If I got hacked by someone with an AOL address, I wouldn't tell anyone either.

I keep getting texts from the "USPS" saying that a package has arrived at the warehouse but can't be delivered because of incomplete address information. But somehow my phone number was on the package? Huh. Delete.

I heard someone say that a beard is like contouring for men and now every time I see Vance, it's all I can think of.

RuPaul says "We are all born naked, the rest is drag."

Maybe, with Jeb! Davis Vance, we can make an exception to that rule?

A hacked account that only leaks data about JDVance? Sounds like Donald to me, trying to get rid of his horrible, no-good, really bad VP choice.

I do not think that these eegits are smart enough to have a "fake" dossier on Vance but I would proceed with caution on this leak. Especially since Robert seems a bit shady here.

Re: the aol.com email address.

Who cares that such was used? There’s nothing wrong with still using an aol.com email address. Why is it “better” to use gmail?

I know several people still using the aol email address they got in the 90s. Changing an email address is a pain, and if something works, why switch? Why the gloating, as if to say, “you’re an old and you’re just not cool!”

(For the record: I went from the aol thing to a custom/personal domain I registered back in the mid 90s. The web site isn’t much more than a shell, but personal subversion and git servers are hosted there, too, and the email works great.)

The question to ask is why people were accessing personal email on work machines, and why that wasn’t blocked.

Do we want to be having an email conversation? Those haven't worked out well with Presidential candidates.

I'll decay before I see the media breathlessly and slavishly post about this like they did the DNC hack in 2016...

Too late

Unless you're also already decaying, of course

With any republican operation I'd say it's a safe bet at least 20% of them are using "password" as their password.

I mean he was in a wig and a dress, but I'm not sure THAT counts as drag. We have to have some standards here.

Yes, I've been watching a lot of RPDR. Why do you ask?

Ru has style for miles... not terribly into the show, but I always appreciate Ru Paul when I do.

I'm not saying it was a GOOD thing for Podesta's email to get hacked, but I've appreciated the risotto tips.

Everyone in my department got a phishing scam that began

"Dear (Email User),"

Note, the (Email User) was actually in the message: Maybe they meant to substitute the recipient's names, but they didn't.

I got an email from the condo association that said, "...anyone whose driveway was not sealed will be taken care of on (insert date and time here)."

Lazy hackers, not even bothering to use Mail Merge.

Like a rookie salesman approaching you by saying, "Hello, sir or madam!"
