Today marks 28 years since Matthew Shepard died, beaten to death for daring to be out in 1998. In 2021, his mother Judy testified for my bill to ban the anti-LGBTQ panic defense here in Virginia so people kill or assault us for simply existing. I’m grateful for her work and the advocates who helped.

§ 18.2-37.1. Certain matters not to constitute defenses.

A. Another person's actual or perceived sex, gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation is not in and of itself, or together with an oral solicitation, a defense to any charge of capital murder, murder in the first degree, murder in the second degree, or voluntary manslaughter and is not in and of itself, or together with an oral solicitation, provocation negating or excluding malice as an element of murder.

B. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent a defendant from exercising his constitutionally protected rights, including his right to call for evidence in his favor that is relevant and otherwise admissible in a criminal prosecution.

§ 18.2-57.5. Certain matters not to constitute defenses.

A. Another person's actual or perceived sex, gender, gender identity, or sexual orientation is not in and of itself, or together with an oral solicitation, a defense to any charge brought under this article.

B. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent a defendant from exercising his constitutionally protected rights, including his right to call for evidence in his favor that is relevant and otherwise admissible in a criminal prosecution.

2. That the provisions of this act may result in a net increase in periods of imprisonment or commitment. Pursuant to § 30-19.1:4 of the Code of Virginia, the estimated amount of the necessary appropriation cannot be determined for periods of imprisonment in state adult correctional facilities; therefore, Chapter 1289 of the Acts of Assembly of 2020 requires the Virginia Criminal Sentencing Commission to assign a minimum fiscal impact of $50,000. Pursuant to § 30-19.1:4 of the Code of Virginia, the estimated amount of the necessary appropriation cannot be determined for periods of commitment to the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice.

The other thing with these bots being temporarily down? It mirrors real life in the sense people don’t want to engage with the nonsense they programmed the bots to say /argue about. We shun them irl so they made a way to force themselves into our spaces..

Since so many of you seem to think “raises serious questions” is a proportionate and sufficient response, Amy, let me raise some of my own: Which questions, specifically? Who is going to ask them? Who is obligated to answer them? What investigative authority will be used to obtain those answers?

Oracle, 29th largest company in the world, led by Larry Ellison, books looking bad, bet huge on AI, tens of billions in negative cash flow, and if the company goes down, there’s a good chance it takes the AI bubble and Skydance down with it.

an interesting and, imo, important read. what does capitalism begin to consume (and/or accelerate its existing consumption of) as it exhausts material avenues for expansion? how do we (as workers, as storytellers) push back?
A screenshot of a section of the article reading: "So when you drink a few Monsters or Red Bulls, you’re still getting physically and mentally fatigued; your brain just doesn’t know it yet. It’s as if, instead of using an oven mitt, you just shot your hand full of Novocaine before grabbing a hot pan. The harm is still there. And in economic terms, this means that every time you work a long shift with chemical assistance, you’re not just selling your working hours to the boss. You’re also degrading the quality of life you’ll experience during your non-working hours, because that’s when the fatigue catches up to you, and you feel, to use the scientific term, like dogshit." The last one and a half sentences are highlighted.

If this were a brand new Film released today I think it’d do phenomenal business, and it did great business back in the mid-90’s with a box office haul of nearly $200million. STARGATE (1994) KURT RUSSELL and JAMES SPADER starred, ROLAND EMMERICH helmed.

Accidentally kicked the seat in front of me. And it happened.

(picture from the POV of sitting in a window seat on a train. a cat has turned its head to glare at you from the seat in front. its facial expression is pure annoyance and disappointment in you.)
