After the better part of a decade, I’m back on my fanfiction-writing bullshit!
“Invisible String” is based on "The Sisters of Dorley" by @badambulist.bsky.social. It's about a trans girl trying to transition, an ex-sponsor trying to help her, and the secrets they’re keeping from each other. 1/2

The Batman effect: A female researcher, appearing pregnant, boarded a train. In the experimental condition, an additional researcher dressed as Batman entered from another door. Passengers were significantly more likely to offer their seat when Batman was present.

Are we not even making our own disinformation? What happened to American manufacturing?
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

I became a compiler engineer because I wanted to replace a hundred-line Node.js app with Swift and got hopelessly lost in yak shaving.

Running through this made me about 10% more certain that I’m demi-adjacent, because what's keeping me out of the far left corner is a strong lack of interest in casual sex.

100% what happened. The history of anti-trans politics is trying to design a legitimizing study around a conclusion, massaging the data when that doesn't work, and then just giving up and raw-dogging what they were going to do anyway.
Kind of feels like the IOC expected for the study to say "yeah trans women are like the hulk somehow" and when it completely undercut the reasoning behind banning us. They have simply elected to ignore their own work.
