1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

If you use Gmail, do this now.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

When your property management company sends people out without telling you and they don't even knock on the door and you see someone in the backyard.

As someone who has no horse in the race but keeps seeing the discourse.

Maybe instead of being negative & talking crap y'all can create an actual scale/rule of what is indie, what indie should mean, or if indie is even the word anymore.

We have enough negativity out there y'all.

Be better.

Day Three of being laid off:

Finally started up Red Dead Redemption with the intention of actually playing the entire game and not only a couple hours and dip out.

Also watched all of Gen V Season 2, and I'm nearly there to completely stop streaming altogether. The ads are so bad these days.

Going from Sideways to Paradise Killer was a SHIFT. (I realized I still haven't opened my vinyl of Umurangi Generation and felt it should be for celebratory reasons when I do)

But damn, these jams, they're moving me.

Y'all, how does George of the Jungle only have a 50%~ on RT?

This is both the template and still gold standard for meta comedy.

Watch this with an open mind and you'll be sure to have a ton of fun.

Release the Epstein Files.

#EpsteinFiles
A direct email exchange from 2011 between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, just released by House Oversight Committee Democrats.

Just finished watching "The Whale".
November 11, 2025 at 3:53 AM
It's been one of those days.

Where all that you've seen the past year & had no release/outlet for cause it just never stops & keeps piling up. Then something that happens all the time happened again & it's the bird landing on the pile that made it all fall down.

So I'm finally watching The Whale.

Good on Eurogamer for speaking out.

I'd give it zero stars as it sets a dangerous and extremely anti-artist precedent, but still on the right track highlighting the issue while also reviewing the game.

#BanGenAI
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

Al & I are finally watching "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri"...

I could have SWORE this movie came out in the last four years, not EIGHT years ago.

1. On Tuesday Night, Democrats won elections nationwide in a stunning rebuke of anti-transgender politics.

From Virginia to New Jersey to New York and beyond, anti-trans candidates fell left and right after spending tons of time and money campaigning on hate.

Today is an absolute rebuke of anti-transgender politics, and a real sign that the anti-trans panic is fading.

From VA Gov to Loudoun County to New Jersey to New York City and Pennsylvania, anti-trans Republicans are falling left and right.
Democrats are currently ahead in 63 (!!!) races in the Virginia House of Delegates.

If this holds, it would be one of the largest state legislature swings in the last 4 years.

Its an absolute bloodbath for anti-trans Republicans.

It's not just Spotify, but ICE recruitment ads are popping up on YouTube as well. If you're boycotting one for a reason, boycott them all for that same reason.
