techno-optimists befuddled by declining popular support for “the robot that tells you to kill yourself”, “the pervert glasses“, and “the camera network that stalks you”

i love when i mention a surgery to a cis person and they talk about how THEY’d love to get that done and im so lucky to have it covered by insurance. it rocks and when it happens im not mentally loading The Gun

any response to transphobia that falls short of open hostility is support, as has been the case in the defense of the most politically vulnerable population at any other point in history. politeless and decorum are dark alleys where disenfranchised people are hurt and killed out of your sight

i simply find it a little hard to believe that shortly after every website implemented ai code and fired a bunch of engineers they all started breaking constantly every single day but its not related to the ai code or the skeleton crew

My partner in Idaho was just told by HR that the newly passed Idaho bathroom bans, that put a felony on your record after the first offense, aren't a big deal and won't impact her ability to work in the office, so if you're cis and you try to dismiss any trans shit to me today I will snap at you

i think a cool thing is that every time some right winger is revealed to have, let’s say, a non-normative sexuality, i get to hear what liberals really think about me but feel they can’t voice :)

Every year, January to April, people accuse me of fearmongering in my reporting. Every year around this time, bills pass. And without fail, every year, the ratchet tightens. And now Idaho just passed a bill that could put me in prison for years—for washing my hands in a bathroom.

1. Idaho has passed the most extreme anti-trans law in the nation, a bathroom ban. The second offense would be 5 years in jail, and the 4th offense could lead to life in prison due to Idaho's 3 strikes law. It now heads to Governor Brad Little's desk. Subscribe to support our journalism.

what do you mean you hate black licorice? do you also hate picking at that itchy little bit of skin around your fingernail? do you also hate walking in the rain when a cold breeze cuts through you? do you also hate the feeling of knowing you've let down a loved one?
