Jane Goodall's work insisting, with evidence from her brilliant and tenacious fieldwork, that we were not so separate from animals, and they were much more like us than the Eurocentric theorists asserted, was so important.

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?"
Turns out, mom was right.

Pentagon to resume medical care for transgender troops
The move is another setback for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who has made culture war issues a major part of his role.

I wrote a pep talk? I started with how I actually feel powerful that an expensive computer program that ate all of my work and that of all writers is still not as good as all of us it stole from. Then I went a few places. Anyway, it's here. mailchi.mp/e87ac78bc7b7...

Everyone should read this, especially for the bits in the article that give us some insight into what these detention prisons used by ICE are like.

Hey, look, yet another campus settling this peacefully.
It's almost like the university presidents that called in armed police to their campuses to handle their own students made an incredibly stupid mistake and should be forever banned from leading an educational institution.

It won't get the attention it deserves because it happened here and it's decidedly un-sensational, but the UWM administration's response to our student encampment is an object lesson in the virtues of restraint and non-escalation, and should be a national model
UW-Milwaukee strikes deal with pro-Palestinian protesters to take down encampment
Protesters have until Tuesday morning to take down the tents. They also agreed not to disrupt commencement, which will be held May 19.

All of this is true, and in addition, when we stop using AI art, it stops using water and electricity, but if we stop using human artists, the human still exists and has needs that must be met.
An AI datacenter devours enough water and electricity for a whole city of people each day.
A human artist only takes up as much electricity and water as any single human.
This is why, even if we settle copyrights and such, AI will always be immoral. Just pay a human.

A bit of a digression, but Scientific American has been one of the biggest supporters of trans existence and trans rights of any major media org that exists and props to them for that.
There have been three major waves of opposition to transgender health care in the past century, including today's. Each wave has used pseudoscience to justify its hostility to trans people, including today's. 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/pseu...
