The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.

Data potentially accessed by the hack includes things like names, usernames, emails, and the last four digits of credit card numbers.
The unauthorized party also accessed a “small number” of images of government IDs from “users who had appealed an age determination.”
Full credit card numbers and passwords were not impacted by the breach, Discord says.
The company is notifying impacted users now over email.
If your ID might have been accessed, Discord will specify that.…

I don't currently subscribe to Game Pass and haven't for years, but I still get their emails. I find it interesting that today they just sent out an email with the subject 'Xbox Game Pass is better than ever'-- the very day after I read that Microsoft is raising the price of Game Pass by 50% 😂

The White House’s aggressive push to hire federal immigration agents is causing friction with local sheriffs
– even those who back Donald Trump’s deportation agenda.
More than a dozen US sheriffs and law enforcement associations have
complained that US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice)
has tried to poach local deputies and officers as Ice rapidly expands.
“It is unprofessional and unethical,” Grady Judd, the sheriff in Polk county, Florida, told the Guar…

Always, always, ALWAYS check out the "source" of any promotional offers you get. Don't click links in the message. Go to your favorite search engine, look up the organization, and verify from there.

I think my most-sent email of all time is "Does Tuesday at 2 pm work for you?" followed closely by "No worries, how about Wednesday?" 🫠
But what if you could just... not do that anymore?
There’s a scheduling tool hiding in plain sight in Gmail that ends all this nonsense. You offer times, they click once, and poof—it's in the calendar.
I filmed a quick guide on it because this needs to be public knowledge:

One great thing about Proton mail is that they managed to include a simple 'Trash' option on the notifications for new mail alongside 'Archive' and 'Mark read'. It's such a small thing, but it's massively useful and is a time saver -- so you don't need to open each new email to delete it. Maybe Google will add that functionality someday, but Gmail still doesn't have it.
EDIT: Gmail doesn't have it for ME? I'm hearing others might have it?…

glad people are advocating for more tree planting opportunities in sf! if you email, consider asking them for a permit process to plant trees in bulbouts in the parking lane too. this allows for larger tree beds, healthier trees and built in traffic calming and is common in berkeley & santa cruz but currently not permitted in sf!

On Friday Oct. 10, MIT President Sally Kornbluth formally rejected the Trump administration's proposed compact in an email to the U.S. Education Secretary Linda McMahon.
This decision came after mounting pressure from many MIT organizations, students and faculty alike, that called on the Institute to formally reject the compact.
MIT is the first university to openly decline the compact.

In her response to Secretary McMahon, President Kornbl…

It's tempting to do everything as fast as possible:
listen to podcasts on double speed,
work in email-free sprints,
or train at lung-bursting intensity in the gaps between your morning meditation and the school run.
But evidence is piling up that the last one might not be as beneficial as it seems
– and that, in fact, just introducing a lot more ultra-low-intensity movement into your schedule can improve your fitness as well as your quality of life,

US Open broadcasters have been asked not to show any negative crowd reactions to Donald Trumpat Sunday’s men’s final.
The president is expected to attend the match between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in New York, with security at Flushing Meadows being heightened in preparation.
