As it turns out, “you are too stupid: let the water poison computer do everything for you” is not a sustainable business model

Gender affirming care for trans people is safe, effective, and has a lower regret rate (4%) than almost any major medical procedure. It saves lives. These are facts. The right's talking-points are recycled "they are coming for your children!" scare tactics well over fifty years old at this point.
New research finds trans teens have high satisfaction with gender care
The survey published in JAMA Pediatrics showed that trans teens taking puberty blockers or hormones had very low rates of regret.

“Joe Campbell, a Pentecostal preacher who for half a century ministered to thousands of children across four states, has been arrested on child sex abuse charges, the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office said Wednesday.“

Still not a drag queen.

I'll go a step further. 2025 has been far worse than even the years during the height of the pandemic at the start of this decade. Fascists and billionaires are actively working to dismantle every safety net that was invaluable to all of us surviving during that time, all for profits and cruelty.
Considering the fact we're pretty much over the halfway point, I'm just gonna say it: the 2020s suck.

These people want leftist and liberals to come back to Twitter so badly. They give all kinds of reasons, but the fact is without them the Nazi bar marinates in its own juices and they can't stand it.

So systemic discrimination DOES exist! But white guys are the victims of it!

The most intellectually, politically, and culturally lazy cohort in modern history - white guys of mediocre intellect, creativity, & personality who can only ape the theories, language, laws, & struggle of Black people.
Guys, victimhood culture is alpha now

In Super Mario Sunshine, each plank of the Pianta Village bridge has separate collision for an unknown reason. This causes microscopic invisible gaps to form between the planks that extremely unfortunate players can slip through and die. Below is a compilation of such cases.

We’re not running out of good ideas, but the tech fetishists who have no ideas other than “but I put a lot of money and emotion into this basket” always do, and their narcissism does not allow them to consider that their failed ideas suck, and the flop sweat is palpable.

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

"It's just concept art, who cares if they use genAI and not actual artists?"

Look at this concept art for C-3P0 by Ralph McQuarrie.

It's the very thing that inspired Anthony Daniels to go for the role of Threepio and perform him as such.

It is the first heartbeat of the art that now exists.
