Yes, privatizing public buildings definitely saves the city money, and in return we get... pickleball, and lose flea markets, roller derby, martial arts tournaments, and everything else that the Pipkin was used for Classic Memphis

It would appear the fools at Optum Specialty have sent my Apretude prescription to *my house,* which is pretty wild given the fact that while I *can* give myself that injection, I'm not supposed to So I'm going to have to run this to my doctor's office

I, broadly speaking, like Rep. Balint. However, this is not a winning argument. Let's consider the anti-trans Dems. Either they: - Are liars who will say anything to get elected - Believe what they say If the former, how can they be trusted? If the latter, why would they vote with other Dems?

While this is technically true, it's also spin The increase in base load usage caused by Musk has forced MLGW to buy on the spot market more, which results in a higher fuel cost adjustment. Technically your rate wasn't "hiked" -- you just used more and each unit cost more And so you got screwed

The thing about Memphis politics is that it's simultaneously more conspiratorial and inept that you'd expect It's basically a club of wealthy people and their friends co-opting NGO leaders and teachers to perform very short-sighted grifts

Seriously, the Skirt. Goes. Spinny. Twirling in our spinny skirts and dresses is the absolute height of joy There will be days the path is hard, but you will experience the brightest days and highest joys, beyond anything you believe is possible And love, in a way you have never known

I don't know what's got people in a "mulch other trans siblings" mood these last few days but seriously, you can disagree with someone's take without trying to destroy them You can hold those with a platform accountable without sending them horrific DMs or using the slurs of the fascists.

I -- also transfemme, also a survivor of SA -- may not feel the same way as Corinne does on this topic (I posted earlier about my disagreements with the article), but I 100% agree that putting her on lists like this is a damn ugly thing to do to a survivor

This would be a positive move and a moderation standard -- given that moderation at scale is impossible -- that would be as close to fully accepted as you can get Unless, of course, you're Aaron, who is about as competent at running T&S as Bari Weiss is at running a news org

So I don't know how I got @mu.social to do this in the Android app, but in the Discover feed it grabs from Bsky after account transfer, it shows little tags that say from where the feed pulled each post and that's very cool, actually Definitely leave their feature in, mu devs, plz

🦇 Stop misusing the concept of restorative justice. The VICTIM is the one who's supposed to be restored. Not the RAPIST. You can't rehab a rapist if there hasn't first been both justice and restoration for the victim. It is almost impossible to get justice so rehab is impossible too.

why do you have more empathy for a man that raped a woman ten years ago than for the victims that can read your posts about how it’s ok because he’s really sorry.

the attempted doxxing may have named the wrong woman, but naming the right one was never the goal. the goal was and will always be painting a target on a woman to distract from the 7 known rapists and their more than 50 accomplices

"How did you get into TTRPGs?" The only quasi-friend I had at the time invited me to play GURPS Supers because his group needed another player Though given how much that group bullied me and that "friend" vanished after middle school, I suspect he just wanted someone to kick around

Anyway back to my regularly scheduled programming Such as me last night, awake for 19 hours, showing the civilized way to wait on a delayed flight, with a Manhattan I'd have gone with a martini but let's be honest, a martini is just the classiest way for me to drink pure ethanol

Related to my last thread, look, I try not to blast my trans siblings for bad takes. I know some folks with some very bad takes but they don't have a megaphone But if you have a platform, you have power, and power must be held to account And that I should note includes me, with my small platform

I'm not going to qrp or link to the Epilogue Gaming article where a fellow trans person argues essentially "well, I mean, we don't know what the survivor wanted and Geller has done such good work and look at his apology, he's a good boy now, see?" because I don't want to amplify her traffic 🧵

Some of the emergent behaviors of transformer models built on huge corpora are surprising and intriguing, and some are expected by LTWM and connectionism And practically, the models do useful things ("agentic-ready" tasks) But the costs to humans are too high, especially for frontier models!

For road trips, physical maps, written directions, and prior research, or a AAA TripTik For local, like a cabbie, you learned the Knowledge of your city, and to get somewhere new, you'd get verbal directions from someone who knew the route Also did you know we once paid per minute for phone calls?

Imagine, if you will, that you've been going through life carrying 50 lb weights on your arms, legs, and neck And suddenly you were free of them -- wouldn't you be terribly strong, more powerful than you were? The weights are your dysphoria. Transition, cast them off, and assume your true power!

You know it's a damn good thing I have a high paying job because otherwise I wouldn't be able to front Optum Pharmacy $1300 every 2 months for Apretude, then have to yell at them to get a refund that they swear I should never been charged in the first place "Medically billed" prescriptions are evil
