if yr a security culture person who has reason to be super paranoid, its good to keep a phone that's only been charged by a charger that only charges it, and a USB-C cable that has only touched them, just in case your gf's flaky ex plugged something into the wrong slot in an airport in 2017
the first time i heard of it was in a, uh, professional development server of a sort where people went "i bet this would be a pretty cool malware vector so be careful where you stick your charging cables"

I am so disappointed to find out Epstein was hobnobbing with Chomsky. My goat is washed. [Everyone nods at first at the relatable statement, then grows increasingly uncomfortable in the silence as I refuse to clarify the ambiguity]

The smelting company whose representative met Trump sells gold bullion but they also sell tacky collectibles made from precious metals, if you ever wanted to buy a Pez dispenser with solid silver “candies”

very funny to read these emails and then remember summers wondering whether the leaky pipeline in stem was because women are inherently bad at math
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

As someone who works adjacent to the private security industry, what she is receiving from them is called marketing. I'm not saying the threats don't exist, but there's a reason private security is reaching out to her.

I have been asked by non-gun owning friends to teach them how to shoot to protect themselves and I’m like (I have an entire schpiel), we have to be very clear that what you are asking me to do is teach you how to use a gun to kill someone in self defense.
while I am okay with that, are you?

And there's just... a weird trivialization of that lethality at times.
If your concern is surviving, you have to be able to continue to live with yourself after.

what we've learned today:
if you're writing documents that might be discoverable, part of a historical record, etc? say at least one thing that is extremely inflammatory, very funny, and difficult to disprove.
ideally deliver it flat so it's really unclear if it's a joke
