Both of the Dem senators from New York are on here -- Gillibrand and Schumer FUCK YOU, find new jobs you fucking sleazeball motherfuckers -- you're fucking done.
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

My grandmother was Canadian. Canada passed a law two days ago that, if I’m understanding it correctly, lets me claim citizenship.

This guy, Sergio, has been doing tons of experiments with "AI actors" recently.
The results are predictable and terrible. Are people still talking about Tilly Norwood and personalised movies?

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

I want to highlight that last paragraph - Lee experiencing her character's pain herself and not inflicting it on other people is actual Method acting. That's why she's great. People like Jared Leto, who use the Method to justify bad behavior, are selfish and are doing it wrong.
