I wrote about my experiences being sexually exploited as a child, and what we need to do to make sure AI doesn’t make that a reality for millions of children.

I hate getting my hair cut. I don’t know why. My barber is really nice and always does a good job, but like I just hate the process of getting it done. Hs anyone solved the issue of a million little hair prickles leftover on you after a haircut?

White men are 30% of the US and if they look around the room and see it’s less than 90% white men they think it’s affirmative action.
85% of CEOs are white men.
All but one US President has been a white man.
65% of all elected offices are held by white men.
Roughly 30% of the population is white men.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TOPIC EVEN???

Any lawyers out here?
Not a lawyer but I have to imagine it is violating some US law to fund things that are considered criminal in the US? If someone who knows the law could help, I would gladly file a legal argument against these pathetic and disgraceful ghouls

This is a wildly unethical study that would be illegal to conduct in the United States. Have you heard of the Tuskegee experiments (crimes against humanity)? This sounds like that.
CDC awards $1.6 million for new hepatitis B vaccine study in Guinea-Bissau. Although the award recipients aren't named, the grant seems tailored to Danish researchers whose work is championed by anti-vaxxers but challenged by mainstream scientists.

Re the Vanity Fair photos: Chiming in as an artist and someone who knows basic retouching: editing out that single forehead hair (Rubio’s photo) is EXTREMELY simple. Leaving it in is a choice.
None of this is an accident, and quite frankly it’s brilliantly done.

My favorite waterproof liquid eyeliner officially stopped being manufactured. I am currently in mourning (yes I am accepting flowers at this time), and I’m also asking advice from all the makeup ladies, theydies, and gentlemen. What’s your favorite *waterproof* liquid eyeliner with a *felt tip*??

When a white woman falsifies evidence and lies using the legal system to threaten, silence, and intimidate someone of color they have wronged, it's rather misogynistic to call it "petty high school BS."
It's not "high school." Its calculated, career-ending ABUSE.
It's also perjury. A felony.
