I also like this explanation, i.e. they simply forget women’s sports exist when they don’t need them as a cudgel against trans people, because actually “it never occurred to a single one of us that a man would go to a women’s basketball game” is an even more stunning self-own

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

This is the coolest girl around and I want to be her friend so bad

girlscouts What happens when a pet owner doesn't have the information they need to properly care for a reptile?
Gold Award Girl Scout Sicilia saw how a lack of education could impact reptiles and local ecosystems, so she took action. For her #gsGoldAward project, she created educational videos focused on proper bearded dragon care and shared what she learned with younger Girl Scouts through presentations on responsible pet ownership.
By making reliable care information more accessible, Sicilia created a resource that can continue helping reptile owners make informed choices long after her project. *t

i love how strongly anti-AI young buckaroos are, and the creative community is, and basically anyone who knows anything about it. but dang i wish folks brought that kind of fight to the world of erotica. such a sneaky reveal of how those who CLAIM to care actually dont see erotica as 'real art'

Screenshot of two tweets.

First reads: "Doing my lunch duty and 2 year 7s have just rolled out a picnic blanket, sat down, got out 2 actual mugs, filled them with tea from a flask and got a pack of biscuits out. Incredible."

The second replies: "I once caught a year 7 having a fag and a can of fosters at lunch time. Our catchment areas may differ."
