Until last week, I thought "mogging" was etymologically linked to "moggy" (a non-pedigreed cat) because cats are so cool.
I'm sad to be wrong.

WYPR was an independent radio station, doing its best to serve the community.
Baltimore Public Media, as we were told in a staff meeting a little less than a year ago, is "not a radio station, it's a community engagement organization."
I didn't know what that meant then, and I definitely don't now.

The IOC's New Policy Isn't Really a Trans Story Every headline says the IOC banned trans women from the Olympics. The athletes who’ll actually be barred are cis women who’ve never heard of the SRY gene.

The AP's story on the IOC's new policy mentions that it "also restricts" athletes like two-time Olympic gold medalist Caster Semenya. That word "also" is doing a lot of work. New piece on who this policy is actually about: www.readtpa.com/p/the-iocs-n...

What Actually Happens When Cisgender Men Take Oestrogen How transgender women’s brain chemistry interacts with oestrogen compared to their cisgender peers.

Status Scoop | ProPublica's Walkout Warning: The possibility of ProPublica staffers walking off the job just got far more serious. Unionized staffers at the nonprofit newsroom voted overwhelmingly this week to authorize a strike, Natalie Korach has learned. The ProPublica Guild represents about 150 journalists, videographers, and other newsroom employees. A major sticking point in the negotiations with management has centered on the use of artificial intelligence in reporting, with the union demanding protections from having jobs replaced by the rapidly advancing technology. “We are ready to walk off the job to show management that their refusal to agree to basic protections will not be tolerated and that we will not accept anything less than a fair contract,” said Agnel Philip, unit chair of ProPublica Guild.

"Policy statements like this one can reflect the complex and opaque internal politics of an organization, rather than dispassionate scientific analysis. The journalist Aaron Sibarium’s reporting strongly suggests that a small group of A.A.P. members, many of whom were themselves youth gender medicine providers, played a disproportionate role in developing these guidelines."

Yeah, why would experts in a field of care drive the developments of policy statements about it. It should be people who have no idea about the field at all and have never met a trans person. /s
