It's very easy for me to get angry all over again about anti-trans detransitioners.
"Doctors told me this treatment would help, but it didn't!"
Do you know how many anti-depressants and other medications doctors gave me? How many diagnoses? All medical treatment has a guesswork aspect, are you 5?

It took a hot minute, but I can finally share my new paper on evidentiary pragmatism in transgender health care!
In it, I propose a new principle for evaluating scientific evidence based on the best reasonably achievable evidence, avoiding the ‘catch-22’ where trans care can never be justified.

Hey remember the shooting in Minneapolis that happened between Renee Good and Alexi Pretti, the guy they claimed was shot by an agent after he had attacked that agent with a shovel? I know it's hard to believe but the agents' story fell apart and charges were dropped. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/u...

I don't have much trouble searching for INFORMATION on Google. Like, I can still do research just as easily as I could five, ten years ago, as long as I ignore the "AI Overview." What I'm struggling with now is images, especially GIFs.

The complete refusal from the Department of Justice and FBI to investigate the allegations in the Epstein Files and made by Epstein survivors is also proof of what victims everywhere go through every day when authority figures refuse to do anything about what happened to them

I cannot say this strongly enough: do not, under any circumstances, give your ID (or even pictures of your face) to Discord. Ever. Really, to any corporation. They don't need it. They will only use it to harm you in some way, or pass it along to people who will harm you.
Discord lied.
they’re now sending scanned IDs to persona, a third party company.
“facial scans will never leave your device” -discord lmao.

LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER NOISE
I understand why people are exhausted by AI hype, and why those of us squarely in the corner of "human dignity uber alles" see AI doomerism as self-serving hype, but I *really* think people on the left broadly need to start thinking seriously about the possibiltiy of the hype being...true.

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Kid Rock's dad owned multiple car dealerships and he grew up in the suburbs of Detroit. Bad Bunny went from bagging groceries and recording his songs in his room to winning multiple Grammys. Which one is the better encapsulation of hard work and the American Dream?
