I know this is being done with good intentions so I say it with all love: Dudes, when women are expressing fear and disappointment over a predator who was by all outward appearances safe and kind, that’s not the time to, how should I put this, humble-boast about how *you’re* one of the safe ones. ⬇️

Israel's horrific, in your face conduct, combined with the suppression of antizionist criticism by pro-Israel political and social elites, has created a kind of cognitive permission structure to deny that Jews face any oppression whatsoever.

I've really enjoyed the Gunmetal Olympus stories I've read, and the openness of the setting has allowed for a lot of authors to do really interesting things with it, across a bunch of genres. Getting all this for $20 is an absolute steal.

Observing public arguments between conservatives having an election panic and liberals trying to decide whether or not burying minorities is good has convinced me that "leftist infighting" is a complete meme and we actually agree with each other way more than other political tendencies tbh

The Needle (not Cross’s tbc) writing here is pure envy, wild speculation and misused stats. Again, that’s not exonerating per-say; I don’t have the specialized knowledge to judge the deeper claims, and the underlying statistical questions. But it’s very clear to me that neither does the Needle.

The authors don’t understand what a p-value is. While I don’t know the tools used specifically, I am almost certain that the error estimation is wildly wrong. l don’t really know or care if Erin Reed uses AI in writing, but it’s very obvious that this is just… not credible on its face.
Finally, most of these p-values are so large because we have a massive sample size available to work with. When you have something like 750,000 words and hundreds of articles, the p values for something that is actually a trend within such a large dataset gets astronomical. P-values are the probability that random chance or something unobserved could explain the hypothesis equally well as the tested explanation.
Every p value below indicates the odds of the same author writing in the same style and making such different groups of work. For example, the difference between pasted sentence or paragraph lengths at this sample size leads to such a p value.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Imagine looking at the media landscape—music, books, movies—and concluding that it would be better if it were all simply infinite reflections of yourself, if you never had to be exposed to another personality, another experience, another life. Just you, you, you. Sounds fucking horrifying.

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system

For me, the hardest thing about stories like the Cornell gang rape case isn’t reading the initial details—although that is hard. What’s even harder is when men online, especially the journalists and pundits, start trying to combat the feminist outrage by purposefully seeding doubt and victim-blaming

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

Seriously. Go watch Star Trek, you'll see plenty of shots where it looks like Kirk & Spock are cuddling or are about to kiss, because that's the only way to fit them both in frame.

I find it infuriating that nations who for decades have profited off the exploitation of immigrant labour, who have indeed engineered the conditions for that exploitation through making the countries of origin nigh unliveable, now dare to turn around and call migrants a drain. Absolutely maddening.

I'd argue that my baseline level of happiness has increased just from transitioning. Otherwise, yeah, all your other problems are still there. A lot of them are now easier to deal with! But you've still gotta actually do that, and you've gotta work on learning and growing, too.
