PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY
There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

"The fights for trans rights and Palestinians are over and we lost" is something I'm seeing over and over from cis white progressives. And I'm seeing variations of this popping up about racial justice, marriage equality, and disability rights too.
Sorry, but fuck that.

I want to make it very clear when I advocate for asexual rep I am in no way calling for censorship, homophobia, transphobia, queer erasure, purity culture, or hatred of sex. I believe in sex education, marriage equality, bodily autonomy, and other human rights—and asexuality is part of that.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

the President, who is not running for election, still sends out fundraising emails on the daily. this guy does ads saying "we've reached the max we can spend, don't give us more money." remarkable stuff that I think resonates with people who yearn for change and justice
I am once again asking you to stop sending us money.
But we do need your time. ⏰

Flu and RSV vaccines remain business as usual this fall: if you’re eligible, you should be able to get them without issue. Vaccinations should start in September.
Covid-19 vaccines are another story. There will be three key developments this week 👇

Want a shitty experience? Go to your first escape room with a group of outgoing, experienced escape room people you don't know. You'll experience such joys as: Sensory overload, being ignored, having no idea what's going on, and told to move so they can work on a puzzle instead of including you.

Something I think about a lot:
One early use of AI in medicine was a system to detect rumours in photos. In tests, it scored really well. Then they tried in real patients, and it was useless. Why? Biopsy photos of tumours often include a ruler for scale. The AI had simply learned to detect rulers.
