At every grade level.

No research we have supports homework as being effective, and most of it (like teaching grammar) *ACTIVELY HARMS STUDENTS*.

(Except maybe some very mild homework in math and a couple of highly specific sciences).

Feeling a bit introspective on a few different things lately... #FursuitFriday

“N95 Masks Nearly Perfect at Blocking COVID, UMD Study Shows … So-called ‘duckbill’ N95 masks scored highest in the study... The researchers also found that—in what might come as a surprise to many—cloth masks outperformed the specific brand of KN95 mask that was tested. Surgical masks brought up the rear in performance out of the four types, but even they blocked 70% of the virus, the tests showed. (To reflect the general public's use of masks, study volunteers were not fit-tested for their masks or trained how to properly wear them.)“

The dehumanization of the homeless has brought us to a point where existing without a home is now a criminalizable offense. That means poverty is being criminalized, public space is increasingly inaccessible, and existence is becoming harder for all of us. We have to resist, both in action and in shifting the paradigm away from the dehumanization of our fellow human beings who struggle in this capitalist world.

I just saw another video of Gavin Newsom personally stealing the possessions of homeless people and throwing them out.
