If you want to learn about Wendy Carlos, maybe explore the wealth of resources on her website, including this list of good interviews, instead of a piece she has since disavowed over and over again

transness is a gift. i need every trans woman to understand that by nature of their existence they have been blessed with the ability to pluck the strands of fate with their hands if they choose to. it is not always easy and it is not without hardship but every trans woman is capable of greatness.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

word is that multiple kidnappings were averted due to community action & patrols
if you live anywhere in LA and can devote a couple of hours in your week to patrol and rapid response work, you can potentially save your neighbors from being abducted by Steven Miller's soldiers

I finally got to Act II in BG3. I tried exploring every single area in act 1 and ended up reaching 7th level.
Then I was like "oh hey it's Dammon again nice to see------oh. oh no. ohhhh no."

If the Democrats were a real party and not a bunch of spineless career politician cowards these 8 senators would be ejected tomorrow morning.
EIGHT Senate Democrats have voted to advance the funding measure so far after the deal was reached:
Cortez Masto
Durbin
Fetterman
Hassan
Kaine
King
Rosen
Shaheen
If the existing 52 Republicans hold, that's 60 — enough to advance this agreement. Final vote still to come.

when it comes to art, my advice is to never assume “this has never been done before”.
I take the approach that it’s all been done before, and that it’s about how the artist does it with their own sensibilities and history and what we can learn from it, presented that way.

Tip for frustrated gamers: pretty okay deals on PS5 on OfferUp. Unfortunately it’s presumably because people can’t afford to keep them, at least in San Diego. Switch 2 may not be worth the bother yet. Series X is priced to move but I’m not sure I’d buy it even at a good price tbh

This is going to be a sourdough starter believe it or not lmao, but the brewer in me isn’t completely gone.
But I’m also doing this to make sure the yeast is alive still, I’ve missed working with Espe kveik. Also because kveiks thrive on underpitching, and that bag cost $11 lmao

People gave a record amount of money to multiple organizations for the people of Gaza and all this money just sat there for the past 2 years because Israel blocked it. I hope this money gets distributed quickly now so that the people of Gaza don't have to beg anymore

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Everyone who was involved in building these life-destroying products and forcing them on vulnerable people has shown that their judgement is horribly compromised. They should be immediately removed from power and spend as much time as is necessary to make amends for the harms they caused
1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad
2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices.
