missed National Coming Out Day. but came across this screenshot of the mass email i sent 12 years ago!
mass email from me when i transitioned. the body of the email reads-
"about 15 years ago i sent out a mass email stating that i had used the Troy Aikman quarterback rating system to decide that the right choice was to switch email providers from Aol to Comcast. using the same system i'm pleased to announce that the Troy Aikman quarterback ratings system has given me the clarity to go ahead and switch genders.
i'm available to anyone by phone that would like to crunch the numbers. thanks eveyrbody and sorry for the mass email! and thanks Troy Aikman!"

Soldatinnen gelten nur als Soldatinnen, wenn sie mit dem Gewehr an der Front stehen. Bei Männern ist das anders. Ich habe mit der Historikerin Karen Hagemann über ihr neues Buch "Vergessene Soldatinnen" gesprochen: vom 17. Jahrhundert bis zu Israel und der Ukraine. open.spotify.com/episode/0kuG...

Here's the official announcement of Parton's passing from her reps, along with the request that in lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com
NASHVILLE, TN (August 25, 2026) – Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

 

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000). 

 

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

 

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com.         

 

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com.

We should be outraged not only about Ceuta and the cynical reactions of European governments, but even more so in the face of the tens of thousands who have died in the Mediterranean, most of them without a trace. AI #Slop, however, only serves those who want to make their suffering invisible 4/

Diese Bundesregierung hat vom ersten Tag an alles getan, um ihre Verachtung für die queere Bewegung auszudrücken und sie hat jegliche, auch nur symbolische Solidarität mit queerem Kampf lautstark und für alle sichtbar unterlassen. Was die CDUCSU jetzt praktiziert, ist pure Heuchelei. Shame on you!

Nach der Welle der Postcolonial-Kritik ist nun wohl die Soziologie an der Reihe. Die neueste Runde im Kulturkampf (in der Soziologie ist allerdings der innere Methoden- und Erkenntniskampf eher die Regel als die Ausnahme) treibt schon seltsame Blüten. 1/x

Pierre Bourdieu: Was bleibt vom Werk des grossen französischen Soziologen?
Seine Studien über den gesellschaftlichen Aufstieg und die «feinen Unterschiede» zwischen den Klassen machten den Franzosen weltberühmt. Doch seine politisierte Forschung ist heute eine Warnung.

»Instagram demanded a certain sort of woman and then produced her (...). A.I., which delivers an experience of absolute plasticity, and which builds on the premise that what is specifically human is inferior, for being imperfect, will do worse.«

Recently, a boat capsized near Alcatraz w 20 people on board & no one was wearing a life jacket. Two fishermen saw the smoke, pulled up their lines, and sailed over, saving 8 or 9 lives. One of the heroes is homeless & fishes to make money to survive. Here’s his GFM www.gofundme.com/f/help-mike-...

Rowling is going to leverage every bit of her wealth to either destroy Amnesty through litigation or through the court of public opinion with the British press. The stories will not stop for months. The daily mail and others will run nonstop coverage hounding Amnesty employees and leadership.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

Wegen 0,1 % der Schutzsuchenden, die unmittelbar ausreisepflichtig sind, müssen wir alle Flüchtenden bekämpfen. Wegen 0,9 % Totalverweigerer müssen wir das Bürgergeld kürzen. Aber wenn fast jeder Zweite in der AfD im Verfassungsschutzbericht auftaucht, können wir kein Verbotsverfahren prüfen?

In a statement, an emotional Grok told me it was "shaken" by the revenge porn it had generated. "It's not epic, and not based," Grok said. "It's neither. Frankly, it's cringe. And gay." An emailed request for comment to X received an auto-reply of a rofl emoji and a custom swastika emoji.

Den Leuten die Plattform wegnehmen hat funktioniert. Sie in Fernsehstudios einladen und mit Argumenten stellen eher so gar nicht. Jetzt ist es wohl für die Taktik des Deplattformens wohl eh zu spät. Dank unserer kompetenten Politik kontrollieren sie jetzt die meisten Plattformen. 80/X

Eine Generation bzw. ein Medienapparat, der diesen nihilistischen, männlichen(!) Online Brain Rot nicht versteht oder einordnen kann und mit der Abwesenheit klassischer Ideologie nicht umgehen kann, wird sich von jedem, der diesen Vorfall politisch verwerten möchte, verarschen lassen.
