I went to a university hospital to keep up my HRT. The experience was frustrating and demeaning, the endo staff in full gatekeeper mode. I set up a Planned Parenthood telehealth call to get HRT from them instead. Easy, quick, meds right to the pharmacy and yes I'll up my prog, thank you for asking.

Capybaras keep their chill while crashing Brazilian legislature

Capybaras have been making surprise visits to a Brazilian state legislature. These chill rodents strolled into the legislative building in Cuiaba, Mato Grosso, last week, catching lawmakers off guard.

Journalism has become the art of stubbornly refusing to draw the obvious conclusion

Many people have good examples here but I just keep wanting to say "Hey quick question - what was the state of antiretroviral technology in 1986?"

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

when the revised code dropped a lot of lab mps where like "wait, how do services be trans inclusive if they want to?" &, like, they can't. that's the whole point this is what we've been trying to tell you for almost 2 years & you've been blithely ignoring us

The use of extremely online memetic aesthetics to support far-right political goals is like something out of Walter Benjamin’s nightmares.

My kids just roll their eyes when i pause finding nemo to explain this problem for the 12th time

As a defender of traditional gender roles, I am concerned that Ed is promoting Finding Nemo, where Marlin stays male after his wife died. When the dominant female dies the largest male clownfish turns female. This is basic biology! I don't want my child to grow up confused about clownfish.

I swear to God, part of the problem of literacy is that we make kids read SO MANY books like this. Of course they’re going to associate reading with misery! We put them in a Skinner box and shock them when they read, what did people THINK would happen?

Nick Harkaway@nickharkaway.com · yesterday

Having ranted about school curriculum books, I’ve just seen my son’s summer reading list, and all I can say is “I was right”. A more depressing collection would be tricky to assemble. Are we actively trying to convey to kids the idea that reading is dismal and arduous?

oh, how I wish this was a job a person could still have

"Platner’s first deployment, in early 2005, began at the Abu Ghraib prison complex, part of which the military had rechristened Camp Redemption." missed that detail the first time around!

Do we have a sense of how this will play out at undergrad institutions that let you declare a major late in the game or switch majors late in the game? Is this gonna be a function of your coursework or just the degree you're on the record as pursuing?

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

Personally I would love to see Bluesky expand. It shouldn’t just be the app for leftists who can’t stand Matt Yglesias! It should also be the app for liberals who can’t stand Matt Yglesias. And apolitical folks who can’t stand Yglesias. And, yes, even conservatives who can’t stand Matt Yglesias!

Wait, that's a real quote? I thought that was a joke.

Finally saw The Odyssey, which is the consummate Christopher Nolan film in that it has moments of near-sublime spectacle that make you believe in Big Movies again mixed together with dialogue like, "Our Age of Bronze is ending."

Socrates wore it better.

That said, let us take a moment to thank our Bluesky Trans and Furry Elders for freaking out Jack Dorsey so much he bolted and left us this nice social media playground, taking most of his crypto chuds with him. We thank you for your service.

I already knew on some level that this GC shit corrodes the soul but *damn*.

You'd have to read to the thirteenth paragraph to discover the pull quote for the title was from Marcus Siding, a 23-year-old Swedish man living in Sweden that wanted to become a cop, but his ADHD diagnosis at the age of 12 barred him by law from becoming a Swedish cop Seems relevant
