NCSC: UK Facing “Enduring and Significant” Cyber-Threat
The UK’s critical infrastructure (CNI) providers face a persistent and critical threat from emboldened state-backed and aligned actors, a leading UK cybersecurity agency has warned. The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), part of GCHQ, issued the warning in its Annual Review 2023. Over the past year it has repeatedly sounded the alarm over the activity of Russian threat actors, which it claims…

Life can be rough at times and we can often feel discouraged or depressed. That’s the time to reach out to Jesus. He will come alongside you, bring you the comfort and love and strength that you need to face the day. His presence will drive away your fears and give you a new perspective on your current situation. Your boldness will rise as you draw closer to him, which will help you to step out and do the good works He is calling you to do. #emboldened #rough #discouraged #depressed #comfort #love #strength #newperspective #goodworks #flowers https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce9jKhzr-yO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

can't believe i'm saying this, but please don't let literal nazi shit slide in the slenderverse fandom. i just saw habit and firebrand drawn together with literal swastikas on it and i'm not gonna name names, but if you see that shit, please report it. you can't let antisemitism slide for even an inch, because if you do, you're sending the signal that nazism and antisemitism is welcome in your circles, and that jewish people are not. it's not a joke, it's not cute or ironic, and it's certainly not appropriate for ship art with a jewish guy. use your brain.

do you know if demanding a ceasfire is within ICJ means? i'm not trying to like, idk, defend them or anything, i'm just genuinely curious if they could have actually demanded that, and failed to do so, or if that was never going to be an option
literally speaking? yes, of course it was possible for the ICJ to demand a ceasefire. The South African legal team put up a truly bulletproof case - they would not have asked for a ceasefire if it was not an actual option. Practically speaking? Calling for a ceasefire would've opened up the ICJ to a lot of flack from all the fanatics still moaning about Israel's "right to defend itself". By asking Israel to simply assure protections for Palestinian civilians (which nobody could contest without outwardly seeming like a psychopath), they're trying to walk a safer path.
In doing so however, they've assured that for the next month, Palestinians will most likely undergo the worst barrage of bombing and attacks yet, until Israel has to report back to the ICJ (if they decide to).

Thinking about how being a girl is just being constantly aware of all the ways you could be harassed. Oh, a car passing by. Hopefully it's not filled with men who want to shout something at me. Oh a group of teen boys walking by me while I'm by myself. I sure hope they leave me alone. Oh, look, a construction crew. Better not go that way. Oh I want to go to a bar? Better not leave my drink unattended. In fact, it's better not to take a drink from someone at all. Even the bartender. Oh, I want to go for a walk but it's starting to get dark? Probably a better idea to stay inside.
It's any wonder more of us don't go crazy.

Me, praying: if I’m being called by a deity, I’m so sorry but I have a long history of being oblivious/in denial. I’m inviting you to be as bold as you have to be to get my attention.
This bird showing up on my path to campus:
Tumblr media
Me: wow I’ve never seen that type of bird before, usually birds this big don’t show up in the city streets unless they’re those ducks at the park.
Also me: I know I just asked for signs, but this probably doesn’t mean anything, I’ll hold off blogging about it too. (I’d started drafting a post about it potentially being a sign, but ended up deleting it.)
I get to where I’m heading and-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Me: someone was probably feeding them. Its funny that they’re all gathered there though.
And then on the walk back

My friend has informed me that these are juvenile southern black backed gulls, also called kelp gulls. Apparently they’re considered pests, so ofc I adore them unconditionally.

Hot take but the aggressive hardline separation of asexual and aromantic is actually EXTREMELY harmful to a lot of ace/aro people.
Angry rant under the cut
It's one to thing to go: "okay yes sometimes they go together but it's important to remember that for some people they can be different things and you can be one and not the other"
And go: "These are TOTALLY DIFFERENT 100 always separate there is no intersection EVER and if you DARE to be both then you have to piecemeal your identity to not uwu invalidate others(we do not care that we are invalidating you though lol) Don't you DARE ever experience them together you are CONFLATING"
It's like yall just want asexual to = alloromantic only and aromantic to = allosexual only.
You don't give a shit about aroaces, aces who aren't alloromantic but don't ID as aromantic or aros who aren't allosexual but don't ID as asexual.
The aspec community despises us. We get talked down to demanded to split our identities apart for your comfort. We can't exist in certain spaces because our presence there is a personal affront to allo-aspecs. Shout out to the alloaros that bitch about those disgusting aroaces just clogging up the aromantic tag ☺. Shout out to the alloaces who can still love and aren't totally heartless monsters 🥺.
Don't talk about ace shit in the aro tags, Don't talk about aro shit in the ace tags...what's that you're both? And can't neatly separate them and it brings you comfort to be able to discuss your whole orientation? SHUT THE FVCK UP YOU CONFLATING IGNORANT SHIT HEAD.
If you want to be in the aromantic community you have to leave your ace-ness at the door same for asexual community and disregarding your aromantism.
A personal example was an Aspec discord server I was in that had two media recs channels one for sex repulsed people and the other for romance repulsed. Now the issue came is that they didn't acknowledge someone could be both i.e both sex & romance repulsed/just looking for media that had neither sexual nor romantic content, what this lead too is that the romance free media channel was filled with graphic hookup erotica or sexually explicit songs and the sex free channel was just fade to black romance books 🙃...wonderful.
Or when polls/forms will ask you to pick your orientation but only things listed are het,gay,bi/pan yes even the ones made by aspecs, and what they actually mean is use the one that correlates to your romantic/sexual attraction...so fvck aroaces and non sam aces & aros?
And don't get me started on how you treat non sam aces & aros. You at least tolerate the self IDing aroaces, because they have the "curtesy" of separating themselves from the real proper aces & aros.(let's not question how many aroaces would prefer to just ID as just asexual or just aromantic but are forced into aroace identity because that would be "conflating" and they don't want to deal with the harassment).
"UwU don't say asexual when you actually mean aromantic" Some bitches don't use to SAM fvck off with allo-splaining my own sexuality to me.
It would be so much easier and save a lot of pain if yall just went : "asexual for some means no sexual attraction and it says nothing of your romantic attraction AND some people use it to mean no attraction generally". And "aromantic for some means no romantic attraction and it says nothing of your sexual attraction AND some people use it to mean no attraction generally" and "for some they are separated but others not so much as there isn't always a strict separation. Just be chill about it don't accuse people of being ignorant or conflating they know their identities better than you". But no ya chose violent aphobia instead.
But ultimately nobody cares because this shit is only harming the undesirable aces/aros the ones who are harmful stereotypes the ones that make you "look bad".
I know deep in my heart there are a lot of alloaces & alloaros that who would be happy if aroaces & non sam aces/aros didn't exist, there I said it. How can I not come to that conclusion when at every turn they shit on us. They talk about how the worst thing in the world is to be mistaken for one of us. That our representation is actively harmful.
A last parting spicy take it's either "asexulity and aromantism are full identities on their own and aren't modifiers" OR "actually neither asexual nor aromantic can stand on their own they need to be paired with another orientation and they actually are just modifiers" you can't have it both ways. 🤭

One of my favorite things about the 1941 date was how unnecessary it all was. The stakes were completely made up. Oh, Mrs. H is ticked at Crowley and her magician can't perform? That's not a real problem. Aziraphale and Crowley are just making up excuses to keep hanging out. They're just showing off for each other and hyping each other up. And it's so cute.
Can you imagine, once they really sort through their issues and understand how deeply they love and are loved back... with the adrenalin of saving the world together and the high of knowing without a doubt that their love is reciprocated.... just how ridiculously they'll be showing off for each other? Like the fate of humanity is in their hands and everything's on fire but also their husband is watching and cheering them on.
These ineffable idiots are going to be so emboldened by love and I can't wait to see what dramatic stupid things they do to impress each other.

I love the Eddie Munson tiktoks, they're my bedtime story before bed every night 🥰 I love that they're still so gross and madly in love after all this time. I was trying to think of a way to ask about Eddie accidentally talking about their sex life occasionally on live, and now I'm imagining Eddie trying to make a spicy tiktok and Steve just laughing his ass off
There’s no ‘accidentally’ about it.
Eddie has talked about sex casually on his channel multiple times because he’s in love with his husband, thinks Steve is hot as hell, and doesn’t think before he talks. They are still grossly affectionate and it’s all over Eddie’s videos.
There are Tiktoks where Eddie is just talking about something and Steve will kiss him on the cheek. There’s a live-stream where Eddie stopped mid-sentence just to kiss Steve. There’s videos filmed where he is draped over Steve or Steve is draped over him, videos of them slapping the other on the ass, or saying that the other looks sexy today.
Someone asks how Eddie keeps the spark in their marriage, and Eddie is just like, “With charm, with grace, with a mysteriously sexy alure and- Did you just laugh? Steve, are you fucking laughing?”
“No,” Steve replies, definitely laughing. “I just – I just wouldn’t put Eddie Munson together with grace – or mysterious.”
“You don’t think I’m mysterious?” Eddie asks. “I was – I was once wanted for murder.”
“You were hiding in a boat house eating dry cereal,” Steve is fully laughing now. “You’re actually very bold and loud about what you want, babe. Not mysterious.”
“I’m still charming.”
“Eh.”
“I am! I will charm your pants off, literally. This week. Just you wait.”
Cue montage of Eddie going about it in the dorkiest way possible. Highlights include:  pick up lines (“Are those space pants because that ass looks like it could fight an alien with a baseball bat and win.” “…They were not aliens!” *bickering ensues*), breaking into Steve’s classroom to decorate it with flowers, bringing him lunch every day dressed as a different 80s romcom character, playing music on a radio outside of their own house, new lube, and using their joint calendar to flirt with Steve.
Eddie posts a Tiktok at like nine pm. Steve’s asleep. Eddie’s hair is a mess and he’s slightly sweaty, and he’s just like, “Charmed him” *thumbs up*
