I'm nerdy, into swordfighting (I play Belegarth) , and I do actual-play content with @streamingrainbow. I also have a (finished) AP Eldritch Horror podcast called Lantern Cove. Find it wherever you get your podcasts! Oh, and I'm a trans lesbian.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Politicizing Transgender Athletes Is Dangerous. Lia Smith Deserved Better.

1. A new guide has been released by some of the top names in Democratic politics encouraging Dems to act more like Republicans on "identity and cultural issues."
It becomes clear exactly what that means: queer and trans people.
I argue against it in my latest.

What I went through as a closeted trans child and teen is not something anyone should have to go through. To be clear, this law will kill people. It will kill children. And it will torture those trans children it does not kill.
1. This morning, a flurry of movement in federal rulemaking signals Trump's intent to ban transgender youth care nationwide.
If these rules go into effect, the administration may be successful in doing so.

When I was younger I had a much more nuanced take on morality, but the experience of this world has led to some pretty simplistic ideas, such as: Right wing politics are based on oppression, oppression is evil, the right wing is ideologically based in evil, right wing politicians are doing evil.

I like this take.
So here’s the thing about the common conception of Dune and the butlerian jihad.
The danger has never been AI “going rogue” or “gaining sentience”. It’s just strings of linear algebra.
The danger is in people surrendering their ability to think to a machine.
