New from 404 Media: Apple's 'Private Relay' is exposing users' real IP addresses. Private Relay is supposed to protect all your browsing in Safari. But researchers found a bunch of issues that are exposing real IPs. I verified they do. Not fixed, a live issue www.404media.co/apples-priva...

amazing how so few of the gazillion think pieces criticizing women for not dating straight men fail to mention the whole “many of them literally don’t wash their asses” thing:
Nikolaj Bill@nikolajbill.bsky.social · 17h agoI remember a coworker in her late twenties saying this on how dating was so difficult. I was not surprised by her first two complaints: general anger issues and having few outside hobbies. I WAS surprised at her mention of how many men apparently don’t wash their hair or butts.

stating that women and girls need to be protected from trans people is absolutely hate

pleased to announce that I've been hired by The New York Times. my job is to commission articles written by right-wing politicians, activists, and billionaires where they describe their activities in whatever way they see fit. it's nice because I don't have to edit or fact check anything

Hey man, maybe just make the sandwiches and take a pic of them.
Blindingly obvious that this is targeted at “degrees we think women get.”

c0nc0rdance@c0nc0rdance.bsky.social · yesterdayThis unattributed viral video is of divers approaching a school of young barracuda, possibly Sphyraena barracuda, the "great barracuda". They're a misunderstood fish. Ferocious predators known for aggressive behavior, yes, but not a significant threat to human divers, because of how they feed.
