Like meaningfully “don’t give the kid the antidepressants because it’ll turn him into a zombie” helped form the skeleton of the child forced detransition movement.

There is culpability in the late 90s early 00s rock musicians who decided that giving children medication is a bad thing and is a sign of our “degenerate” society. They were the spiritual tastemakers of that time. And now anti-medicine rhetoric is killing people, particularly those kids.

I've increasingly seen the terms "Biological [male/female]" used to talk about trans people, even by people trying to be supportive, and I wanted to get my thoughts down about that. The tl;dr is that the terms are slurs and factually wrong, and pushing back when you see them is appreciated.

Transitioning is moving from gender dysphoria to the normal level of body dysmorphia the patriarchy foces all women into

"Don't be mean to people who just like Harry Potter" I will be. That conversation started and ended ten years ago. It no longer holds up to scrutiny. Over the span of a whole Decade, you were unwilling to resolve your dependence on an IP which solely acts as the bankrolling of a genocidal Nazi party

walking past race science 101 and the professor is just writing “stereotypes = generally true” on a white board while a dude in the back of the class carves a swastika into his desk

hi, our already precarious and unsafe housing has very suddenly become unlivable and we need to get out of it and secure new housing as soon as possible and we have no money whatsoever to do so. please help if you can #mutualaid #transcrowdfund gofund.me/d15efd190

silly observation but it's funny how people are so indoctrinated into misogynist gender role ideas that they'll assume that baby birds are raised by their mum only when for all back garden type birds both parents play an equal role

Not surprising that Stephen Pinker would be listed amongst the “race” “science” supporting creeperati. He was part of the Epstein Edge Foundation “race” “science” and “biological determinism” elite men’s club. podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/v...

And more of them. These academics are being played for fools and some are just Cofnas’s fellow travelers.

I can't believe the amount of recent history revisionism in the UK. Response to Polish immigration was so severe that it successfully led to Brexit. BREXIT. And tanked British economy. This happened last decade, you can just Google it.

It's permanently on record what a craven slug you are. Enjoy the future you have made for yourself.

This may be true of others but I actually got express permission from the trans community to keep NYT games and recipes. I also have a news subscription, which is arguably worse, so I had to specifically send in a written request. Took 30 days but I got approved.

thank you Pete Hegseth for vindicating my 3-year old shitpost

The Art of War is so funny when you realise it's basically a very frustrated Sun Tzu writing The Absolute Dipshit Entitled Brat Silver Spoon Nepo Baby's Guide to Not Immediately Fucking Up A War, which also explains why CEO's like it so much

Hey everyone, a friend of mine who's not on the site is between jobs and about to go without food. If anyone could help her out by donating a few bucks or sharing this it would help her massively

Spargo really is such a delight. These are just things you can't know about the UK unless you are condemned to it.

John Rich, a member of the country music duo Big & Rich, is the “Special Envoy for American Landowners” and has been advocating for Fenn Church as Alabama Power seeks to acquire some of his land for an easement to put down a transmission line.

Honestly once you understand large parts of the gender critical movement as abusers raging at the community their victim is part of because they can no longer get to the individual a lot of stuff starts making much more sense.

This is one of the "Moms for Liberty" and this crusade seems to specifically be a tantrum over not being able to bully her (now adult) nonbinary kid into cisness. www.sacbee.com/news/local/a...

I'm going to keep saying this until it's rote practice: If you are in official connection with let alone in charge of an archive of data, if is your professional & moral responsibility to secure that archive, as a backup or otherwise, against just such an emergency, so we're not Hoping some kid did.

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned

Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.
