All right ladies (and those who support them and care) time to convene a panel to bring back castration for ALL men and boys who rape!!!!!!
This all-male panel is deciding whether South Carolina women can be charged with murder for their pregnancies — and whether birth control and pro-choice websites stay legal.

This a real thing happening today. Don't look away.

The only ethical way to use AI for research and all other work is to not use it in the first place. It can only do what people already do and even then it is only a poor facsimile of human endeavor

I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight

The British library is in crisis: why does nobody care?
The widespread indifference to the British Library's crippling cyberattack demonstrates a perilous failure to value the knowledge infrastructure vital for national prosperity

I know the whole “Can you imagine if Obama/Biden” thing is trite but truly can you imagine if Obama had appointed a female Sec Def and she had started naming operations things like “Operation Valkyrie Vagina” or “Operation Beef Curtains”

Yeah, I think the worst part of having to get a court order to get the OBC is that there's someone who gets to say no to it. There shouldn't be a gatekeeper for this. The potential for it to cost more is just an added burden, but glad it was reasonable for your friend.
