I heard you used to work with Mafioso. You were even said to be a heartless hitman! What was your interaction with Mafioso like?

How did you—?

. . .

Err, nah. Can’t say much. I don’t even know the guy, but he is to be feared after all. Wooo, the big mafia boss, the debt collector himself! I am not sure where you even got that info from ‘cause thats clearly not true. I think you’ve mistaken me for someone else.

btw started to take actions on making myself more masculine recently for some reason

before i was like "ughhhh I'll never be who i really am i should just give up" but in the last two weeks i found out about testosterone pills and packers?? like, if any surgery is impossible for me, maybe i can at least make myself FEEL like a man. I never felt big desire to pass in other people's eyes (because god i DON'T CARE about others they will never understand me anyway), but at least i want to feel more comfortable for myself.

being a trans person in russia sure is a hell experience, nobody will even try to NOT misgender or deadname me, I'm not even talking about hrt and surgeries. But. I'm not giving up, I'll try to make myself as comfortable as i can, without drawing any unwanted attention.

Fuck the system, even if i don't pass at all I'M A MAN! I ALWAYS WAS A MAN! 💪

I'm already outside wearing a handmade packer, a binder and smelling like a men deodorant. Feeling significantly confident than before. If some stranger calls me a lady, I'LL CORRECT THEM. BECAUSE THEY WON'T SEE ME EVER AGAIN ANYWAYS. I'LL JUST MAKE ANOTHER PERSON THINK THAT I'M A MAN. AND THAT'S BETTER THAN NOTHING.

RAHHHHHHHHH TRANS RIGHTS 💪💪💪💪‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

The Evolution of Hacking: From Cyberpunk Fantasy to Real-World Reality

Hacking has been a part of internet culture for as long as there’s been an internet to hack. For some, it’s a rebellious act—tearing down the walls built by corporations or governments. For others, it’s an artform, a way of playing with systems, seeing how far you can push boundaries. But what does hacking really mean today? And why does it still capture our imagination?

Historically, hacking has been portrayed as a dark art. Think back to movies like The Matrix or Hackers—hackers as antiheroes, taking down the system from the inside. But while these portrayals are often exaggerated, they did reflect a truth: hacking represents a desire to reclaim power and control. In a world where tech companies and governments collect personal data and monitor our every move, hacking is one way to level the playing field.

In the real world, hacking has taken on many forms. There’s ethical hacking, where people are hired to test systems for vulnerabilities, and there’s black-hat hacking, which involves illegal activities. But even those who engage in illegal hacking often see themselves as part of a larger rebellion against control and surveillance.

It’s easy to romanticize hacking, to see it as this cool, underground world of rebellious acts and revolutionary potential. But the reality is more complex. Hacking today isn’t just about taking down the man; it’s about finding flaws, building something new, or even just learning how things work beneath the surface. It’s about pushing boundaries, challenging authority, and questioning the systems that run our world.

And perhaps that’s the real reason hacking still resonates with so many people. It’s not just a skill or a rebellion—it’s a form of empowerment. It’s the ability to break free from the constraints placed on us, even if only for a moment.

In a world where everything feels so rigid, so controlled, hacking is the ultimate act of freedom. It’s a reminder that the digital world is malleable, that we can create our own paths through it, and that the rules are often made to be broken.

Tbt the time I got in a fight with an Italian communist in the comment section of their ao3 star wars fanfic and they asked why I was writing political rpf about people who didn't elevate the working class (except Snowden) and I countered that ideological proselytizing in fiction will never 100% come to pass even in a leftist system as indicated by the various chinese-language fics of george w bush/vladimir putin erotica.

did some messing around with sound design, do you know how difficult it is to 1) find soundbits of a horse that is upset and 2) find soundbits of men speaking loudly in a group

[gingerswagfreckles]

Really fucking weird how the whole #russianhackers thing is so quickly becoming a meme and like #cringe when it is literally true. Just because something sounds weird doesn't mean it isn't true?? Like Anonymous Sudan is actually literally a hacker group based in Russia thats been investigated numerous times by cybersecurity experts.....I cannot for the life of me tell u why they decided to target Ao3 but they did. Sorry it sounds #cringe to u. Sometimes reality is like that.

[tittyinfinity]

You ever get hacked, but like, it's kinda funny and the person isn't being malicious so you just kinda let them

me to donkey: does tumblr even stan a girl boss?

nope, "splitting the vote" did not get trump the white house in 2016, lmao US history class is now in session

Reality Winner, a person, not anything but a young lady from Georgia, a millennial even, working in Florida, working for the federal government, leaked that the Russians hacked everything in the election up to and including actual voting machines and the tallies they created, how much more specific can I be, they cooked up the votes to get Trump in if that makes sense. You can google any of this, it's all out there publicly available info that I find so few people are aware of...

Reality Winner went to prison for 4 years over leaking this, which is interesting considering they don't send you to prison for mis-information, slander, or libel (unless you're the governor of Mississippi and you're going after a journalist who nailed you for corruption but won't reveal their source so you're jailing her over not revealing her source, but that's another story)

is it any mistake that Oregon, the whitest state in the USA, is the only state with total vote-by-mail voting? Every other state, y'know, where there are more black people, makes people wait in line like a soviet bread line, because they want that poll tax, they want it to cost a day's wage to vote if you're black, they want those illegal poll taxes so bad it's illegal to give people water in Georgia, but you don't wanna bring up how those poll taxes are incredibly unconstitutional and how it's unconscionable that we don't have total 100% vote by mail access in this country, but you wanna blame that darn Bernie or Jill. Open your eyes maybe

there are 46 million registered Democrats, and 38 million registered generally oppressive people, why the fuck are we allowing them to fully always and forever control the house and senate, and steal every other election dating back to that Gore v Bush scotus coup in 2000, but no let's not talk about how scotus committed a coup why not just blame ralph nader? (lol this was me, I remember writing an article for the high school paper blasting Ralph Nader with this exact same point, and even then, my high school paper editor was like, "eh, ok no. Not printing that. Thanks though." And he was right!

if you take away third party candidates, the russians will still steal the vote count you're still going to lose

I'm not saying don't vote blue, I will be, but this issue isn't about those pesky far-left-wingers letting their votes get split, it's about literal coups stealing the elections that are always landslides for progressives, 46-38 million registered dems to GOP remember, we should be winning every election in a fucking landslide but the playing field is so goddamn slanted we're lucky to have what we have now

let's focus on election security, eliminating poll taxes, and admit we can't blam-the-far-left our way out of this... I agree, vote blue this election, I will be, but I'm 10trillion times more concerned about Russians hacking the voting totals than I am about people voting 3rd party, I'm 10trillion times more worried unconstitutional poll taxes, the lack of vote by mail access, and evil bosses who know what they're doing and try to deny PTO on voting day will keep working class people / Democrats away from the polls

further noting you can be fired for voting on voting day in these states, yes bosses can still disenfranchise working class voters at will in these states, and fire workers who disobey and decide to vote anyway and that's fully legal.

"States that don’t mandate any time off to vote

Connecticut

Delaware

Florida

Idaho

Indiana

Louisiana

Maine

Michigan

Mississippi

Montana

New Hampshire

New Jersey

North Carolina

North Dakota, which has a law “encouraging” companies to give employees time to vote, but doesn’t actually require them to do so

Pennsylvania

Rhode Island

South Carolina

Vermont

Virginia

Washington"

Whatever happens, two things remain true: 1. Trump might be distancing himself from Project 2025, but his Agenda 47, which is on his website, is basically the same thing. 2. Third party voting is useless without ranked choice voting; it's mathematically impossible to elect a third party candidate. DO NOT SPLIT THE VOTE.

I know it’s dumb drama, but the fact Jimmy Dore and his defenders can’t understand that calling attention to a woman’s short skirt while she’s bending over in a crowded is sexual harrassment is beyond me.

We don’t need to believe Ana’s testimony, when Jimmy Dore openly bragged about how he sexually harrassed Ana himself.

Jimmy Dore is first and foremost a grifter, a liar and an abuser whose presense within "The left" really should lead to wide spread self questioning on the left about what kind of people we allow into our movement. The man is clearly scum and shouldn't be anywhere near leftist positions
