Louder for the coaches wearing the correct t shirt and yet still behaving in an appalling manner: "Either you want trans people in your stands or you want transphobes. You can’t have both. And I can tell you that if you choose the transphobes you will be on the wrong side of history."

Namely, that trans people are not hypothetical thought experiments. They are real people who are being genocided by our government & any coverage that doesn't center that reality misses the mark.

Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...
Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

She deserved to get booed. You don't go work for an organization with a queer-positive fandom and then badmouth queer people and advocate for them being second-class citizens. You think Rick Rubin would get calls from black artists if people knew about his MAGA turn? Just Kanye, but that's it.
Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social · yesterdayAbsolutely nobody knew who Riley Gaines was when she was swimming for Kentucky -- there wasn't a whole arena booing her at that time.
Thinking about this in conjunction with the article released on how the protection of solar farms made berries sweeter. We can make conditions safer and more pleasant for people while helping communities and the earth at the same time.

The more boxes we fill the more we make. The person closest to the truck has the hardest job so we switch off. This is exhausting work." #WeFeedYou

Frankie de la Cretaz@thefrankiedlc.news · 2d agoThis is the WNBA & Indiana Fever’s fault. This is from XX XY Athletics’ IG account—that’s Sophie Cunningham with Riley Gaines & Jennifer Sey. The worst transphobes. I haven’t written about it bc it’s gutting how unprepared the league was for this & now we have explicit hate visible at games.
NEW: ICE is collecting unprecedented quantities of DNA from detainees, including children. Those samples sit, indefinitely, in an FBI database built for criminal investigations. "People are very confused about why their DNA is being tested. I do not think they’re being told what the purpose is."

A few weeks ago I realized that tomorrow is the date the Ray Bradbury story “There Will Come Soft Rains” takes place. It’s a shame science fiction from 75 years ago isn’t relevant anymore
There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury

Those of you eager to serve wealthy MLB owners as volunteer Pinkertons won’t like to read this, but as usual Joe Sheehan nails the real problem:
never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
