Not to be dramatic but I think these women should be allowed to kill people over this.

This is a nuts story. An AI chatbot and image platform left millions of images exposed. They show what people are actually using the AI for: taking random women's yearbook, graduation, and social media photos and making super realistic hardcore porn with them

I think people have kind of memory holed what aughts-era “sex positivity” was really like.

Another woman killed by an abortion ban.
NEW:

In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.

She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.

Then she died.

Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

“We are in the middle of a scandal of elites palling around with one of the most infamous child sex traffickers in the world, and this is our political press? No wonder Epstein got away with it all so long: many of the men tasked with being the watchdogs were almost as gross as he was with women.”

If I could tell you how many women journalists I've known over the years who work so hard despite repeated sexual harassment and discrimination and then to live in a time when the president is openly calling a reporter piggy and that woman probably got paid a lot for that stupid book. I can't.

When I read this Schlafly book for @inbedwiththeright.bsky.social and saw her saying how the Republicans were just imitating the Democrats instead of advancing their own vision, I was like well … what does this remind me of …
not to sound like a goldwaterite, but voters want a choice and not an echo.

For the latest @inbedwiththeright.bsky.social, I went deep with @adriandaub.bsky.social on Helen Andrews’ “The Great Feminization,” and the theory of sexual difference that’s taking the far right by storm: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...
