Online poisoning has made everything and anything bad into Godwin's law imo. Same as the whole "west elm Caleb" thing from a few years ago. All things are one game of Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon away from "they're dangerous", which necessitates punishment.
The way people have started to speak about infidelity as a crime akin to physical or sexual abuse is wild. You can’t send the whole of France to jail.

THIS. Did you know sickle cell is curable, now? FULLY curable.
If you're feeling down or despairing about what FEELS like technology/advancement/science "standing still" or being fully malicious, I have great news: You're not paying attention to actual science. Just tech industry marketing.

meanwhile.... medicine has taken INSANE leaps and bounds in the last 2 years.
we're out here curing HIV and leukemia and creating 100% efficacy vaccines against all sorts of cancers, and now this??
between this and renewable energy outstripping fossil fuels in efficiency, the future is bright

A team of US scientists just cured Alzheimer’s in mice — and there is now hope that the disease can be reversed in humans.

It's kinda funny how every third political post on has some variation of "oh so you think there's going to be elections how cute" in the replies while the daily news is of Republicans getting boatraced in elections, manufacturing the reality you desire to be outraged about isn't just a rw phenomenon

The last few days did not move the main story forward AT ALL. It's just a guy eating little treats and doing nothing. And so many plot holes. He says, "no more little treats," and then he's eating another little treat in literally the next scene.

Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

The running theme between the Epstein story, banning trans healthcare for minors, religious homeschooling and the complaints about adult children estranging themselves is a fundamental American belief that children are property with no rights of their own
America is a culture of child abuse. Ask any survivor - we find one another, we form networks and communities.
The true scale of it would stagger and sicken you, and so it is buried, it is swept under the rug, it is denied and the survivors are silenced by whatever means are necessary.

Finally finished Monster, and man, I dunno what everyone else was saying, I am way into the ambiguous ending. It doesn't matter who Johan is after the events of the story -- he could be anyone. The lack of answers is more important than closure.

I think about this, also in terms of vaccines, and really struggle with how you have a free society that doesn’t fall into this trap in one way or another. solved problems become invisible and the solutions become the source of conspiracy theories.
This seems logical but Dems solved* the whole problem of old-age health care costs in the mid-1960s and then they lost five of the next six presidential elections because by 1968 it was a solved problem and no one cared about it.
*Yes oversimplifying here and the rest of course.

it's actually kinda funny in a way to get to the finish line of curing cancer and having the government go eh you know what. never mind
A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

I'm going to keep hollering that "women's safety" is a right wing talking point until people start listening to me. It's a thought terminating cliche based on treating them as belongings. They don't care about sex crimes.
But what if the "thing of their own" is a friendship with a girl in Guides who happens to be trans?
I honestly think Rowling has lost touch with how real people's lives actually work.
And, also, Rowling's movement is gearing up to get girls kicked out of Scouts, so this "answer" is horseshit.

a follower of mine said it a while ago but people like this legitimately seem to think child porn is illegal because "it's gross" or "pedophiles like it," not because it does tangible and obvious harm to children who cannot consent. You can't make things illegal off of "ew", that's the Hays Code.
Many wonder why games journalists really struggle to cover adult games censorship
I think this games journalist posting on ResetEra about Horses really gives a pretty unprecedented look into how games journalists think about these things, including the incorrect read on the censorship angle
