You know that’s not true

Oh I thought it was just a couple random people getting squicky about trans ladies using the ladies room? So you admit that it’s an organized effort. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone move their goalposts in the wrong direction before lmao

Outlawing gender affirming medical care has zero impact on sports, you willful liar. No, the truth is that the people behind this movement are targeting trans people because they’re the most convenient vulnerable group to rally hateful bigots around right now. Gay people are acceptable, the dog caught the car on the abortion “debate,” and they need a new boogeyman to leverage to whip votes

There only being that one playbook is the exact reason why I have a patch on my backpack that reads: “Evil is boring”

Having your literal survival threatened has a way of focusing the attention. We’re already reaching the point where people can’t afford the bread and circuses.

He followed Glenn Greenwald down the “I feel like people don’t respect my leftism enough, so I’m gonna join the alt-right” path

We have to pay for the services we use somehow. I’d rather it be cash than the details of my entire life. But the money to operate those services has to come from somewhere

The secret ingredient is ✨🌈 misogyny ✨🌈

Stop lying. The massive, coordinated effort to outlaw gender affirming medical care is so much more than “a couple people feel squicky about trans ladies using the ladies room.”

benefits and protections generally reserved for females

Omfg, please leave right now

Agreed wholeheartedly. That said, Oppenheimer is officially the only biopic I’ve ever watched twice and will definitely watch again someday. Which makes it my favorite biopic, for whatever that is worth about a genre that I loathe.

Lol 10-20 years. AGI is a fantasy.

Maybe let’s try focusing on content and not personal characteristics of the presenters:

I’m way more annoyed by that terrible echoey microphone

You have to wonder if we aren’t just confirming what the Great Filter is. There may not be any space faring civilizations.

He’s not 100% wrong about the H1B being indentured servitude. By many accounts, the only employees Twitter was able to retain were those here on H1B, which doesn’t allow them to change employers without renewing their visa status. A good friend of mine was stuck in a bad employment situation because she was here on H1B. Employers definitely exploit that visa status, pretending that paying the visa processing fees gives them the right to abuse the employee.

But heaven forbid we just reform it to give the H1B visa holder greater employment rights and more freedom to switch jobs easily. Never forget that “meritocracy” is always code for rich. Those who can afford the best schools, the best tutors, who have the best social connections to achieve in their careers. A “meritocratic” system absolutely would not be more fair.

No, you’re actually wrong on this account. Grooming is definitionally the emotional manipulation that is performed specifically in order to get away with sexually abusing a child. One example of this kind of grooming involves doing illicit non-sexual activities with a child in order to seem like a “fun adult” who “let’s them get away with bad things” and to get the child to practice “keeping this our secret” so that when the direct sexual abuse starts, the child is already in the habit of hiding illicit activity from other adults.

“Women are specifically stating that the direct reason they’re choosing to delay pregnancy is the fall of Roe creating emergency health concerns.”

“I dunno, are you sure you can believe what women say? Did you check the “real” data?”

“The truth is you love censorship, and so does everyone else. The only question is whether you’re ready to admit it.”

YEP. Same. It’s always entertaining at work to watch a colleague who’s never heard my accent before hear me speak to a patient from Appalachia or the south

For the record, my grandmother with actual Alzheimer’s continued to ace the MoCA tests long after we had taken her keys and checkbook away. Not all mental deficits are revealed by those tests.

This 100% was the entire goal of the Citizens United ruling.
