Definitely a worthwhile use of your news outlet.

That's a reasonable read, but I think it too readily accepts the framing of anti-DEI people. A bit (not exactly) like the NYT dutifully Rufo'ing themselves over university integrity. (Obviously not addressing this staffer's personal experience, just the rest of it.)

I'm not clear on what this article is suggesting other than just to give up and encourage racist capitalists to be themselves. Also, it implicitly accepts that all the white guys deserve their jobs, to which lol.

I don't know if it's genre, but 水乡 by 残雪 is a trip. Gideon the Ninth is shockingly readable for what I thought was YA romantasy. Ishiguro's The Unconsoled is divisive but I really liked it (genre status also unclear).

Lol, definitely expecting Angel to understand and relay the message correctly

How incredibly grim.

They don't care about children before birth either. It's about punitive enforcement of social roles.

I see, thanks. Basically giving people knobs to twiddle increases their investment?

Sorry, I think I missed something: OC just means...a character who isn't canonical, right?

Given what APs are about, I have no idea why they use systems that require much bookkeeping at all. Like if you're going to eject from D&D, why not something at least as light as Mörk Borg?

This is not what the article says. It's not even what the post says.

Who's "we"? Is it axiomatic that natives are more important? Is it possible that migration simply selects for people able and motivated to make the move?

I think that's CBS, yes? I also don't think fascism is a Jewish conspiracy.
