Really irritating how every other block list I spot-checked had some people who didn't seem to belong on there - so I am making my own list EXCLUSIVELY for transphobic troll accounts, verified by a professional content moderator (me) (tho I'm not getting paid for this)

Did you know you can read over 300 stories about trans dudes in gay situations? Sometimes horny and sometimes just romantic? Well, you can and you should! This collection is a treasure trove of stuff and too many stories here are neglected.

Go find something new to love!

new paper by Sean Westwood:

With current technology, it is impossible to tell whether survey respondents are real or bots. Among other things, makes it easy for bad actors to manipulate outcomes. No good news here for the future of online-based survey research

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

This looks neat!
In between bouts of Powerwash Simulator I’ve been playing Keeper, a gorgeous, dialogue-free adventure where you play as a newly sentient lighthouse. Yes, really.

As a Black American feminist, I don’t see it that way. I see those types as being aware enough to see a sinking ship and trying to reach out for a life preserver. But I don’t trust what she says, I trust what she does. She still wants to be a Republican and believes in those ideals 🤷🏾‍♀️
I'd be really curious if someone better versed in feminist theory wrote about what's happening on the right. Because between Greene, Mace, and Bobert, we've got this bloc forming of women who seem tired of serving a patriarchy of sex criminals. And their rhetoric is starting to lean that direction.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is -- a traitor is an American that serves foreign countries."

Comparing this to how he treated the Ukrainian president makes me sick
In normaler times, this is front page, above the fold, all caps behavior by an American president
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

please, fellow #artists!!

i feel so bad not reskeeting your beautiful work, but i also have a policy of only reskeeting images with #AltText, whenever possible.
Artists PLEASE I am begging you to use alt text on your art. I want to support you and RT your art but I'm not going to if it does have alt text, and there are so, so many people who feel the same

The pancakes were delicious 🥰
I've been surged

My beloved is getting my scrips... and then maybe making me pancakes. Because I haven't eaten in ~15 hours and I'm craving pancakes. And he's the best 🥰

Oh cool, indentured servitude. Legally recognised throughout the democratic world as a form of unfree labour aka slavery. Also literally how the people traffickers that this legislation is supposedly meant to stop imprison their victims.
Watching the Mahmood announcement and debate. Tory backbencher (Karen Bradley) suggests putting refugees into debt and making them repay during the rest of their lives. Mahmood says she’ll think about it.

It took ~a month to get insurance to clear it. It took until AUGUST for my cardiologist to clear it. And all the rest was waiting for the dentist to look at those two documents and approve them so I could schedule.

I only got it on the books like. Last week. After calling. Regularly. For MONTHS.
