the company's total revenue in 2025 was $23 million. it was spending $18.5 million per month before legal fees (and it has been sued in a suicide case + is facing tons of regulatory scrutiny). it could barely cover one month of expenses with its revenue for the entire year

The scammers are double-teaming victims right now. One will be on the phone with the customer and the other will call the bank. So if your bank calls, *call them back*. Given data breaches, it's not impossible fraudsters can stick a tester transaction on your card so they can claim legitimacy.

Fucking JACKPOT. I knew pho from a pizza place had to be a passion project!! 🙌
Thank you for choosing Phở from Spooky Pizzeria. This is a project that mom and dad had been "cooking up" in the back for quite some time. And as fas as I can remember, I had taken some legendary naps in my dad's Phở House in Vietnam, so that's a trip down memory lane there :-))
Although we're Southern Vietnamese, my dad's Phở has always been influenced by the Nothern style, which has a lighter broth and very straight forward toppings. I took the liberty to swap out Boiled Brisket with Confit Brisket to further soften this tough cut.
We understand that take out food can get cold under this weather, so I thought that l'd make this guide so you can have the best experience:
. In this bag, there should be 2 deli containers.
. One container is for the Phở broth.
. The other container is for the rest of the ingredients.
. To get the broth piping hot, microwave the big container for 1-2 minutes.
. Pour the hot broth into the rest of the ingredients, mix well.
. You're all set. Enjoy!

Now that genAI stuff is starting to get into the linux kernel and distros, it's starting to go from slightly inconvenient to massively inconvenient. As such, I'm going to do my bit but convincing others will be a struggle. I hate that i have to use LibreWolf to be free of AI tooling in-browser.

so i guess all the way down here in post 15 my point is maybe: if you’re trans you should come out. yes, even now. you should give transition a try for the sake of your self. and if you already came out, despite ways it’s made life harder (not your fault!) ask yourself: what else am i capable of?

seriously: if someone comes out to you, your response matters if you want to be any better than a corn husk with cigarette ash for a heart. and if you come out to someone who’s shitty, that means nothing about you. you owe that person nothing. you are what you are. move forward. keep going.

You can come out a little bit at a time, too. Wear a top that you wouldn't normally, maybe just around the house or to the dairy. Have one (1) chat with a trustworthy person. But start.

it’s national coming out day and yours will be a lot happier if you do. yes, even now. there’s no air in the closet. and if a trans person comes out to you, and you’re cis, “thank you for trusting me. what can i do to support you?” works just fine.

To everyone in the trans+ community: your existence is not something to be debated. These words come from cis women who simply want you to know that your lives matter, and that you deserve joy, safety, dignity and belonging. Love is a doing word. All our love, NION women 💜
I am so sorry that life is so tough right now.
Sadly it seems that the world has become filled with hate and division. People who have never had the wonderful opportunity to meet you or any of your trans siblings are only hearing from the noisy, hateful ones.
I want you to hear from some of the other people on this planet who don't use social media to shout and spread hate.
#WithTheTDear beautiful you...please know that in this crazy world there are folk who cheer you, love you and embrace you.
Hold tight to who you are, and know that you are beautiful, are worthy, and are seen and heard. May the winds of time bring quietitide to your world and fan the wings of peace so that you can keep being you... beautiful! Xx
#WithTheTThank you for enriching our world and teaching us that there are many ways to be fully human. I'm sorry you have to endure the misunderstanding & mistreatment of those who can only imagine life in narrow lines of conformity. I remember, not so long ago, those of us who knew we were lesbians were afraid to say it, watching in silence and fear as we were punished for our difference.
I promise you, these times will pass. The LGB community survived - we are here and proud.
For the T community suffering right now - you already belong with us, and I know that broader acceptance will follow. Until then, please know that you have our love, acceptance and support.
- MD
#WithTheTI want you to know that I support you unequivocally and you must believe me when I say that there are many many people that share this view. Put simply - YOU matter, YOU are loved and YOU are supported.
Please, if you can, turn down the volume on those negative voices and amplify those who want you to hear messages of love and support. YOU are enough. YOU are valid.
YOU matter!
Best wishes,
Jacqui

Part of the reason for the organised vilification of the Ardern govt initial response to the COVID pandemic was that it was so effective in demonstrating how powerful decisive state intervention in the interests of the common good could be. The far-right and its big business backers were HORRIFIED.
