Dear cis people, Please, for the love of G-d, stop using the terms "biological male" and "biological female." They're scientifically meaningless. Sex is a bimodal cluster categorization. The brain is biological, no? There is no one factor that's universally determinative of sex and gender.

Billionaires must be targeted with tax policy and antitrust policy not because it helps everyone else (though it does) but because their political power must be limited so they can't wreck the world the way they're currently doing

Bad writers think the characters are toys moved around to serve the genre and plot. Good writers are autistic sex perverts and curmudgeons who use the characters to talk about Hamlet and whatever was on their mind that morning.

Putting aside the stupidity of his commentary on Star Trek, I guess I just assumed his work was political. His works are all about the importance of the scientific method and pulling together as a human race to do great, important things. We're in a political moment where those are clear faultlines!

it’s insane that a decade ago we all agreed that giving mass shooters the attention they desired was a bad thing but now because rightwingers will quite literally lie about the shooter every single time we all have to be acutely aware of the shooters intentions and ideology

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

You can't make me care about AI news. "Oh this happened. Oh now this happened" It's a financial scam that is teetering and you cannot make me care about the little details before it collapses and takes the economy with it

The entire conversation around the minimum wage is framed as a question of entitlements or “handouts” when the issue is really this: of the value produced by a worker per hour, how much should employers be prevented from stealing?

said it before, say it a million times if gAI were so transformationally useful, you would see small, scrappy teams climbing over each other to implement it as quickly as possible instead of being almost exclusively a tactic of megacorporations with established properties and public shareholders

A benefit I never see discussed of getting art commissioned from real people is that you can get them printed as vinyl stickers and put them on your car. No one can stop you! Avatars by @nedroid.com and @bransonreese.bsky.social, respectively.

DS9 scene. Rom is a Ferengi hero who has a large bald head and giant ears and lobes that sort of connect to make a unibrow and a ribbed pine cone looking nose. He's wearing a jacket that looks like those lick and stick backsplash tiles you can get at Lowe's. He's pictured here standing in a corridor, talking to someone and holding/reading a PADD. Closed caption reads, "Workers of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains."Alt in pic 1 Happy Labor Day

refusing to accept this isn’t just about “purity” or whatever, it’s about effective politics. someone who thinks it’s practical to cave on trans rights misunderstands how politics works, they don’t recognize that public opinion is forged by perseverance

Panel three Dr. Julian Bashir asks "Even if it will disrupt the economy?"
Panel four Garak with a smile replies "Especially if it will disrupt the economy!"

it is not about sports. it has never been about sports. it is about banning trans people from public life entirely AT BEST, and at worst, forcing them into situations that will endanger their lives. this is why we don't play along with the "just asking questions" sports bullshit
