    Team #WordPress, if you use Pods and did not update to 3.3.9 prior to August 16, consider your site compromised. Check for recent password changes and new Administrator users, but do not expect email notifications from either. Look for an .html payload at the root of your website. Look for changes in core, theme, and plugin files, especially index.php. It was less than a day between disclosure and attacks in the wild.

    Oof, if celebrity deaths happen in threes, I’m very worried for everyone as beloved at Dolly Parton and Tim Curry. There are a few I’m especially worried about. For example, one whose last name rhymes with his catch phrase: “Oh my.”

    I voted today. Even though it was a primary, in the smallest state, with half the seats running unopposed, I got to vote. TY to everyone who fought for this right. FY to everyone trying to take it away.

    I’ve been missing Paris, but thank bjork for the American diner. We can pull off the road in Connecticut and I can grab a vegan Reuben and a Naughty Nurse beer to fortify me for the rest of the trip home.

    Very disappointed in this Vermont trip. I was led to believe the mountains would be green. They are not. One star. 🍁

    RE: https://fosstodon.org/@carlrichell/116371174600192683 I must be honest here. I love driving it. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.

    Montréal recommendations? Melissa had a rough couple of weeks so we&amp;#39;re going to sprint up to the city for a few days for a treat, starting ... now. I haven&amp;#39;t been since the 80s, but I still have a cassette tape I bought from a busker, so it left an impression! Accessibility tips are appreciated, too.

    WordPress people, if you use Gravity SMTP you need to update the plugin on all your sites and churn your email API keys immediately. This is being actively exploited: https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/wordpress-plugins/gravitysmtp/gravity-smtp-214-unauthenticated-sensitive-information-exposure-via-rest-api
