the development of Luigi Mangione's case is so funny. the cops began interrogating him before even arresting him, before reading his Miranda Rights, and they searched his backpack without a warrant while doing so. which means a ton of evidence could potentially be tossed

I also hope that those colleagues, especially the Europeans, are willing to have more conversations about how travel across policed borders and through nation states has always been risky and scary for folks with non-dominant identities.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen something so simultaneously absurd and disturbing: the House will vote
Monday on a bill that would punish Americans for participating in boycotts of Israel with fines of up to $1 MILLION or prison terms up to TWENTY YEARS.

What is the lifespan of software? What if you make software that's silly and full of whimsy? Will people remember it? Anyway, here's a video someone recently posted of “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan performed through the composer feature in Mario Paint, a game released on Super Nintendo in 1992

In the past ~day the administration
- arrested a judge for not allowing ICE into her chambers without a warrant
- deported a 2-year-old citizen
- threatened scientific publications for not confirming to their ideology
- launched a partisan investigation into their opposition's fundraising

At least 2 people—29 and 44 yo—have died while detained at Krome ICE prison near Miami.

The facility is so overcrowded people are sleeping in the bathrooms: “Their faces are literally under the toilet.”

i have to confess i just love raw dough. cookie dough, bread dough, doesn’t matter. pie crust, any batter, you name it. if i could eat portions of it that matched the portions of the final baked product without making myself sick i’d do it

i genuinely don’t know what to do with my life after i’ll graduate

i would love to stay in academia but i don’t think i’m good enough for it, as i’m already years behind

struggling with mental health throughout my early years of uni and not being able to start T until 2024 certainly didn’t help

Today a terph tweeted
"These trans women. Do they ever do things like women actually do, run a home, cook, put the washer on, get the kids to school, visit relatives in care homes, budget the bills, clean the house, chauffeur kids about?"

It appears my husband, myself and our adult kids are women.

It doesn’t matter.

“Eradicating autism” is how they will justify institutionalizing, criminalizing, and exterminating anyone they label as autistic.

Whether they’re actually autistic, mentally ill, transgender, or just not behaving the “right way.”

Just like they’re doing with “immigrants.”
RFK Jr. wants to eradicate autistic people and also has no idea what an autistic person is

Now in the UK, any detained woman suspected of being trans will be strip-searched by a man.

I guarantee this will impact far more cisgender women than transgender women.

This is Rowling’s direct legacy: punishing any woman who isn’t feminine enough.

We #Actuallyautistic and other disabled folks deserve to be treated as inherently valuable and not some wretched tragedy against capitalism.
The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.

Looking forward to every mathematician who called for boycott of ICM2022 because of LGBT people being unsafe in Russia now coherently calling for boycott of ICM2026.
Trans academics like myself and another person mentioned in the article can't travel to the US at all because our gender markers have been corrected and the US policy right now is to consider that "fraud" and permanently ban us from entry.

This is so fucked up.
