This is why I get so furious when Democrats take Republican trans panic “concerns” seriously — because it’s all bullshit!
They don’t care about trans people. They only care about power and they’re attacking a vulnerable population to get it.

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things.
There’s no third option.

You know, some days I sit and think about how absolutely wild it is that we've built a society where we don't provide a place for people to even sleep at night without having to pay for it, and that we've somehow made it seem like that's normal.

How about we worry less, as a society, about whether individuals might be cheating to get a disability accommodation or some help buying food, and more about whether extremely wealthy people and corporations are paying their fair share of taxes?

ChatGPT’s signature writing style is everywhere now, and I hate it. It reminds me of when we tried mixing all the beverages at the soda fountain in middle school. We didn’t actually create the perfect drink, we just made a cloying monstrosity that lost everything good about its constituent parts.

Audience culture is the worst it's ever been, I swear to god. People forgot how to act. I'm at the theater, trying to enjoy my show, which I've paid GOOD MONEY for, and these two old assholes are in the balcony heckling the life out of the poor bear onstage. Not letting him finish a single joke.

The safety promise of robotaxis is that they will replace private cars
The problem is if you replace a vehicle carrying an average of 1.2 people with one carrying an average of 0.55 people then you need to more than double your road capacity
A robotaxi future is a future without walkable cities

A reminder that cars aren’t a technology problem. They’re a geometry problem.
Waymo privatized another public street:
Chanel approaching 4th, San Francisco
Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away.
The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined.

Attacking trans children is about attacking all children in the same way attacking trans autonomy is about attacking all bodily autonomy. Our actions are particularly powerful, autonomous and brave, and that means even well meaning ppl find us ideologically disturbing

The only truly irreversible thing a trans child is likely to do is take their own life. "What if they do something irreversible?" actually means "theyre not allowed to make a decision!"

Elon is a bullshit artist but some people are letting negative polarization rewrite their brain to become against objectively good things that he has unfortunately branded himself as being associated with. Actually working self driving cars are obviously good and will likely save many lives.

I won't start ranting about it because I just get myself worked up, but quickly: I literally can not think of an investment of public funds that has a higher return than *cleaning the indoor air in schools*. It's so easy, so cheap, & has such HUGE payoff. Criminal that we basically don't do it.

A friend used to ask me why billionaires want MORE money when no one could ever spend the tiniest fraction of what they have...
...and I said they want infinite dollars to ensure their IMMUNITY -- for all the crimes they'd done and still wanted to do.
