I wish more people really understood how terrible Betterhelp is for both clients and therapists.

The level of skill and athleticism in the women’s division of #WWE is leagues ahead of anything the men are doing.

When people say fiscally conservative, socially liberal this is what they mean - they want to decide the people who can be sacrificed based on bank account rather than skin colour. But they still want there to be disposable people.
I keep saying this, but...

...punishing the homeless is how big-city and blue state liberals do fascism.

Every moment of joy in my life is trans joy. Every time I pet one of our corgis, every time I laugh with my partners, every time I play Mario Kart with my nephew, it’s all trans joy.

Wow am I hyped for this. Brianna Wu is so vile. She isn’t part of my community, she is a cancer upon it.
Brianna Wu has made a career on lies.

I spoke to several people who’ve worked with her, dove deep into her history, and uncovered things she doesn’t want you to see.

In their mind, they're entitled to bullying and harassing us.
But even a tiny semblance of consequences triggers an outrage.

That's the anti-trans movement, for the past 10 years, in a nutshell.

I wish more cis people understood that this, too, is actually torturous.

Yeah you, trans person, you stay frozen as a child whilst your peers age around you and when you get to 18 maybe then you get to start trying to catch up. Because we, cis people, find your existence objectionable.
I wonder how far a Dem politician could get with “I will reduce gender confirming surgery in children to almost zero, I will instead require that doctors analyze these children’s mental health and offer safe and commonly prescribed medications that will help postpone decisions until they’re older”

I borked up my Mastodon server so hard, the database wasn’t recoverable. Since that would be like the fourth time I’ve started over on Mastodon, I just decided to stop using it.

Because no one spends as much on science as the US does, destroying NIH, NSF, NOAA, NASA, EPA, USDA, USGS, etc. is leading to a brain drain, but it's not to other countries but rather from science. This senseless destruction of US science will hurt the US and the world for a very long time.
To see why destroying the US science enterprise is so detrimental to the world, we have to realize that the US spends more on research and development than any other country in the world (by far), and if we remove China and Japan, the US spends almost as much as ALL other countries combined.

Does anyone else use @matrix.org for messaging? I setup my own Dendrite homeserver, but don't know anyone else who uses it.

For the last couple of days, I’ve been hosting training based on #SMPTE2110. Covering the basics of how it works and how to work with it.

Being considered a resource and knowledgeable about something like video over IP feels weird.

Have movie studios changed the way they decide what kind of movies get made? Absolutely they have.

I wish the things I was interested in and knowledge about was of any interest to literally any other queer person.

Broadcast systems and video over IP is such a niche topic.

The past couple of weeks, I’ve been working on a large project that involves several hundred #SMPTE2110 devices.

During a network failure test, one of our product types failed to stay routable and connected from the secondary network.
