"Redmond also advised admins to notify their organizations' helpdesk teams and users before the app is forcibly installed on their devices 'to reduce confusion and support requests."

I told my twins that if I die they should Weekend at Bernie's me on a ferry to the Isle of Wight and push me off, to save on a funeral. They shared this in a primary school class on animal lifecycles. Cue concerned WhatsApp voice note from their teacher.

Borrowed from fakebook.

My daughter came home from school and said,
“Mom, you’re not going to believe what happened in history class today.”

Her teacher told the class they were going to play a game.
He walked around the room and whispered to each kid whether they were a witch or just a regular person. Then he gave the instructions:

“Form the biggest group you can without a witch. If your group has even one, you all fail.”

She said the whole room instantly lit up with suspicion.
Everyone started interrogating each other. Are you a witch? How do we know you’re not lying?
Some kids clung to one big group, but most broke off into smaller, exclusive cliques. They turned away anyone who seemed uncertain, nervous, or gave off even the slightest hint of being guilty.

The energy shifted fast. Suddenly everyone was suspicious of everyone.
Whispers. Finger-pointing. Side-eyes. Trust dissolved in minutes.

Finally, when all the groups were formed, the teacher said,
“Alright, time to find out who fails. Witches, raise your hands.”

And not one hand went up.

The whole class exploded. “Wait! You messed up the game!”

And then the teacher dropped the bomb:
“Did I? Were there any actual witches in Salem, or did everyone just believe what they were told?”

My daughter said the room went dead silent.

That’s when it hit them. No witch was ever needed for the damage to happen. Fear had already done its work. Suspicion alone divided the entire class, turning community into chaos.

And isn’t that exactly what we’re seeing today?
Different words, same playbook.
Instead of “witch,” it’s liberal, conservative, vaxxed, unvaxxed, pro-this, anti-that.
The labels shift, but the tactic is the same.

Get people scared. Get them suspicious. Get them divided.
Then sit back while trust crumbles.

The danger was never the witch.
The danger is the rumor. The suspicion. The fear. The planted lies.

Refuse the whisper. Don’t play the game. Because the second we start hunting “witches,” we’ve already lost.

I’ll say the elephant in the room - due to the sheer amount of Salesforce customers who have been hit, and that Salesforce is a fully SaaS service - Salesforce should have detected and been more proactive about all of their customer’s data being stolen. databreaches.net/2025/09/11/ex

if I didn't already have a naming convention for network hardware, my new PoE switch would definitely be getting called Edgar

I like to think that the shooter in the crowd wasn't even planning anything, but then saw Kirk standing there talking about how gun violence isn't a big deal and how gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay for upholding the second amendment, and thought "ok I have the opportunity to do the funniest thing right now"

A bit absorbed in my own wee world at the moment as we get sorted for The Teenager starting uni. Super happy for them, but it is a Big Thing.

It's interesting how memories of my own youthful foolishness, that had been blurred with the passing of time, have shot back into focus as I attempt to pass on parental advice. Being grown up is such a shaky facade at times 😆

I'm going to enjoy having an excuse to head into the city though. I do like a bit of culture.

Not that there was much doubt but... After seeing Trump's letter to Epstein. Pedo as fuck. USA has a pedophile for a president. It's hard to even imagine that America could reach any lower of a rock bottom, but I'm sure my fellow Americans will surprise me, as they have countless times before.
