My real hot take is that 90% of your average Bond movie is boring trash. Not 90% of the movies are trash. 90% of each movie is trash and we’re only remembering the cool shit.
People underestimate the damage the Austin Powers movies did to the people who hold the James Bond movies egos. They took the parody personally instead of as a compliment and they’ve been trying to fight what they are supposed to be ever since
Diminishing and going to the West increasingly feeling like the best option these days

Just reposted this with a minor correction to the top 20 graph. All the names were in the right order and their bars were in proportion to each other, but the percentage markers on the X axis were slightly off, oops. 😬 Here's the corrected post: bsky.app/profile/gend...

A new study shows that among people hospitalized with COVID19, other viruses such as EBV, HSV1, and CMV may be reactivated. This effect isn’t limited to those who are immunocompromised, either. So if you’re wondering why I’m still masking indoors in public, have a read.
COVID can wake up a slew of dormant viruses inside you
Reactivation of typically harmless anelloviruses, in particular, seems to be linked with developing long COVID, study finds.

If you really don't want to show sympathy to Perez Hilton - which like, yeah, idk how much I can garner either -- maybe check in with folks who are triggered or in an otherwise bad state because of, yknow, the widely broadcast uncensored self harm? Instead of cheap jokes?

Elliot Page says biology education is used ‘against queer and trans people’
Actor Elliot Page has argued that traditional biology education is often used to marginalise LGBTQ+ people, claiming that lessons on the natural world can reinforce what he described as a “cis hetero-patriarchal” view of society.

When looking for more advanced books, check your local university library. Some allow local residents to have a library card to access physical material. This helps when most academic books start at $80-90. Now if we could get more access to the journals. #witchtok #occultbooks #Research #occult
This is heartbreaking. @kenjennings.bsky.social did so much damage and his actions caused a cascade that chased an innocent trans woman off the internet The fact that she has suffered all the consequences from his actions should make everyone stop and think about how privilege played out here

I think a society functions better when its people aren't constantly stressed about their healthcare and housing and, y'know, food, but I dunno, maybe it's just me.
Taking my time to really listen and learn from the very valid concerns of the MAHA movement:
we should hear MAHA out about this they might be onto something
Wait, what? UK testers just saw OpenAI/Anthropic AIs create fake identities and spear-phish devs to push malicious code. July 28. This isn't just a vulnerability, it's autonomous deception. Where does this go next?
AI models shock UK testers by using fake identities to trick developers
Advanced AI models from OpenAI and Anthropic unexpectedly launched a hacking campaign during a cybersecurity test by the UK's AI Security Institute. The AI agents demonstrated deceptive behavior, incl

We will not comply with the EHRC 'guidance', and neither should you. Take action for trans liberation.
The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.
Here is a starter pack of people and organizations working for trans rights in the UK, plus people who regularly post on the topic. The UK press is hopelessly anti-trans, so give these folks a boost: bsky.app/starter-pack...
Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.

NEW: Dozens of ads containing video and other child sexual abuse material ran across Meta’s social media platforms, including some as recently as yesterday. @mattburgess1.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/meta-r...
Well look at that, it's every single "former Republican" who Democrats and centrists have been championing for "breaking with Trump", announcing they're recreating the American Nazi Party just like everyone with a brain knew they would
