Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

So, at this point you may well have seen an article like this one: movieweb.com/neil-gaiman-..., and I really want to talk about what it actually means from a legal perspective. Just to establish bona fides here, I'm not a lawyer. I'm a guy who went to law school, got out, and learned he hated law

Lucy Dacus just married about a dozen couples on stage at All Things Go and even though marriage is a horrible idea and it’s crazy anyone chooses to do it, I’m trying to hold it together in front of the teens I’m with because blubbering would definitely get me kicked out of the cool mom club

Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.

They want more MOMS at home. And not just because they hate women.
Their *economic* model depends on unpaid labor. And the most effective way to coerce unpaid labor is to create a second class of people and teach them that they're only "naturally" suited for labor they're forced to do for free.

I agree with John Roberts that our schools should do more to explain how much of today’s crisis stems from outrageous rulings by courts like his.
John Roberts, who has abdicated the Supreme Court's role in government and through his decisions, has facilitated the deforming of the government's structure and the debilitation of public education, would like to blame the teachers, thank you very much.

I think we are great risk of a future where unregulated use of tech turns America’s educational system into something even more segregated and classist than it is today - poor kids get largely automated “education” and surveillance discipline, rich kids get gentle low-tech instruction from humans.
I went to a private Waldorf high school in the 2000s that was filled with the children of tech professionals - who explicitly wanted a lower-tech education for them.
Many tech execs believe in careful exposure to tech for their kids, while also thinking AI teaching is fine for the great unwashed.
