I'm really tired of people pretending that this is about whether or not the essay was bad! It's not. It's about trying to purge trans people from society. The student called the TA a fucking demon, man. Do you know what that's like?

In college, I had to read the Department of Defense’s Law of War manual.
I kid you not when I tell you that firing at the shipwrecked is quite literally provided as an example of an illegal order.

I do not know who needs to hear this, so here it is anyway. My Dad used to rail on this point with me...
If you hear or see someone say:
I would/believe/think/help/etc X; BUT <something diametrically opposite>.
The "But" in the sentence always means: fuck what I just said, here's what I meant"

Arthur C. Clarke's favorite definition of an intellectual was:
"Someone who has been educated beyond his/her intelligence."
This guy is exactly the type of person Clarke was referring to.

Always liked Parker, so this nastiness is rather disappointing.
I’ll always defend trans rights as I have all my career. But I also believe in the First Amendment’s protecting people being wrong.
And that’s where my engagement will respectfully end for the day.

I am so fucking tired of Pretendocrats: people who play at the idea of standing as liberals until it's actually time to go toe to toe on a real fucking issue, and then they turn into a limp fish.
Their whole premise amounts to: "Maybe if we ask nicely enough, and agree to disagree calmly"

Yeah.
So, Prairie Farms milk is sold here in Indiana by a store called Strack and Van Til; we stopped buying this milk years ago because it has ALWAYS smelled & tasted off. We get milk from Aldi or Meijer.
I wouldn't give PF Milk to a rabid dog I hated. It's always been sketch.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

I've noticed there's been growing interest in vintage animated shorts by younger gens. Kids with no attached nostalgia seem to love old Looney Tunes, Merrie Melodies, Silly Symphonies, and Fleischer shorts. I think it might be an instinctual rejection of AI coupled with meta pop culture burnout.
