It’s been darkly amusing watching people deal with the fact that Trump actually had not imposed a permanent change to our culture and politics that would allow them to be their worst selves without friction. Some are doubling down, hence the neighborhood bar fascination, and others are pivoting hard

There was a time when social media was actively useful to me as a writer because I could think out loud and yes we might disagree but aside from batshit right wingers, it was pretty chill But now people are wound up and feeling powerless and taking that out on each other

One reason to learn about things outside your major is so that you have something to talk about with people at parties and on dates. No amount of money will make up for you being a crushing bore. History majors learn this early but I guess it takes other people longer.

To me, this story is about bullying, and specifically a type of bullying where a powerless marginalized person attacks another powerless marginalized person. And I think this happens a lot in certain circles, because it’s too overwhelming to take on the real systems, so bullies attack allies instead

One of the reasons I think this went viral even in queer circles is because everyone has seen this dynamic play out in some form in our spaces. We need a better way to root out toxic people utilizing the language of liberation in narcissistic and sociopathic ways to dominate spaces.

Political winds do not only flow from voters to politicians, they go in reverse as well. Democrats running ads like these signal to the general public and their voter base that this issue now has support by both parties, and that hating trans people is publicly acceptable. They do harm to us.

I sometimes get pushback for explaining that Christian Nationalists want the apocalypse, actually, so it's very bad that they are in charge. But beyond CNs, it is just a problem that the two largest religions on Earth understand life as merely a trial run for the afterlife.

China hasn't got military assets in the region to turn Gulf States into the clients they were for the US. Neither does the EU/UK or India. We need go get used to the possibility of a world where external powers can no longer be decisive arbiters outside of their core area in the way the US once was

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

When Democrats attempt to triangulate on trans rights, it's my sense that many liberals and people in politics don't understand why many trans people are so upset. I wrote about the differences between then and now, what trans people have lost, and what we still stand to lose

And don't think you don't have power, either. Recent surveys show trans people may be as high as 2% of the population, and up to 5% if you include gender-expansive categories, and we have family members and allies. Many elections are decided by a single percentage point. We have power here.

This. No conservative who hates trans people will vote for a Dem. No moderate on the fence will change their vote because of trans issues. Especially in this political climate. If you can’t be pro-trans rights, you can at least shut up about them. It’s the economy stupid.

Talarico is betting that: 1. Conservative voter will notice this one act of moderation and support him, rather than interpret his concession as evidence that Paxton is right; 2. Activists will still continue volunteering and supporters of trans rights will turn out in the numbers Talarico needs.

I've seen a lot of "saying AI is useless is hyperbolic" but the flipside hyperbole is denying that AI still has serious deficiencies. Bullshitting is inherent to the ways LLMs work. Whatever the form—erroneous facts, mangled data, fake cites, or the plagiarism here—it's impossible to fully mitigate.

Being skeptical or anti AI is a valid position but continuing to ignore the increasing capabilities of this tech is making people detached from reality. There's absolutely real danger here because these frontier labs are acting recklessly without any sort of safety driving their decisions.
