It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The fact that Deepseek R1 was released three days /before/ Stargate means these guys stood in front of Trump and said they needed half a trillion dollars while they knew R1 was open source and trained for $5M. Beautiful.

TLDR: There is nothing enforceable for the immediate future. It will take months or years to implement this via rulemaking or bureaucratic changes which are then subject to legal challenge. While it's worrying, there's no immediate change yet for most trans people. Do not comply in advance.

I always said “this is the best year so far in human history to get cancer” and John retorted, “yeah, but next year would have been better.” Truly ridiculous how right he was…

When a place does a series of false alarms during an emergency, you are training people not to take these alarms seriously. I cannot think of a single thing more dangerous right now (I mean mean literally, I have not been sleeping)

just blurted out in class "yes, you have to cite where you got your info. in a world in which lying loudly is the only thing that seems to get rewarded, citing your sources is an act of resistance" and folks, I really believe that.

More to say on burnout and I'm probably going to boost it a few times because folks need to hear it: Burnout is a form of brain damage. It happens when stress conditions persist until they damage our brains. It's an injury that needs to heal, not a weakness that needs to be pushed through.

I’ve been rewatching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (because obviously), and I just finished Season 3, Episodes 11/12 “Past Tense, Part 1 & 2”. I gotta tell ya, watching that in 2024, especially post-election 2024, reallllly hits different.

I’ve thought often about how conservatives seem drawn to people whose personal appearances and affects are, to the rest of us, repellent. Look at and listen to this guy. Or Trump. Or all the women who look like they’re made entirety of polystyrene. They like odious people in all senses of the word.
