As someone who has had multiple MRIs, competent doctors don’t send you in for an MRI like it’s a blood pressure test.

These are very expensive magnet machines! Spinning one up is expensive! They have a reason for sending you there! Nothing this administration says is true!

A trans teacher at OU was specifically targeted by a student being groomed to be a Turning Point USA campus crusader.

So of course white cishet academics talk over trans people to say this is principally ideological and just what conservatives do, as if we are an issue and not people.

The essay reads like the letter Mac wrote to Chase Utley in its always sunny. She didn’t even cite the Bible. There are *zero* connections between demons and gender in scripture. If your essay boils down to just saying “nu uh” then insulting a group of people, you deserve to fail. Shut the fuck up

i’m genuinely so convinced all of this has been a planned operation by the student and her mother (who is commenting on this publicly, and associated closely with the republican party), and big far right propaganda account going all in on it. this is designed to oust trans people from public life

How do people not see that the entire OU essay thing is just an attempt by this girl and the Turning Point chapter to turn her into another Riley Gaines grifting on trying to push trans people out of society?
Here's what this is actually about, dumbass

I was running up to court earlier, but I should note that this was an opinion by Judge Fischer, a GWB appointee, and one of the other panelists was also a GWB appointee (Judge Smith). The third panelist was Judge Restrepo, an Obama appointee.

In college, I had to read the Department of Defense’s Law of War manual.

I kid you not when I tell you that firing at the shipwrecked is quite literally provided as an example of an illegal order.

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis.

They coined the term “useless eaters”.

They tested the gas chambers on us.

They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives.

That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous.

Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

We first note that hand-wringing about the decline in US college enrollments has mistakenly linked such declines to the price of four-year colleges.

But the decline is entirely driven by two-year community colleges (and by for-profit colleges). The four-year sector is the dog that didn't bark.

They should do a Law & Order episode that represents the nobility of modern journalism: a year after a serial cannibal is acquitted, a star journalist comes out with a hit book that features evidence and a full sneering confession.

To be clear, no quarter without warning AT SEA is worse and undstood to be bad for a VERY LONG TIME.
Ordering no quarter, as Hegseth effectively did, isn't a newfangled modern war crime. It was understood as a crime as far back as the Revolutionary War. Washington threatened to do reprisals over it. The bad guy in 'The Patriot' is (very loosely) based off a British officer who was notorious for it.

my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.
