Kathleen Stock has written an article against "abortion permissiveness". She claims abortion requires "justification" saying the state should limit "unacceptable decision-making" by women about their own bodies.

This is who anti-trans activists proclaim as the feminist thought leaders of our time.

How's the mobile CPU landscape evolving? Thanks to process node improvements, a mid-range Android from 2025 is (finally!) as fast as 2017's iPhone 8, but a low-end (~$100) smartphone isn't yet as speedy as a decade-old iPhone 6s.

re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

Don't take this to mean Signal itself is compromised, the records came from a “sensitive source with excellent access.” Assume there's a mole in any big Signal group.
A “joint situational information report” from the FBI and the New York police department (NYPD), dated 28 August 2025, quoted from a chat on Signal, the encrypted messaging app, and also characterized the court watchers as “anarchist violent extremist actors.”

The myth is circulating again that it was more radical otg activists and assimilationist gays ("boots and suits") teaming up that was responsible for queer communities' gains late '60s on.

The history doesn't back this up. What actually happened is more revealing. 🧵

A High Court challenge to the teen social media ban is expected to be filed as early as next week.

An ex-Liberal candidate with a history of anti-trans remarks, Katherine Deves, is working on the challenge which will argue that LGBTQIA+ teens are unfairly burdened by the ban

On the appalling story of Derek Elias, who has spent four years trying to alert the government to the bad things happening at Home Affairs
Life as a Home Affairs whistleblower
Four years ago, Home Affairs assistant secretary Derek Elias attempted to report corruption in offshore contracts – the government's response has left him unwell and in financial turmoil.

Find it icky if you want, at least calling for your enemies to be killed fixes the problem of your enemies doing harm. calling for your enemies to be *raped* is actually just deranged and cannot fix anything. (unless you need to dominate your enemies, in which case hm gross!)

When men do this, they confirm that just like the men they pretend hold different values than them, they too believe rape (& misogyny) are acceptable tools of punishment as long as you dislike the person. The only difference is they hate different women, though sometimes they overlap & bond over it

A thing people don’t know that may underlie this decision: a “professional degree” gives a Canadian or a Mexican a right to a TN visa, which allows you to show up at the border with your diploma and a job offer and get a visa on the spot. That may be what’s going on here.
In case you missed it: The DoEd has proposed a new definition of "professional degrees," reducing the list from roughly 2,000 programs to fewer than 600. This change limits loan accessibility for though no longer considered professional, in particular, many healthcare degrees 🧵

Ethnic cleansing, torture, oppression, dispossession, slavery will continue, as it has since 1948. Palestine is not the threat…Isreal is the threat.
Netanyahu: “A Palestinian state will not be established. It’s an existential threat to Israel and unrealistic even with reforms.”

Obama bombed a wedding btw. 23 children were killed.
What if the political ideology of the people in charge of the armed forces impacts who gets bombed? Does anyone think Kamala Harris would declare war on South American fishermen? Could perhaps having people who think brown people are subhuman in charge of our military impacted matters?
What about the rights of LGBT people getting bombed?

the problem is too many people think trans liberation means insurance covers GAC and everyone learns neopronouns, instead of what we actually mean by it which is stuff like complete bodily autonomy, OTC hormones, repudiation of the state’s control over our bodies, and an end to our genocide

I guess one difference between me and Elon Musk is that, if I was gaming an AI to say these things about me, and everyone could see that I had done this, I'd have simply no choice but to set myself on fire.
