This is such a patently true statement. It’s like decidedly non-controversial in basically any circle I’m in. Yet the various pseudo pundits of no color are up in arms?!

How i spent pride wknd and my bday

Image taken from the ground pointing up underneath an intricate light display. Four people are featured. The main focus of the image is a woman in a skirt looking down at the canera.

Crowd of people looking up at a stage flooded with purple light on which a drag queen named Maiden China wears a TV for a head

Image taken from opposite two people at a full dinner table. On the left a woman with short hair is leaning in to kiss a man on the right who is blushing and looking into the camera. The man ha devil horns geled in his hair.

This actually is so fucking egregious. People who are or have been incarcerated matter. Full stop. Ive seen other folks name this as a domino in the line toward toppling adult trans care. Even if it weren’t, no one should be subject to conversion torture.

Also have you ever seen presenters decide there either was something concurrent to their session they’d rather be at or that there weren’t enough people there for their panel and so they just dip?! The thought would never have occurred to me to just bail on my own panel…

If your research is outperformed by an LLM then say that. Mine isn’t. Most of my colleagues whom I’ve spoken to about this aren’t worried. Why is the LLM, a marketing tool in search of a dependent user base kits makers can subscribe to death, suggesting we might be outpaced? 🧐

We keep hearing we have to embrace penitent Trump voters, but if you don’t want to, remember this: 77.3M Americans voted for Trump. But 90M didn’t vote at all. It’s more palatable (and better strategy) to reach the latter than to make room for people who chose bigotry and now want to cry about it.

Hey all, here's a post at @ssrc.org about how anti-trans talking points are getting wrapped into Google's AI search results. AI search not only cites anti-trans disinfo, but sanitizes it, making practices like conversion therapy sound legitimate and safe.

Visiting my alma mater to give a talk on my book project (which is VERY MUCH in progress mind you). It’s really a dream come true and feels like a homecoming. WGSS at UNCG shaped me in such profound ways and without my training there I would not be the scholar I am today. Simply thrilled!

Is it really such an untenable idea that social media could or even SHOULD be public goods?! Like is it just gonna always remain the case that to be on the internet is to subject oneself to ever more horrors under the guise of “terms of service,” “moderation,” and “compliance.”

The thought occurs to me that anti trans activists are so hellbent on the idea that we have been “transed” or that we are transing youth because they themselves feel recognize on some level their genders were foisted upon them so they assume a trans gender must be as well 🤔
