us starmer is optimistic. if that idiot stumbles into the white house despite being a charmless, personally disgusting californian - didn't stop Nixon but I expect to stop him - i 100% expect the inaugural address to be about how very easy it would be for him to forgive us in exchange for worship

if i'm being 100% here, part of the impetus for generative AI as a form of bulk writing is that the industry seems to view actually thinning out career or audience opportunities in the creative arts as an overt social good; their slop is worth more if no one else can do anything

Brian Peppers died in 2012. Donald Trump began posting about Barack Obama's birth certificate, functionally beginning the final stage of his political and media career, in 2011. Hell is, in most Christian denominations, the turning away of divine grace from the soul by that soul's wickedness

at least Esau got a hot meal for his birthright. The devil these people know - the scout leaders, the youth pastors, the broken stair in the extended family, the parish priests endlessly shuffled from diocese to diocese - offers them nothing. And they'll hand their kids to them for what

You can't separate this from the Atlantic article claiming their are too many students with disabilities. It's a moral panic meant to push out young people with disabilities from access to resources and to reify ableist bigotry. It's exactly what they did to trans people.

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

As a disabled person:
— Increase accommodation availability to the maximum possible degree
— For the few accommodations where illegitimate demand will match supply unless restrictions are enforced, gatekeepers should have no allow/deny authority beyond disabled people and secondarily their doctors
— Increase accommodation availability to the maximum possible degree

Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.
