Discord to enforce face scans to access full content, harming children and adults alike

We cannot keep switching platforms every few years when corpos decide that they don't need to respect their users.

I appreciate the sentiment, but it fails to realize that most parents would rather ignore the causes of their children's depression if addressing it means challenging their worldview. This is why so many parents are fine with their kids being suicidal if the alternative is that they are out as trans
As a comparison - there are VERY few suicide deaths in children. 10-20 for kids under 10, and ~500 for those 10-14. It would be CRUEL to say that last-line treatments for depression (ECT, TMS, ketamine, etc) shouldn't be given to those kids most in need of them.

RIP Discord, death by CEO 2/9/26
Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month - all accounts set to "teen-appropriate experience" by default www.theverge.com/tech/875309/...

"Those rules allow transgender men who are not taking testosterone or who meet specified requirements to compete in women’s events."

This is not a feel-good story.

In ~20 yrs my views moved from hard core conservative all the way to here.

The people who said ITYS, “you’re not doing it right” and “you’re an asshole” were sand in the bearings.

The folks who said “That’s the spirit.”, “Here, let me help”, “read this” and “welcome” were accelerants.

NEW: It’s difficult to account for the abuses trans immigrants face in ICE custody after Trump destroyed safeguards, oversight agencies, and data about detainees.

But 3 trans migrants told me what it’s really like: Medical neglect. Solitary confinement. Harassment. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
ICE Is Treating Trans Immigrants With A New Level Of Cruelty
A HuffPost investigation found how the Trump administration systematically destroyed safeguards for detainees, subjecting them to abuse and neglect.

It is a name I came up with myself (I think) but I'm sure I'm far from the first person to utter such a thing.

It's a pretty natural conclusion to come to once you start reading trans history ☺️
