This was my reaction too and I don't even know whether the "we" is humanists, women, people with the ability to read, Canadians, fans of Sappho, fans of Emily Dickinson, translators, classicists, or people who appreciate the feelings of sad red monsters. Either way, yes

Jane Doe, who was allegedly sexually assaulted in 2024 at Cornell University, is facing death threats and swatting - resulting in police pointing guns at her family.

I will not vote for, endorse, campaign for, or donate to any candidate or party that does not explicitly endorse FULL AND EQUAL RIGHTS to trans people in all areas of society. I'm not a full citizen, you don't get my second-class vote. Period. I don't think I can make it any clearer.

In 2026, there are 26 Dems running for Congress, Senate, Governor, or Statewide Office who have made anti-trans votes or statements. Iowa, New York, Ohio, and Texas lead the pack in anti-trans Democrats. Your EITM candidate guide for this election cycle. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Anthropic banning “abusive or cruel behavior” toward Claude in its new usage policies is proof to me that tech companies are going to moderate violence against AI before they ever moderate violence against women and minorities

Many congratulations to Anne Carson for the well-deserved Nobel Prize! This is also great news for Translation, Classics, Poetry, the breaking of generic and disciplinary boundaries, and the fact that you don't have to fit a pre-existing mould to have a brilliant, successful career.

There was a lot of crap on the early Internet, but that was just Sturgeon's Law. Now the crap on the internet is because of systematic enshittification by those who want to harvest our eyeballs.

there was streaming before the big companies, and they criminalized it when it was free because it was unfair to artists, and now that it's for-profit it's legal and it's still fucking unfair to artists.

even things like g**gle maps, which used to be AMAZING and now is obstructive, obfuscating, all but useless advertising and misinformation bullshit - even big coordination things like that CAN BE DONE without the comemierda companies - wikipedia, among others, shows that.

NOT A SINGLE FUCKING THING. There was already so much to read, look at, learn, explore, collage, so much weirdness and trueness and falseness and brilliance on the internet. And it got fucked up not because people wanted to earn money, but because a few people were determined to earn a LOT of money

I'll say it again: WE DO NOT NEED THESE COMEMIERDAS AND THEIR WASTEFUL LYING POLLUTING COMEMIERDA COMPANIES FOR A SINGLE THING. The internet is us.

The internet was and in some places still is great because people love interacting and making art and sharing what they just saw in their home town or on their travels and scribing elaborate rants and playing games and making friends and meeting new people and inventing personae and collaborating an

This picture will always be iconic. RIP Margaret Hamilton who wrote the software that successfully guided NASA’s Apollo missions through the moon.

"Trans people only get rights if they live in safe blue congressional districts" is an openly segregationist stance and I'm sick of anyone pretending otherwise.

You could just pivot and shut the fuck up instead of harassing vulnerable communities over far right fear mongering bullshit. If trans kids playing in sports is a deciding issue for that voter they are voting Republican! You cannot get their vote! Come the fuck on!

"The economy is in freefall, the water is cancer, diesel prices are through the roofs, and you want to talk about a theoretical child running track in an event your kids don't compete in, because they live in Kansas, like you do? Out of touch, out of state weirdos running for governor" come on.

"My opponent wants to pass laws to hurt a handful of high school student while appointing stranger to look up your daughter's skirt in the name of protecting them--that's weird and wrong and disgusting and I'll fight like hell to stop them" come on something like that but more articulate.

If you're willing to sell out trans kids for theoretical votes I have to assume you'd sell out anyone for theoretical votes, so, yes, I do think supporting sports bans means you get not a fucking thing from me.

On the one hand there's the annihilation of our children's thinking abilities. But on the other, HOW WILL THEY BE PREPARED FOR THE JOB MARKET IF WE DONT GET THEM HOOKED TO A TECHNOLOGY THAT BUSINESSES ARE USING LESS AND LESS NOW THAT IT'S NOT FREE AND STILL SUCKS??

There is SO MUCH evidence that generative A.I. use degrades our learning, thinking, reasoning, and imaginative capacities. It is a cognitive disaster and that would be blatantly obvious even without the studies to back it up. Leaving that quote unchecked is terrible work.

i do think it's worth stopping for a moment to recognize how extraordinary and how fucked up it is that this sentence exists.

I genuinely did not realize until a conversation last year that spook is still experienced as a slur and I stopped using it.

I didn’t expect people to care about this one because we have the “spook” conversion every year. It was humbling and amazing to see so many people read this and take it to heart. horrorpress.com/editorials/1...

Unionized journalists and product engineers at The Inquirer secured a new contract that includes AI protections, raises, and changes to healthcare coverage.

Cannot emphasize enough that the morass we find ourselves in everywhere is a result of this commitment to white supremacy. The eugenic health policy, the belief and desire for US autarky, meddling & murder in Latin America, the half-cocked belief that the US could bully Iran- it really is.
