Awesome to see the interview clip I found being used in Mel Curth's case. Nice.
During one interview, the student admitted that she merely looked at the topic and then rushed together a response based on her personal feelings regarding a tangential issue that was the main thesis of the assigned article, because she was in a hurry to go see a play that evening with her friend.

seems conspicuous that programmer commentary on genAI is split between

"oh yeah i use claude all the time now. the 10× programmer is real and he's me. i am a god"

and

"yeah my coworkers use claude all the time. they keep committing crap that doesn't work and now i spend half my time fixing it"

To be clear, I don't know this because I'm overly familiar with Rock Astley's oeuvre, but because I am a strange little freak about old buildings and the window tracery in question is utterly unique and, frankly, geometrically evil.

This. OMG, this.

Manhood and testosterone were an unending nightmare *for me*, but watching my transmasc friends blossom into the fullness of their manhood made me believe in the beauty of masculinity for the first time in my life.

Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to read The Will to Change.
As someone who hated testosterone, I see too often how people demonize it when all it is is that it just wasn't right for you. I know countless trans men and trans mascs that it has helped, just as estradiol has helped me.

I hated being a man. That doesn't mean being one is inherently evil.
Still can't get over how fucking cruel this is. Fuck off Devon

gooner was a niche fetish term but now it got turned into a word that's used in a reactionary sense to shame anything a lil too suggestive and horny. often affecting real body types and self expression.

I never really thought about it before but there's something odd about fairy tales having women under spells waiting for "true loves kiss".

I guess it shows how authors at the time saw women, as a prize. Having zero agency until a man comes along and completes them. Then their life can begin.

I also don't think people are taking into account just how malicious AI proponents can be, and however much we might be angered by games sold to us with undisclosed AI, assets are being sold to developers with undisclosed AI also. This is something being done *TO* developers also!

the biggest lie the british press tell about trans ppl isn't actually about trans ppl.

it's their claim that 'gender critical' is a grass roots movement.

it's a ruling class bigotry sparked and spurred on by the american religious right. it's a media and political class bigotry.

“There is no mention in anti-porn rhetoric of how much the hatred voiced by ‘respectable’ women puts the slut in danger, how much ‘nice’ women’s jealousy and fear of being identified with her isolates the slut and makes it possible for her to be exploited and abused.”

Okay real talk, the only sense in which GenAI is "here to stay" is that even after the bubble pops, AI is digital asbestos that is poisoning everything and we'll probably be picking the detritus out of everywhere it's ended up for years, assuming there's a will to remove it en masse that is.

honestly, “it’s because they’re still mad about the New Deal” is a pretty good guiding hypothesis for a lot of stuff
The standard story was that 1950s religious revivals were about contrasting America with the godless commies of the USSR, but I found material that hinted at an older well funded campaign that reframed the revival as a corporate pushback against the New Deal.

So I followed that unexpected thread!

Purity culture, which lets be honest, has been plaguing the US in some form or another since the beginning, warps sex, making it violent or forbidden or something to be used against people. Sex, if you enjoy it, is simply part of being human. Moralizing sex fucks people up.
I'm gonna be real: many many times when I've watched a sexy TV show and gone "oh wow, this is being surprisingly normal and positive about sex!" I later found out it was a Canadian production.

I have *never* thought that about HBO. If I'm uncomfortable and sad, I check to see if it's HBO.
Heated Rivalry is a Crave production, from Canada. HBO is just a distributor. I really wish people would stop attributing anything in the production of this show to HBO.

Sounds like this set was run how they all should be. HBO once again leading the industry in intimacy directing.

Important thread from a former NYT staffer breaking down how the paper's genocidal anti-trans crusade is directed, top down, from the highest levels of the organization.

Stop putting bullets in the gun that's killing us. Boycott the New York Times.
The story never ran. Coverage of Cass was taken away from the international desk, per order of top editors in NY, and given to the science desk. That desk had been a leader in promoting anti-trans disinformation throughout 2022-23. (Hundreds of the nyt own contributors had denounced its bias)

if queerness did turn out to be chosen behavior, then so what? i enjoy existing now.

the level of emotional & physical intimacy i have with friends & chosen companions is exquisite.

i was told by pastors that homosexuals would try to “convert me” & yet i find myself queer & trans on my own accord.

While ReBoot isn't lost media by any means, the extent to which this restoration project has been going is simply INCREDIBLE.

They got the D-1 master tapes. Then the hardware to read them. Then service manuals to repair/maintain. THEN, CRITICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS. And now they're ERROR CORRECTING.
I am in awe. The folks at ReBoot ReWind have done something astonishing. A remarkable feat of engineering, ingenuity and love. Check it out and give them some ReBooty love in return.

I rejected an offer to bring one of my games to this device (in a box with its branding) because of the CEO’s ties to weapons making. This absolutely cements that I made the right decision.
