I know writers who use pronouns in their titles and they're cowards, all of them!!!
I consider it my professional obligation to inflict as much collateral psychic damage on passing web designers as possible.

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important
⚠️ Chinese researchers have invented bone glue that mimics how oysters stick to surfaces underwater.

The adhesive can reportedly repair orthopedic fractures in 2-3 minutes, even in blood-rich environments, and is bioabsorbable.

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset.
In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia.
In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

It's a tragedy how many cast members of King of the Hill we've lost, and this one was just absolutely unnecessary.

I think the key here is there needs to be consequences. There were consequences after WWII, and Germany did not keep electing Nazis. There were no consequences after the 2008 crash. There were no consequences for trump after the first term. It was as good as permission.
If we can pull out of this nosedive into Authoritarianism, I think theres a silver-lining... We have steered clear of fascism's pull for 80 years due to the living memory of the Greatest Generation, but now, with them gone, we need a new inoculation from the virus, and this period might be it.

Me watching "The Substance": I would never do something like that just to look young.

Me, imaging if it made me a beautiful man instead: oh no....

I just need you to understand the degree to which every columnist and pundit claiming they just wanted to "follow the science" or have more research on trans kids is just remarkably full of shit

Very good read about the flaws of OpenAI's fight for endless resources and how that's "good business"
As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

I have so much to say about today’s case, legal analysis, and more.

But the most powerful thing today was watching Chase Strangio argue in front of the court as the first trans attorney to do so.

You could feel history, and nobody will ever take that away.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
