BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

@nwslsoccer.com you failed here. You need to immediately stipulate in your charter contracts that you won’t accept flights from these airlines. This is not what my money as a fan will be used for. @gothamfc.bsky.social @washingtonspirit.com

@nwslsoccer.com, I appalled that you would use Avelo Airlines.

I am a NWSL team season ticket holder and this is not what I want my money to support. It is not in keeping with the team or what I understand the league's values to be.

The thing about legislatures is that you don't actually have a boss, you can run the place if you just put together enough friends, you don't need need a majority or even a majority of the majority!
I think one thing that is remarkable over the last half decade is how moderates could step and run the show but are too dumb/convinced of their own helplessness to actually do it

Good point about why AI isn't being designed to replace domestic chores or tedious manual labor. The tech billionaires pushing this stuff into art and relationships have servants; they don't need robots.

This is yet another way to keep academia the realm of the wealthy. Yes, $70k is above the median income of the country, but typically those who've gotten a PhD have foregone *years* of wage earning. They have often subsided on stipends, adjunct wages, and low-wage PT jobs for 5-10 years.+
This is TYPICAL across much of the country. Ivy League starting PhD salary was 70k just 7 yrs ago, not sure it's gone up much if at all.
I was offered $56k for a job that requires a PhD plus experience not too long ago. People in my life didn’t believe me when I told them about it.

If you can't afford to buy books, USE THE LIBRARY.

Several public libraries in blue cities offer library card to people who live elsewhere because of book bans.

You can check out the ebook on Libby, not steal from the author and support a public library.

Win-win-win
"Fuck Amazon, it's not like they aren't screwing over authors!!"

Amazon pays me 70% royalties on ebooks. You downloading my shit from Anna's pays me *nothing* you dumbass little shit.

"I'm so poor" - And? A bunch of you are steal from my poor friends who are struggling to buy groceries, too.

if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

Media literacy is down, so to be clear, when the WSJ writes “Ultimately, the fact pattern Meta relies on to meet its conflicting objectives strains credibility” about your accounting practices and runs an accompanying flowchart, that is the equivalent of a 500-foot neon sign reading “FRAUD”
This feels like one of those stories you're going to look at a year from now and say to yourself, "Why didn't I move more of my portfolio into cash?" **

I'd never heard of this site until tonight. Both my books are on there. Did you know my publisher offers one of three lowest royalty rates in the entire industry? And that I didn't get an advance? Literally all I make is from royalties. Royalties I don't earn when you pirate my book.
I posted a buy link here to "A Magical Inheritance" a few days ago, and 24 of you immediately went to Anna's Archives and fucking stole it from me.

Yes, stole it.

I do not get paid for your download there because YOU ARE STEALING FROM ME.

Holiday reminders:

- If someone has a new relationship, they’ll tell you. You don’t need to ask.
- If someone is pregnant and they want to share that, they’ll tell you. You don’t need to ask.
- If someone’s body has changed, they’re aware. You don’t need to point it out.

It's not social media or supposed attacks on masculinity that are causing the (largely made up) " male loneliness epidemic."

It's that some men choose to be people who nobody in their right mind would want to be around.

I 100% agree and would add that if you are hosting a holiday event and you do NOT have something festive, creative and delicious for your guests to drink without alcohol in it, you are actually an asshole

don't make them drink tap water while everyone else has bespoke cocktails!
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.
