If your glance showed the maiden, you will hear the word "young" better through a noisy channel than the word "old."

If your glance showed the crone, the opposite.

You can literally see this in fMRI scans.

the “anti-fascist popular front” is big enough to include actual fascists (MTG) but not the most vulnerable targets of fascism (trans people, migrants), because they’re not actually trying to construct an anti-fascist popular front.

They are simply the mirror image of Hamas/Al Qaeda/Third Reich; ALL are operating on the same exact identitarian logic of racial purity, hyper nationalism, and violent xenophobia. The idea that ANYONE has a "right" to ANYWHERE is setting up a perilous pathway towards fascism.

I've been thinking about Matt Furie a lot during this period of political frog realignment, so I made this comic dedicated to him.

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.

And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.

No more.

The fact that prominent Black and trans users are REGULARLY hounded off the site or arbitrarily blocked for things that perhaps may look like ToS violations if you squint at them is a majorly toxic problem and devalues this website.

Rodney Taylor still needs our help!

He’s still locked in an ICE camp.

He’s still going without his new prosthetic legs.

He’s still facing deportation to Liberia.

He’s still having necessary disability accommodations ignored.

Please keep sharing his story. Public pressure works!
Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE
Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

the ease with which cis people, including my colleagues in media, have bought and repeated anti-trans talking points has concerned the hell out of those of us paying attention.

I hope that when RFK Jr dies someday, someone has been hired and trained to capture whatever crawls out of the body, so that it doesn't find a new host

Gen Z doesn't Understand Filesystems. It's not their fault.

Apple's early abstraction of mobile data storage has caused...confusion to say the least.

But what does the *real* iOS filesystem look like?

As a researcher myself; it's kind of insanely complicated:

It's impossible to forgive. Palestinians died. Turn out was suppressed. Would that have made all the difference? Maybe not. But it's impossible to make the argument that a turnaround ont hat foreign policy wouldn't have recaptured some of that youth vote, who saw a genocide live streamed on TikTok.

the thing about @schumer.senate.gov moving the goalposts about how much defiance of the courts is enough for him to care is that each time we get to ask things like:

is the DOJ not “tolerating” judges enough for you, Chuck?

I am sick of a society that doesn’t fully and unequivocally denounce men who abuse women regardless of party.

You simply can’t say you’re for kitchen table issues when women sit at that table- and you’re ignoring abuse.

So disappointing
