It would also help speed up adoption of better privacy technology solutions that EXIST but lack incentives for development and uptake. E.g., age verification is so much more invasive and complicated than flashing a license - but we could build a hack-proof solution for this with FHE!

Screenshot of the Platformer newsletter, with the following text highlighted: "For women in the workplace, few forms of masculine energy are more familiar than a top executive blaming a woman for the fallout of programs and policies that he agreed to and oversaw."

I'm convinced that Drake also has no real lawyers.

I think The Information has the right read on this: it's an incentive for employees stop complaining about the changes or be replaced by more right-thinking new hires.

Favorite burn, from Baldoni's OWN LAWYER: "Thereโs no question it relates to Justin. I mean, anybody that watched that hair bun..."

Justin Baldoni Apparently Didnโt Marvel at Ryan Reynoldsโs Nicepool
His lawyer reportedly asked Marvel and Disney to preserve any documents that reflect an attempt to โmockโ or โbullyโ Baldoni through the character.
Justin Baldoni suing Ryan Renolds for character assassination because of "NicePool" is the most hilarious self-own since Jagger insisting on singing backup for "You're So Vain" because he thought the song was about him.

Kings of the Wyld and Bloody Rose by Nicolas Eames might be what you're look for: "we're getting the band back together" but the band is a party of adventurers out for one last tour.

Love this team so much: the percentage of this montage that is dogs, toasts, and snacks is such a correct reflection of our company culture.

Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin fits the bill for me - but only if you're also fine with having your heart broken a few times.

I had trickster cleric NPC who pulled like 2 really good fast ones, and ever after every time she did or said anything, the players were like "WAIT A SECOND" and thus came up with all the rest of her hijinks for me.

Help me, lawyers of BlueSky: wouldn't RedNote and Lemon8 be subject to the exact same law that's shutting down TikTok?

Let me tell you, I've had to write that email, and it's HUMILIATING. The gratitude it real, and so is the never-ending stream of client kvetching until Game Series is properly referred to as "Company's 'IP' Presents: Game Series I - Dawn of the SEO-Optimized Team Name"

Vulture also reported that Sandman S2 is still in production, and and Anansi Boys series is still slated to come out on Prime. I'll honestly be really pleasantly surprised if both aren't released as planned: big tech is in mask-off mode.

Not me accidentally using the word "loverly" in a professional email: Don't let impressionable young people watch musicals, it ruins us permanently.

In all seriousness, it does make us better at communication and more aware of each other's strengths! And yes, when my spouse beat me at spades over Thanksgiving, I did throw several umberhulks his way as DM.

Playing D&D as a family has really brought us closer--so it's going to have maximum storytelling and emotional impact on my 9 and 11 yo when they discover that their cleric/mom has been plotting to betray them to an evil cult for months. #TTRPG #DND5e

She's got to be having the best day. X is the big winner in the Meta news: Brands looking for a big audience (sorry, bsky, love you mean it) will now ask "What's the point of leaving X?" instead of "What's the point of staying in this far-right swamp?" It's all swamps now, baby!!!

While I'm snowbound, my colleagues are living it up at #CES. In fact, given that @kimberlylancaster.bsky.social has had TSA Pre-Check yanked out from under her by an untimely expiration, we may just have to open up a new Caster branch out there.
