I'm coining a piece of AI safety terminology that I'd like to refer to as the Bond Villain problem. As a field, AI safety heavily leverages sci-fi pretty heavily, so I figure this should be fine.

Anytime I see a non-local give praise for Tillis expressing slight disapproval at Trump's actions, I get so mad because deep down this man is, and always will be, a coward.

Just want to highlight re the importance of Dems pursuing things like impeachment. People want electeds who will fight for them--even in battles they know they're likely to lose. Republicans fight for everything and will risk losing because a hard fight is ammo for next time.

In my view, they are more responsible for what happens than Trump himself. He is one demented man who cannot help himself. They know better and are too cowardly to act.

If you are cis, if you are a parent of cis kids, I would ask you to directly engage this issue. Not just quietly or indirectly. Say out loud that you support kids’ right to be themselves. Read up a little and explain something to your uncle or your mom. Make sure your reps know how you feel.
