This cis person won’t vote for Newsom. We can do so much better.
USian trans people aren't telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom to cause you distress and despair.

USian trans people are telling you they won't vote for Gavin Newsom so you don't vote for his transphobic ass in the primaries.

They are giving you actionable information.

JC is showing what it looks like to stand with residents—protecting due process, rejecting fear, and honoring the people who built this city. Every municipality in NJ should adopt these protections and ensure all New Jerseyans are safe, informed, and respected.

The little cat steps on the wizard's head, waking him up. He goes to make waffles with raspberry jam and put some fish out for the little cat. As he makes tea, the air fills with the smell of autumn leaves. After breakfast, he unpacks his reagent delivery and puts the new reagents away.

The wizard sleeps well. The little cat appears to be reading a grimoire in the library.

The wizard is snuggled into his bed, reading a book about typography. The little cat is curled up above the covers, by his feet.

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

The little cat steps on the wizard's stomach, waking him up. He goes to make waffles with watermelon marmalade and put some fish out for the little cat. As he makes tea, the air fills with the smell of lime rind. He opens the packages and letters the dragon brought over breakfast.

Our male walrus, Balzak, tipped the scales at 3,000 pounds! And honestly? ICONIC. 🎉 Naturally, this massive milestone called for a massive celebration: seafood ice cake, a cheering care team, and 3,000 pounds of pure walrus excellence. 💙

We cannot continue to bankroll a corrupt immigration apparatus that treats people with such cruelty and disregard for the law.

Americans are risking their own safety to say this must stop. They’re demanding action, and there is no excuse for the Senate not to stand with them.

Will SOMEONE in this godforsaken Congress actually take their oath to protect and defend the United States constitution with the same degree of seriousness as every person in Minneapolis?

What do you mean "create a code of conduct" there already IS a code of conduct that prohibits murdering people who are not using violent force. It is called the US Constitution.

If that's not binding ICE, neither will your agreement.

ICE are running around in the streets using facial recognition on random people and telling anyone filming them they're a domestic terrorist and Democrats solution is to equip every ICE agent with their very own body-worn surveillance camera

Meet the yellow watchman gobies! 👀🐠 Watchman gobies are named for a reason. With their big eyes and bold personalities, these little reef guardians spend their days perched near burrows, keeping a careful lookout and darting for cover when needed.

Do you? Do you really want to hear what the AI might think? Do you actually believe it's going to give you an unbiased response? The last few months have not been kind to this tip. Anything so far about estimating the trust of data you didn't already know? Is there heck...

People do need to learn how to ask good questions. That’s a teachable, learnable skill.

I spent 4 years at college doing this, earning a bachelor’s in liberal arts. I learned how to interrogate a text and how to discuss it with my fellow learners.

Guess you could ask the probability machine tho. 🤷‍♀️
Next bit is about learning new skills for a role transition. Actually, a bit better! Although questionable advice, but we'll overlook that for now.

I can't help feeling that people needing training on "how to ask a question properly" is indicative of something broader going on here.

Being specific? Adding context? Including relevant information? Would you not do this all the time, whoever you are?

Now, whether GenAI can actually be helpful to you isn't related, but aren't these just... things people do?

The last section (please, please) is getting help with interview prep.
