I try to stay behind a few layers of snark and insincerity on here because I'm not really a fan of being my true self online, but I need to be honest here: There's very few things I hate more than being the only person in my family with conflict resolution skills despite being the youngest child.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

An aside to all this, they’re using variable width fonts in these which means that a lot of strings can be determined by block width.

Look at Ken Starr’s email block, in some you can see the @ sticking below the bar, and a couple descenders past the @

Someone who cared could reverse engineer it.

causing poverty - a primary outcome of criminal law - does not support victims of sexual violence. Expanding police powers has never in the history of patriarchy reduced, halted, nor prevented sexual violence. Increasing inequality in fact strongly correlates with higher rates of violence.
"We need to do more to protect people who are victims of serious violent and sexual offences, but further demonising welfare recipients and using the social security system as a form of punishment is not the way." – @averyhoward.bsky.social

Here's the lie: it wasn't "innovation" that shifted trajectories

It was

- Massive deployments of wind (and solar) (contrary to Gates' wishes)

- Huge gov't subsidies to help that

- The climate movement aggressively defending those policies against people like Gates' friend Bjorn Lomborg

The welfare system is often used as a powerful surveillance tool for police and security agencies.

Where someone is evading arrest, especially longer-term—it's entirely possible cancelling welfare payments may make apprehending them more difficult. You are also *provoking* a known violent offender.
Did they think this through? Probably no.
But how are the cops going to track them when now they no reason to go near or access their bank account?

centrists will tell you to your face that we all need to abandon identity issues, and focus on kitchen table issues instead and yet when a leftist candidate runs a generational campaign based on kitchen table issues, it's the centrists weaponizing identity politics to smear the leftist.

There are a disturbing number of people who think like this. I've been seeing a rising number of commenters on my Hidden Gems roundup who are upset at being shown games they've never heard about, because if they haven't heard about it, it must be bad and thus it can't be a gem, so I must be lying.

Australia's tech industry group's chief left suddenly after 16 months in the job. I wrote for the Siz about how Tech Council of Australia under its new chair Atlassian cofounder Scott Farquhar has been pushing policies that critics suggest help global tech companies more than our own 👀
