3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Huge scoop from Ed, who had several years of financial reports leaked to him. OpenAI has been over-reporting their revenue. The company is even less profitable than we knew.
Exclusive: Based on documents viewed by this newsletter, OpenAI spent over $12.4 billion on inference from 2024 to September 2025. As part of its Microsoft revenue share, it sent $493.8m in 2024/$865.8m Jan-Sep 2025, implying lower revenues than previously reported.

The absolute gall of this. Trans people have been loudly decrying the blatant institutionalized transphobia being pumped out of the BBC offices FOR YEARS, and some staff made up bullshit "memo" sends the entire organization crashing within a week because they aren't transphobic ENOUGH.
“It reflected a “cultural problem across the BBC” which treats issues of gender and sexuality as ‘a celebration of British diversity’ rather than a complex and contentious subject.”
Just a second - what exactly is contentious about sexuality and gender identity?

the entirety of the british press talked themselves into believing this woman is trans based almost entirely on JK Rowling's judgement of the athlete's appearance.
Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

There's a question here that I don't think a lot of people want to ask, because the answer is just too grim to contemplate, and that's how is this murder not a policy victory for the British government? Is this not the intended outcome of smearing trans people as dangerous predators?
