the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

Headline from Guardian contributor Caitlin Cassidy: I'm a tech-savvy zillennial who knows how to safeguard against hacking. Scammers still managed to get me

I had been on a summer vacation, rarely checking my phone, when the text message arrived. It purported to be from my bank and said my "awards points" were going to expire the following day. "We're reminding you that 12,805 awards points ... are set to expire on 31 December 2025," the message read. "Don't miss out - redeem your points today." This was followed by a link that, looking at it now, was clearly not from my bank. The message also came from a generic mobile number, rather than the bank itself. But I was on holiday, I wasn't reading it in detail, so I clicked on the link.

Even though I wasn't aware my bank had a points system which expired each year, it wasn't shocking to me. My phone service accumulates points that can be used towards items. With little consideration, I clicked on a watch and proceeded to the checkout. This was where they got me. I was then prompted to log into my account using my banking credentials, and to authorise a $2.99 transaction for shipping in my app.

I’m going to be real with you Caitlin - it doesn’t sound like you’re actually a tech-savvy zillennial

Not good but their penetration in terms of political geography will just see them cannabalise the centre right coalition, who are an absolute shambles at the moment.

Firearms belong to liberals now.

This shit rocks

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

Doubtful

It's annoying that we already had so many existing problems to solve before these assholes created a bunch of new ones for no reason

Wonder what cool drugs they're giving him.

If you hear any insult directed at [fill in the blank] moms, the mom part is supposed to be the bad half

the world you grew up in no longer exists

Some tech execs committing suicide over a lack of uptake would actually be wonderful!

Is Cosmo magazine where the clicks are these days?

Tell your pals: NEVER subscribe to The Guardian.

we'll ban bridges before we ban guns, lmao. Idiocracy shit.

Elon Musk should never see the sky again.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott? Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.

I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment.

My Mazda gets grumpy in the heat too but then after driving a bit it seems to be OK.

Who cares? The fashion industry does not matter!!

As I watched January 6 unfold I recall thinking the far right had finally pushed its luck too far and Americans would not soon forget the sight of their capital burning because a bunch of sore losers and psychopaths couldn’t accept the will of the voters, and boy was I wrong. Not even fucking close.

It's sad they have to resort to begging, crying, pleading in a newspaper read by the over 60s primarily who rarely visit gyms.

One of my beliefs is that during a holiday week email shouldn't work at all for anyone

in your 20s, you'll come across someone who's wrong online. it's very important than you spend the next 40 years of your life learning and arguing about this topic online long after they've moved on, built a career, and raised a family.
