I analyzed over 10 years of anti-trans legislation. Over 330 bills have passed, with ~300 of them in just the last 5 years. There is no precedent in American history for so many bills to target one particular minority group like this in such a short timeframe.

Sure, but I have to trick myself into not worrying about making stuff good during the process. It's the only way I can shut down the internal doubter/critic long enough to make progress on any writing. I have to trust that I'll be able to make it good through editing 😁
You can do it! It doesn't have to be good, just has to be done!!
Yeah I get that. In that case, efficiency for the win!
Pretty sure they get tallied up the same either way, but maybe they track the number of calls too? I find it easier to keep my points coherent if I do one call per issue
Good point. It's probably worth thinking about what we've gained (or lost) with that increase in detail. Has it been worth it?
Yeah but it seems like the amount of staff hours it would take to make sure you had the right paper in your file would be enormous
a slide with 3 pictures of schools with brightly colored murals stacked on top of one another under the words "Schools in service area". On the other side of the slide, a blank wall of a school under the label "Our partner"
Alright bsky science + art community, I need your help.
I was p confident we could get a grant to fund our upcoming biodiversity mural in Kensington. Last night, they called to say our partner school is 2 blocks outside of their service area.
But ya know what? We're gonna do it anyway.
This one broke me. It's too sad.
Increasing weirdness is the only adequate response to all of this
Alright scientists! It's that time again!

It really feels like these files might contain the radioactive core of bullshit that has been poisoning our country for 40 years. To hell with all of these losers.
Absolutely
I assume it's for optimal thermoregulation
My family sings these constantly... all year long

Even if you foolishly took his words as true it would be disqualifying to be so ignorant of current events. Where is the shaming follow up question about that?
The existence of autistic people is not something that needs to be "cured".
Thank you
Indeed.
I mean, you probably should. But it won't make you feel any better about the world
A very good boy
Like many generations of aunties before you. A proud tradition of side-eying the youths.
These people are monsters
