this person knows they are bullying people

they know they're part of a mob that's making the site unusable for the staff and they're engaging in intentional mockery/knife-twisting here

a massive proportion of other trans people are this kind of bully these days. it's really depressing

i wasn't using it but it is such unserious site things that access to the Quiet Posters feed, which is part of the functionality the site has advertised on official accounts just broke for 300k people because it runs out of the tech advisor's personal account and he's a thin skinned AI baby

This thread is a masterclass of informed critique.

“Verification gets reduced to selective fact-display. Deliberation runs as theatre while the questions that matter are ruled out of order. Accountability gets pointed at critics while leadership is left untouched. This is VDA as simulation.”

The last few years have definitely made me feel A Way about all that harassment I experienced in the early 00s that led me to trying to keep images of me off the internet as much as possible, that's for sure. That having been said: this is way less sweeping than people are worried about.

"Strange even to the men who used them" "Atomic bombs" before the discovery of fission

On DOOMSDAY MACHINES, this week I dive into the idea of “atomic bombs” before the discovery of nuclear fission made them actually feasible. I’ve long thought it makes for an interesting case study — a fateful intersection of scientific fact and science fiction. doomsdaymachines.net/p/strange-ev...

Big pharma gave us the vaccine that allowed people to get their lives back.

Big pharma gave us ozempic which is helping people live longer healthier lies.

Big pharma gave us PrEp, which has severely curtailed HIV risk.

Like yes its money hungry and shitty sometimes. But also drugs are dope

"Here’s a thought experiment: Imagine a sitting governor who ascended to power as a feminist hero is running for the U.S. Senate. She has a record of service in the interest of shared prosperity, social liberalism, and the environment. As governor, she expanded Medicaid, terminating work requirements for the poor to access healthcare, and easily won reelection. She eliminated tuition at community colleges, making a long-standing goal of Democratic politics, articulated by everyone from Jesse Jackson in the 1980s to Barack Obama in the 2010s, a reality in her state. Meanwhile, her record on climate change earned enough international accolades for her to become the first U.S. governor to address the United Nations General Assembly. During her speech, she delineated a plan to make her state carbon-neutral by 2045. At a moment of crisis when political courage is a necessity, she advocated for transgender rights, challenging Donald Trump, to his face, at the White House on his bigotry and ignorance. She refused to relent even after Trump threatened to freeze federal funding for agricultural projects in her state, eventually winning a court decision to restore those subsidies."

there are so many people who insist on not knowing anything about Janet Mills, not only is it ridiculous for people to support Platner who has no record and a sea of red flags

its equally ridiculous that people ignore Mills impressive record

TBH, subsidizing cow farts destroying the atmosphere or w/e is just one of those things we're gonna have to do regardless of what the big chart says because bovine methane emissions are still not as dangerous as the Hitler particle emissions from when burger price go up.

Periodic reminder: everyone, and I mean everyone, in the US who is reading this should have umbrella insurance coverage (available as an add-on to your homeowners or renters insurance coverage) that covers the cost of your legal bills if you are sued civilly.

I have an unpopular take that we need to cool it with the "big pharma" rhetoric because it very easily transitions into the antivax gateway for the crunchy-to-fashy pipeline.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: scene from the movie Aliens; Ripley is in a mech suit and delivers her iconic line: “get away from her, you bitch!” Panel 2: the xenomorph queen lunges at Ripley in the robotic suit and they engage in a fight. Panel 3: later, the xenomorph queen is standing in the shower, mid wash. She says, “‘it takes one to know one, honey.’ That’s what I should have said.”

“So it was, on that misty morning, that Brenda set off for the capital. She knew not what she would find there, only that the time had come to move on - away from small-minded rural attitudes and people who called her ‘Oreo’ and ‘the wide panda’ - to seek a more fulfilling life.”

I love this, it feels like it and that TNG concept you posted are plausible ancestors of the 31st century Federation HQ.

They sell ANDOR action figures, of course, and of course the audience is 35-50-year-olds, but it's deeply funny to imagine children playing with little Luthen Rael and Saw Gerrera dolls.

CHILD 1: I think violence is not only justified, but demanded
CHILD 2: I agree, but haste could be our undoing
