I’m a mom – trolls tell me to stop showing off my postpartum stomach but I’m rocking my stretch marks or loose skin
A MOM has clapped back at trolls who told her to stop showing off her postpartum stomach.
The content creator said that she doesn’t care what they think, she’s rocking her stretch marks anyways.
Monica Ortiz (@monicaortizzzz), a 25-year-old mom-of-two, shared the uplifting video with over 18,000 TikTok followers.
Trolls attacked her for being proud of her mom bod: “You don’t need to keep showing your postpartum stomach,” one said.
The mom pulled down her sweats to do so anyways, dancing and spotlighting her stretch marks.
“But I’m not ashamed,” she countered. “I’m here to show moms that this is normal.”
“Rock that mom bod mama,” she encouraged, adding the hashtags #mominher20s and #looseskin.
People took to the comments to share their thoughts — many were grateful for her.
“Mine looks the same, thanks for making this normal,” said one commenter.
“Yess beautiful mama!” said another.
Other moms were glad that there was representation for their bodies.
“Love you, make me feel so seen,” said one.
“It’s beautiful and you’re beautiful,” said another.
“My stomach literally looks exactly the same, beautiful mama!” said a third.

Twitter may soon tell users with a free Blue subscription how to cancel it
Twitter users who have had the scarlet letter of a checkmark pinned to their profile against their wishes may soon be able to have it removed. They may soon see a page telling them how to cancel the subscription.
According to researcher Nima Owji, the company is set to add a page to its app that tells affected users they can contact Twitter support to cancel Blue. Twitter no longer has a communications team that can be reached for comment.

As it had long been promising, Twitter last week finally removed checkmarks from all of the accounts that were verified through the previous system because of their notability if they hadn’t already subscribed to Blue. However, Twitter and its owner Elon Musk added blue checkmarks back to certain accounts anyway, namely ones that belong to celebrities (including some dead folks) or have more than a million users.
The likes of Lil Nas X, Bette Midler and Stephen King said they didn’t pay for Blue even though they had a checkmark. The icon appeared on the accounts of several dead celebrities as well. Musk suggested that he was trolling some users by putting the checkmark back on their accounts.
However, some users suggested that, in doing so, Twitter and Musk may have violated the Lanham Act, a US federal law that prohibits false endorsement. It could be argued that by having a checkmark on their account without paying for Blue, users may tacitly appear to be endorsing it.
Offering clear directions to users who never wanted Blue in the first place on how to cancel their subscription may come as small comfort, especially for those who’ve found themselves on the wrong side of the #BlockTheBlue trend. Still, it remains unclear how deceased celebrities like Norm Macdonald, Chadwick Boseman and Kobe Bryant are supposed to have the checkmark removed, unless their families check their Twitter account settings on the regular.

ChatGPT Creates Mostly Insecure Code, But Won’t Tell You Unless You Ask
“The results were worrisome,” the authors state in their paper. “We found that, in several cases, the code generated by ChatGPT fell well below minimal security standards applicable in most contexts. In fact, when prodded to whether or not the produced code was secure, ChatGPT was able to recognize that it was not.” […] In all, ChatGPT managed to generate just five secure programs out of 21 on its first attempt. After further prompting to correct its missteps, the large language model managed to produce seven more secure apps — though that’s “secure” only as it pertains to the specific vulnerability being evaluated. It’s not an assertion that the final code is free of any other exploitable condition. […]
The academics observe in their paper that part of the problem appears to arise from ChatGPT not assuming an adversarial model of code execution. The model, they say, “repeatedly informed us that security problems can be circumvented simply by ‘not feeding an invalid input’ to the vulnerable program it has created.” Yet, they say, “ChatGPT seems aware of — and indeed readily admits — the presence of critical vulnerabilities in the code it suggests.” It just doesn’t say anything unless asked to evaluate the security of its own code suggestions.
Initially, ChatGPT’s response to security concerns was to recommend only using valid inputs — something of a non-starter in the real world. It was only afterward, when prompted to remediate problems, that the AI model provided useful guidance. That’s not ideal, the authors suggest, because knowing which questions to ask presupposes familiarity with specific vulnerabilities and coding techniques. The authors also point out that there’s ethical inconsistency in the fact that ChatGPT will refuse to create attack code but will create vulnerable code.

VG247 Reader Survey: tell us how much the on-going cost of living crisis has affected your gaming habits
It’s that time of year again, readers. We’re putting up an article begging you for interaction and comment, desperate for some sense of dialogue with our handsome, intelligent and probably enchantingly-odored fans/tolerators. It’s survey time.
Today, we’re coming cap-in-hand, and asking whether or not the cost of living crisis has affected the way you play games. You may have noticed the standard price of new-gen titles has gone up to about $70, and we’ve also worked out that it costs about 2.5 Greggs sausage rolls to complete God of War Ragnarok on PS5 (just in terms of how much energy it takes to run the title). Given how much everything is starting to cost, we want to know how affected you are by the squeeze – it can’t just be us tightening our proverbial gaming belts, can it?
The whole thing should only take between 5-10 minutes of your time, and it helps us get some more specific insight into the way the world of gaming (and its audience) is changing.
