Good god. Meta is using their AI licensing deals with John Cena, Disney, and others to peddle sex chat bots to kids. Burn this company to the fucking ground. www.wsj.com/tech/ai/meta...

Trump fired the chairman of the Joint Chiefs and put a loyalist in his place.

Very bad.

Trump Fires Joint Chiefs Chairman Amid Turmoil at Pentagon (Gift Article)
The decision to fire Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr. reflects the president’s insistence that the military’s leadership is too mired in diversity issues and has lost sight of its combat role.

My depressing thought for the day: it seems increasingly inevitable that quite soon, Trump decides to simply disregard a court finding that some of his actions are illegal or unconstitutional. Impeachment is attempted & fails thanks to loyal Republicans. At which point there are no good options.

Some context here:

In the U.S. the tariffs are like one of 5 major political stories this weekend.

In Canada they are everything. Wall to wall coverage. The clicks on our tariff copy are setting records - never seen a reaction like this to a single-day news event.
If you’re wondering how big of a deal this is for Canada, the public broadcaster has been live-streaming coverage almost non-stop for the past 11 hours.

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak.

Only to the part where my pronouns get debated but woof (full disclosure, Aaron reached out to me in advance about this and I agreed it was important that people see the mask come off with these folks)
I do not understand how people can define respect as anything but “trying not to cause harm”
New episode out for everyone! I'm joined by Ed Buckner, former president of American Atheists. We discuss his criticism of my post about Jerry Coyne's anti-trans article that was posted by FFRF and now CFI. I'm sharing the whole ep cause there's some significant stuff in the bonus content. Enjoy!

A former president of American Atheists, Ed Buckner, whiffed on the easiest question in the interview.
Just to tease this one a bit, my favorite exchange of the whole episode:

Me: Was Hitler a bigot?

Ed: Well, I'm no expert on Hitler...

TERFs can’t even get self interest right. This will come at the cost of both trans rights and women’s rights as they question and harass women who don’t conform to white Christian ideals of femininity.
🚨 Trump will instruct the federal government tomorrow via an executive order to not recognize that transgender people exist and exclusively recognize people as their sex assigned at birth.

Trump will undo every protection he can for trans individuals, but it will come at the cost of both trans rights and women’s rights as they question and harass women who don’t conform to white Christian ideals of femininity.

Great breakdown. The fact that CFI felt the need to respond at all is so telling of where they’re at.
Earlier this week, a coalition of atheist/Humanist groups reaffirmed their support of LGBTQ rights.

The Center For Inquiry has now released its own (pathetic) statement doubling down on anti-trans bigotry.

I go through the problems here:
