I’ve read heartbreaking books about 9/11 but the piece of writing my brain recalls every year is the bizarre first-person account of the Toronto Star writer who happened to be in New York when the towers came down. Unfortunately for the Star, that person was their fashion editor.

I bring this story up because it is amusing. Elon speaks with phrases and talking points used by Russian officials. He tells a respected journalist that he spoke with Putin. And then after the story is out, Elon and the Kremlin both deny it happened. Someone’s lying… 🤔

The Kremlin says @elonmusk did not speak to Vladimir Putin before posting about his idea for a Ukraine peace plan – one that hews quite closely to Russia's terms.

The "Krushchev's mistake" wording was a clear 'tell' that Musk was using material produced by someone linked to the Russian state. A 2nd was water supply to Crimea (why that detail?) A 3rd tell was his use of the Kosovo analogy. Typical Kremlin talk - atypical for anyone else.

@EHunterChristie He used the following sentence: „- Crimea formally part of Russia, as it has been since 1783 (until Khrushchev’s mistake).“ NOBODY except a Russian official use this language and comparison because both events are Cherry picked and not following wach other (Crimea was 🇺🇦 1917)

Exploit writing in the future will be like: exploit, aarch64, 128 bytes, no nulls, large breasts, trending on exploit-db, encode as emojis, reverse shell, format string leak, stageless, userfaultfd handler, massive breasts, use io_uring_spawn

So apparently, in Japan, there’s been this trend among indie Vtubers where they’ll stream Splatoon 3, but they use OBS to chroma key the enemy colors and replace it with a porn video. The challenge was to paint over the enemy’s color so they don’t get banned for showing porn 😭 https://t.co/j49ZUPRCg4

I texted my husband about all the sex I’m expecting for my birthday and accidentally sent it to my MIL. She just responded that she’s already made other plans that day.
