She's largely known for her science fiction and fantasy books. I really recommend her Lady Astronaut series (alternate history of space exploration) and her Regency fantasy Glamourist Histories. If you're an audiobook listener she narrates all those herself and also some other authors books.

Mary Robinette is a fantastic author (and narrator) but I didn't know she'd gotten into translation as well. I'll have to check it out.

like literally guys it's time to come to jesus. i don't care about your morals, you're going to hell but that's not important right now. hold my hand when i tell you this: if your strategy is "everyone just do what i want no matter how i treat you", you will lose 100% of the time. come ON.

Can we get through the municipal elections first? The same people who staff up the local Elections BC offices are currently running the municipal elections.

Do you honestly believe that the duty free at YVR is currently run by the federal government? Is the Starbucks at Pearson run by the Public Service of Canada? Those things are already run by private, for profit, businesses. This concession is for the operation of the airport itself.

Americans don't have the patience or ability to think in the long term necessary to "recover". When the next administration is unable to instantly fix everything you will toss them out for the next bunch of scapegoating assholes with easy solutions.

this is what we're all telling you. a democratic majority that includes talarico and others like him is more dangerous to us. because the 'reasonable' versions of anti-trans bills will get written and passed and you all will go back to brunch and not care. you don't care what happens to us.

Cis lib: no, no, no. You don't get it. You have to vote for the transphobic Democrat because otherwise bad policies would affect ME and not just you.

somehow, trans people simultaneously matter enough in an electoral sense that we can be blamed — even preemptively! — for a loss, but not enough that we “deserve to be catered to” when “so much is at stake.”

This is why you can't compromise with transphobes. Additionally the UK is like this as a direct result of JKRs actions and it's why you can never engage with Harry Potter again.

This is one of the most disgusting and racist things I've ever seen. The right in Canada are selling dead Indigenous children t-shirts that promote genocide denial. Children's bones have been dug up at this point but it's never enough for them.
Here’s the pitch, more or less: shirts that tell Canadians to “dig deeper,” to demand “evidence” before believing First Nations, journalists, or anyone else who talks about unmarked graves — because, in their telling, those claims “shame” the nation and are being used to justify a national holiday. They frame it as a free-speech stand. Tired of being told what you’re allowed to question, they say. Make your voice heard.

When all of the worst fucking people you have *ever* seen are transphobic, being pro-trans is a huge way of indicating that you actually might disagree with them. Dem centrists, by constantly trying to throw trans people into the woodchipper too, indicate how much they agree with these freaks.

Why would locals ever help the US military again? They seem intent on using the military for everything yet treating everyone involved as "suckers and losers".

More directly the expression means "all talk and no action" and suggests someone talks a big game with no follow through. Somehow not having "enough" people vote for separation will be worse for Alberta than trouncing his clown posse thoroughly. Just look how well close votes worked out for Quebec!

He's suggesting that if there isn't a "respectable" level of support people will think that separatism was never a serious movement and future threats won't be taken seriously. This is supposedly a bad thing that Alberta should avoid.

It's not about the tariffs. We don't take his repeated threats to annex Canada as jokes. He ignores agreements he negotiated himself. He only speaks of us with threats and contempt. Yet most articles, including this one, only mention tariffs. Until Americans get this we can't have a relationship.

For at least the next decade it's critical that the American government does everything in its power to demonstrate it is worth trusting again. The military and civil service need to know that it's worth developing a career there. Governments need to believe that it's worth negotiating with the US.

Mary Robinette Kowal's Lady Astronaut series is great retro futuristic sci-fi. The diminutive, belittling sexism in the series title is thoroughly subverted in the text.

I've also noticed some people being utterly confused when someone agrees with them. They've been conditioned to think any interaction is going to be adversarial.

If the wealthy can get you thinking about who deserves basic needs and who doesn't, they win. They don't care if you think wealthy people are the ones who don't deserve; establishing that it must be earned is the key. With that done, they can just keep expanding the definition of "undeserving."

I utterly loathe the "it's a distraction" people. The modern conservative movement is fully capable of harming multiple groups from multiple angles at once. Women, both trans and cis, will be harmed by this law. There is no distraction, just harm.

Those quick video chat apps with the perfect feature set is going to lead to teenagers unknowingly broadcasting their bedrooms 24/7. Someone will try to organize their receipts at tax time, hook it up to an open protocol and end up with their identity stolen.

I think the issues of security and scalability you wave off will be the real barriers. Recently crypto currencies did a speed run through "this is why we have banking regulations". AI coding agents are going to take us down a similar data protection and security path.

School funding is my go-to for political differences among friends. Should it be funded by each community or at the state level? I believe in higher level funding so that all kids receive similar education but I would be on a pub quiz team with someone who disagreed. No compromise on trans rights.

They never ask the question of the evidence of harms from withholding treatment. Despite the fact they found no evidence of harms from HRT. Wihtholding treatment from a population like this is not a neutral act, it is an intervention in and of itself. One that has no basis in medicine.
