Frankly, if you approached any cisgender woman playing roller derby and informed her that men have a biological advantage over her, you'd be laughed out of the room so loudly you'd have to go to the next county over before you'd stop hearing it.

Cisgender women may lose their right to form sports leagues with transgender women.

I don't know that I ever thought I'd see a cis politician say Sylvia and Marsha's names, let alone one advocate for continuting the work they were part of. Thank you, Zohran, maybe a world that doesn't want us dead is possible?

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The debate.

A small dog tells a woman, "Experiencing the world is beautiful and vivid for me. I smell shit piss and vomit and I love it. You are controlled by ceaseless disgust. You're stunted. Haha."

The woman replies, "Yes. But I can read novels."

It's really funny that The Art of War is treated as this like alpha male book when it's clearly meant to be read by ancient Chinese failsons because it's all "please don't forget you have to feed your troops" and "if someone asks if you're going to attack them consider lying about it"

Although this week’s #BehindTheBots star is best known for playing Telly Monster and Snuffleupagus on "Sesame Street", MARTY ROBINSON also lent a hand on the fifth season of "The Transformers" as the principal puppeteer for the giant live-action Optimus Prime!

I genuinely cannot express how vital it is that you train yourself to recognize AI-generated images and videos for your own good because none of this is going away and many, many people are counting on you to fall for their shit

I am the change I want to see in the world!

Carmella Creeper, a green skinned goth girl thing with a skull t shirt, striped black hair, striped pants, headphones, giant soled shoes, and fishnet sleeves who is clearly trans, and her green snake, who is holding a small trans pride flag in their mouth

"The consumers won't care if it's AI."

Ah yes, horror fans -- y'know, the people who famously ask "Are the FX Practical?!" about literally every movie -- definitely won't care that you're feeding them prompt-generated slop. Good call there.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

remembering the time my manager said a corny joke on a work call, and no one laughed, and I tried to reassure him by saying, “oh, hey, it’s ok. sometimes, I make jokes that aren’t funny, too.” and everyone laughed really hard at that.
