As anyone in publishing will tell you, women do not resist reading books by men, but men will often dismiss books by women. This is not a publishing problem or a failure to target men. It's a misogyny problem.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

I've never understood why prostitution is illegal, since most of the ugly and dangerous things related to it are caused by that illegality. I finally get it. Making it legal would create oversight, interfering with trafficking and pedophile rings--things wealthy men love.

The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

Every time some pundit claims that no one would work if their basic needs were met, I think about how, after he retired, my dad would just show up at estate sales with his truck and offer to help folks take their furniture home because he just wanted to keep busy and be around people.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

Read this thread & also the NYT story (which will, be warned, make you physically sick and very distressed indeed, so keep that in mind). The campus police DID NOT TELL THE PROSECUTOR all that Jane Doe said. The campus police *omitted* her most important statements about what those men did to her.

If the baseline argument is young men are just unevolved gorillas, which is what the defense of those men boils down to, why aren't more men offended at being likened to animals. You're cool with that? You're SELF LABELING with that? Okay. Why are unevolved gorillas in charge and not in zoos.

Last month, I had an industrial A/C unit installed, because the summers have been getting brutal enough that I wasn't sleeping and the cats were suffering. It is also a heater. I have just turned it on for the first time, and I don't think I HAVE this many cats. Where are they coming from?

Good job, California. 15 states to go. No child should marry. A child who marries isn’t emancipated, her (and it’s usually a girl) new spouse becomes her guardian. If he abuses her, she cannot go to a domestic violence shelter. She cannot initiate a divorce. She can’t have her own money.

California bans child marriage, even with parental permission

Supporters hail ban on child marriage and companion bill to address forced marriages as “most comprehensive framework” in the U.S.

It's time for the public to learn that public services cannot run on the concept of doing more with less. When there are large cuts to services that rely on public monies, people should feel the results. Libraries, universities, etc. need to stop trying to lessen the visibility of funding cuts.
