Latest Private Eye has almost a full page editorial from 'Lady Justice' that starts by wondering why all those who have recently become anti-trans haven't apologised to those who 'got there a little earlier'.
Stopped reading there.
It's on page 8 which is really page 3 as the first 5 pages are ads

SCOOP: YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy. "YouTube quietly removing ‘gender identity and expression’ from its list of protected groups is a major radical shift away from best practices in the field of trust and safety."

There is a PUNCHLINE here
I have decided that two guys arguing about one of my effects pedals paintings on a Facebook pedal forum is too funny not to share. I’ve tried to redact the names, but Will really hates my painting, Max likes it. 1/2

If it was done in defiance of a judges order the technical term for that is "illegal" which means it's not an arrest and deportation - which require those conducting it to at least presume they are acting within the law - but a kidnapping and human trafficking
Valid visa and now gone. BTW, she was here to SAVE LIVES.

one of the most baffling parts of this. I spent the last decade or so prepping to make the "first they came for ethnic studies" version of the Niemoller point to libs. while they did (see the CRT offensive and book bans) I absolutely did not think children's cancer researchers would be next in line
Someone really needs to point out to Bret Stephens types that burning down the entire university to get to the ethnic studies department is unlikely to work, because lots of people who would otherwise throw them to the wolves now see themselves as de facto on the same side as them.

OpenAI Admits That Its New Model Still Hallucinates More Than a Third of the Time
If a partner made stuff up a third of the time, it would be a problem — but apparently, it's perfectly fine for OpenAI's new model.

What's most horrible about today is ... everything Trump did to Zellensky is textbook rich white guy ostracizing an outsider
it's straight up how people have described him treating workers of color and junior execs and what a lot of people watch these dudes do every day

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.
