can't decide if they are knowingly trying to reduce US influence abroad or if they're just so averse to academic language that they can't read between the lines of the program titles. are they confused that they don't see programs titled like "spies" & "bribes" & so on lol

a mistake a lot of people make when they go on a christmas adventure is learning the true meaning of christmas. if you don't learn it you get to go on another christmas adventure the next year, you basically just keep getting free christmas adventures as long as you don't learn anything.

A former nyt co colleague pubbed a very powerful account of deep anti-trans bias at the nyt this morn. She did so with great bravery and honesty. Please read for the inside story of how the nyt silences trans employees as it pursues its biased coverage. (Also, please note Carly’s content warnings)

A federal court has ruled that Florida can detransition inmates. Some trans inmates are having estrogen pulled, hair shorn, and put through state-run conversion therapy. This is the cruelty of abandoning incarcerated trans people. The latest from Mira Lazine. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Fighting a malignant millionaire CEO has brought me and my family on the verge of a very real bankruptcy. This is not a drill, I genuinely need your help. Please, take a look at my fundraiser and share it if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/help-disco...

Every podcast I don’t listen to is called “Achieving the Limit with Duff and Ween” and gets sold for 300 million dollars while every podcast I do listen to is called “The Movie Toilet” and begs me to buy a t shirt so they can eat food

You ever think about weird RPG characters must sound when they ask lore questions that everyone in the setting would already know or are kinda inappropriate to ask? In real life, it’d be like a stranger approaching you and saying things like “TELL ME MORE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE. WHAT IS FRANCE?”

the thing is, if an oblivion remake releases and fixes the levelling system (read: changes it in any way at all) I would actually consider that enough justification to play it. I like slop

the worst thing to ever happen to internet cat content is "hooman". so many great cat images/videos/posts get ruined by "hooman". when will this shit end?

a friendly reminder, that permission and copensation is my Intellectural Property, and if you put it on your web page, you are snatching babies out of my hungry mouthe

it's just amazing the number of replies I receive from people with what appears to be an almost mystical incomprehension of what it means to type at someone on the internet, like if I followed up by saying "knock knock" they might be like "oh hold on someone's at my door"

can we not do the "die hard is a Christmas movie" thing here please. "remember thing that wasn't entertaining or edifying on twitter but just a non-argument about which even the most bored person alive could not credibly be thought to actually care" can we not. for my Christmas present. please

interesting random off-site link!

Oh, you have 100k followers but only follow 500 people? Why don't you follow them all back? Why doesn't Taylor Swift listen to me sing? Why won't LeBron James watch me play basketball?

heck of a one-two punch here

If someone wants to transition that’s their business. Part of the reason I don’t like “dysphoria” as clinical-talk for “desire to transition” is that it lets people do this “Oh we sympathise with the terrible pain of transsexuèls but we must help them with conversion therapy” shit

Labour health secretary Wes Streeting has permanently banned puberty blockers for trans children. There is no evidence they cause harm, which is why they are still available for cis children.

Look I haven’t seen the video, maybe it rocks. But I find the idea of someone believing that the amazing atheist had an incredible legacy, that it was ruined because his weird sex tape was leaked, and that you should make a 55 minute video about this unimaginable, almost grotesque

For those who may have missed it, our article on why gatekeeping in trans healthcare simply isn’t supported by evidence will be available for free for a month! Thanks to the editor for the free open access: psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

AND WHO PRECISELY DID THE INURING OF US TO BLOODSHED TO BEGIN WITH,

Meanwhile the Atlantic published a whole thing about "decivilization" today: “The line between a normal, functioning society and catastrophic decivilization can be crossed with a single act of mayhem.” (they mean, of course, the CEO, not the genocide)

This is partly a history of queer politics in Sinn Féin, partly an analysis of what has gone wrong within party structures leading to this point and also a list of the various ways that I personally completely failed to effect change. How did Sinn Féin become so ambivalent to queer struggles?

Israel is invading Syria, bombing its cities, & annexing land to add to its illegal occupation of the Golan Heights. It is a state founded on & sustained by violent, opportunistic theft & it'll be one of the greatest stains of the 21st century that our governments are doing nothing to stop them.

gacha games are definitely the thing that as a critic i am the most rude online about, but i simply believe they should be regulated into non-existence, both a poison on the industry and also maybe its most honest form. i strongly recommend the GSSB episode on Addiction By Design to everyone:

Daniel Penny acquitted after literally killing someone on camera for being disruptive on the train the same day a person of interest in the shooting of a shitbag healthcare exec gets grabbed pretty succinctly sums up who in this country is allowed to kill and who they’re allowed to kill.

Had a dream about a Drake song where he groomed this girl but right when she turned 18 she left him and it contained the heartbroken line "But it was supposed to be Daddy City." I sat there for like 10 minutes after waking trying to remember if that was a real Drake song or not

capitalism is the world's most effective economic system everybody

im sorry to every dev who ever made a stealth game i didn't realise the ais in those were this realistic

Recently had to use a “ai event planning service” because my boss told me to and when I gave it all the (English) business information it wrote a summary in Spanish

phew now that assad is gone syria will finally have peace and stability, just like libya after gaddafi and iraq after saddam hussein,

the problem with takes like “jesse singal is just doing it for attention” is they massively underscore the fact that he is doing it bc he hates trans people

lmao what kind of wiley e coyote ass painted tunnel on a wall scheme is this

A really important reminder that ALL of these industries have hero narratives that they repeat to themselves ad nauseam to help them sleep at night. Gambling, insurance, payday lenders, prison tech, they each have their elaborate fantasy realities in which they are heroic.
