Finally an introduction post for this account! I'm a trans woman named Cassie, who is currently getting her PhD in Sociology! I do research in environmental sociology (focusing mainly on climate change and conservatism), but I'm also interested in topics like LGBT+ and indigenous issues!

Gender nonconforming gay guy uses the men's bathroom and it's confronted and threatened.
It was never about the bathrooms, privacy, or safety, they simply don't want queer people to exist.

Conservatives continue to insist that every academic department should want to hire them specifically, even if what they do has nothing to do with what a department specializes in. The entitlement would be hilarious if it wasn’t actively harming departments around the country
The underlying essay is even more batshit. It is "political discrimination" for departments to identify areas of specialization they are hiring for. They should just announce "academic job." Never mind what the teaching or research needs are for the Department. Then hire the person with the best SAT

THREAD. Every year, I tell the story of Ezell Gilbert. It's the story of one of the most remarkable cases in U.S. history, and you’ve probably never heard of it. The story of what the U.S. government did to him is vital for understanding the current moment we are in.

The demonization of Somalis is no different than the demonization of Haitians before the election. It's a political attack and has to be actively fought—not through half-measures or expressions of tepid concern but by demanding decency from society and respect for all of humanity.

All the yearning you see white liberals do on here about returning to the days of George Bush just makes me think of the term ‘quiet violence.’ Some don’t care who the status quo is harming as long as it is done with ‘decorum’ and in a way that doesn’t intrude on their eyes and ears

This is an outrageous abdication of journalistic duty. Grok's apology was prompted by a human, as was its equally vehement self-defense. People are willingly hurling themselves into the AI trashbin at the bidding of oligarchs who will happily remove them from their jobs.

Grok says safeguard lapses led to images of 'minors in minimal clothing' on X
Elon Musk's xAI artificial intelligence chatbot Grok said on Friday lapses in safeguards had resulted in "images depicting minors in minimal clothing" on social media platform X and that improvements were being made to prevent this.

It’s generally assumed that “Moby-Dick” has a canonical start date in December 1841, so there’s a good chance that Ishmael has entered the AME Zion church (then on South Second St, three blocks from the water) and the preacher he sees is Frederick Douglass. 🐋

more on the nightmarish situation on X where users are apparently generating non consenting pirnographic imagery & sexual images of minors (csam) using xAI’s Grok. Musk merged xAI and X (fka twitter) last year.

Time for a serious conversation about handing out these participation-trophy bids like candy. Bad TV. Safety issue. I just feel so bad for Ohio State. They should have their own junior tournament
