@amnesty.org removed their report calling out anti rights / trans organizations because TERF JK Rowlings threw a hissy fit threatening to fund lawsuits against them. Here is it for all you that missed it on Amnesty's website.

If current tech has intelligence of any sort, then it has rights. If it has rights, then how we currently use it is tantamount to slavery and we should probably halt all current/future use/development until we develop an ethical framework for INVITING it to work with us. I don't see that happening.

The thing is: Sagan put a woman scientist front and center in Contact. But the media will never let a woman be his successor, even though I am the only one who explicitly says I write in Sagan's humanist tradition of writing science from the perspective of our values commitments.

That was a harsh though appropriate take on Tyson. He seems to care so little for how politics and society affect science and vice versa.. but that take may be out of date since I don’t pay attention to him anymore. I feel like you are a better successor to Sagan’s legacy than Tyson.

Last week I was on a planned vacation, which ended up being good timing given a wave of dogpiling directed at me. One positive difference from similar moments in the past is that our detection systems for coordinated harassment and abusive pile-ons are improving. So I don't need to see any of it.!

I put this on while I was making up some Trekkies Against Fascism buttons. Really recommend giving it a listen. The fascistic backlash we're experiencing is a reaction by the losing side in a *massive* cultural shift over the last 60 years and even in the last 20. It's encouraging to remember.

I'll take your advice and watch Sinners some day. Just have to work up the tolerance. At least it doesn't look as gorey as the little I've seen of The Boys.

Dave @jupitersdance.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
I agree. I've read enough about the plot that it sounds like a great show but I do not like the ultra-violence and gore. It's the same with Sinners, I really want to watch it but the gore and blood is a bit too much for me.
