Just a reminder that generative AI is theft of labor and intellectual property, uses vast amounts of energy/ water, provides at best mediocre results (if not outright lies or misinformation), actually affects your ability to think over time (mind duh), and is in general a really fucking bad idea.

Oh man I am so glad this movie is coming out
Heightened Scrutiny, a very good doc about the Supreme Court case that was just ruled on, does an impeccable and infuriating job laying out just how culpable the NYT and Atlantic are for the nation’s transphobia www.avclub.com/sundance-202...

People are like, "Wow, so the Supreme Court can just decide what medical care you get instead of you and your doctor?" Yeah man. That was Dobbs. They don't give a fuck about us, about precedent, the actual text of the law, the intent of the law, or anything else. The law is fake.

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

1. The US Transgender Survey has finally been released, and the results are stunning.

- <1% of people are less satisfied after HRT.
- The most common reason for detransition, pausing transition, or stopping transition is transphobia.

The latest from S. Baum.

Largest Trans Survey Ever: Top Reason Trans People Stop Transitioning Is Transphobia
“In almost every single case, the reason was anti-trans discrimination in the form of pressure to ‘detransition’ from one’s family, friends, or community.”

~80% of US Jews voted against Trump last year

The other ~20% scare the absolute shit out of me
Possibly the most antisemitic thing I’ve ever seen in public. Trying to erase huge swaths of American Jewish history.

Want to help trans folks? Here's a good opportunity.
Department of Education FAFSA changes are open for public comment. The changes include requiring trans students to misgender themselves and removes the nonbinary option on forms. Note: comment period is 60 days, and comments are publicly visible.

This is the way forward. Legal requirement to default to chron feed of opted-in content, or you can’t sell ads in the territory. Algo must be at least one click away on all socials.
This is necessary. Social media isn’t going away, and the gravity of algo feeds is fascist content.
NYS senator @agounardes.bsky.social also said he's introduced legislation to require social media companies to give folks the option to TURN OFF THE ALGORITHM. Huge in an era of right wing ownership and control of algorithmic feeds. Tell your NY reps to support this! pluribusnews.com/news-and-eve...

Holy shit! This bill makes it a felony to call a child by the correct name and pronouns, even with parental permission.

Republicans want to exterminate all trans people.

Fuck every Democrat who bought and repeated their "It's about fairness in sports and protecting kids" bullshit.
🚨BREAKING: Missouri has introduced a bill that would make affirming the gender of a student a FELONY and require teachers to be REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS.

This is unconstitutional, horrific, and cruel.

I used to work for an elected official as the person who answered their emails. I can tell you from personal experience, if even twenty or thirty people all call an official in a day, they start panicking. This stuff does help.
I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today.

If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.

Your regular reminder that the first known clinic to offer gender-affirming surgeries was … destroyed by Nazis.

I know there’s a lot right now. But folks need to understand what this means.

A suspension this long would mean people living with HIV lose their medicine for months. People around the world lose their PrEP for months, putting millions at risk of getting HIV. Drug-resistant strains could emerge.
