I don’t care where you started out on the political spectrum If your kid comes out as trans & you don’t become a rainbow-clad, parade-cheering ally & rock-solid supportive girl/boy/enby dad/mom? You were never a parent at all You were a doll collector furious they didn’t stay in their packaging.

Dear indie bookstores: Please stop creating your logos (& posts & graphics &c.) with genAI. Those tools are built on the stolen work of the authors & illustrators you're supposed to be supporting & promoting. It's like someone using you for recommendations & buying from Amazon, only worse. 💜Me

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

When people say they’re anti-AI, they’re clearly talking about generative AI in the arts and LLM slop that C-Suite jackoffs want to use to replace them. You know this. I know this. Everyone knows this. So the “then don’t use spellcheck if you hate AI” talking point is disingenuous horseshit.

The thing people need to understand about the Massachusetts Senate race is that it's less about people loving Ed Markey (although he's a good progressive) and more about people absolutely hating Seth Moulton and not wanting him anywhere near a U.S. Senate seat.

It's bad journalism to accept the framing that these organizations care about protecting women's sports when they're just blatantly anti-trans hate groups. Maybe the writer could have talked to a single trans person for this story?
XX-XY Athletics, which bills itself as a brand “here to protect women’s sports and spaces,” was founded by former gymnast and former Levi Strauss chief marketing officer Jennifer Sey. XX-XY has also been part of rallies around WNBA games this season in "Support of Sophie Cunningham.”

You played the recorder in part to strengthen your fine motor skills and in part to introduce you to basic music theory concepts like rhythm, the C-major scale, and reading basic music notes. Your teachers wanted to make elementary music education available to all, not just the rich.
