The moment when you realize that maintaining a friendship with someone you once loved isn’t going to work out is both liberating and disappointing.
If I am being honest with myself though, this is the way it needs to be. Living in the past is hardly healthy, and sometimes the only way to move on is by severing the ties to the past. I wish I could say that I was more upset about this. Its been a long process to get here, a lot of emotions to deal with, but in the end I have emerged from this a stronger person.
“This is the end, beautiful friend, the end.”
Meet Deric Lostutter, a 26-year-old cybersecurity consultant who also goes by the moniker “KYAnonymous.” Lostutter obtained and published tweets and Instagram photos in which members of the Steubenville High School football team joked about an incident in which a 16-year-old girl was raped.
Lostutter’s actions inspired a group of people to take justice into their own hands. A hacker called “Bobcat” vandalized the Facebook page of the Steubenville football team. Other hackers took similar action.
It’s unclear if Lostutter participated in any hacking shenanigans, but if he’s indicted and found guilty of any, he faces 10 years in jail. By comparison, the Steubenville rapists received one- and two-year sentences each.
Done.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Moving to tamp down a public uproar spurred by the disclosure of two secret surveillance programs, the nation’s top intelligence official is declassifying key details about one of the programs while insisting the efforts were legal, limited in scope and necessary to detect terrorist threats.
Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, in an unusual late-night statement Thursday, denounced the leaks of highly classified documents that revealed the programs and warned that America’s security will suffer. He called the disclosure of a program that targets foreigners’ Internet use “reprehensible,” and said the leak of another program that lets the government collect Americans’ phone records would affect how America’s enemies behave and make it harder to understand their intentions.
Got a call back from QFC today and got really excited. Unfortunately my hopes for employment were dashed within a few seconds of this when the lady on the other end informed me that they did not do any summer hiring.
Fuck.
This.
Shit.
Its nights like tonight that I really just want to watch a movie with someone.
