The entire Tavistock scandal was over 8 complaints. They've fucked the entirety of trans and non binary peoples, because of 8 complaints, all of which have not materialised into anything as far as I can tell.

The other week, we went to do a final clean out my late MiL’s house and a non-binary friend came out to help us get rid of heavy garden stuff.
Several days later, our toddler goes “I have a question about Alex”

I was like oh dear here we go but then the question was “why didn’t they have a table?”
always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

When I lived in France we had a sweet old neighbor lady who would spit every time she passed a certain house. Eventually, her daughter explained to me that the home belonged to a man who’d collaborated with the Nazis 60 YEARS AGO. May these ICE goons face a similarly lonely future.

Today is the 52nd anniversary of the release of "Blazing Saddles," the plot of which involves business and political interests leveraging ordinary people's bigotry in an effort to obtain power and financial gain.

People like to say that that movie couldn't be made today. Shit, we're living it.

Truly the best part about the sport is that when the opposing team looks like four high school teachers who are a month away from retirement, you know for certain you're about to get fucking annihilated.
i don't like how athletic-looking the curlers are these days tbh.

I had a similar recent-ish conversation with an older writer/fan. I assure you people are still flirting and/or hooking up at conventions. Requiring consent is not a problem when all the parties actually, you know, consent. Also, if your flirting looks like harassment, the problem is you.
I was on a panel once, about flirting; one of the panelists; who was a fan in the 60s, was explaining that These were the "good old days and nobody minded, because it was all in good fun, and today you can't do anything" and she missed that

The rest of us were just agog at the levels of disconnect
Folks outside SF/F don't know that Asimov was a sexual harasser because while he was alive fandom thought it was cute (up to and including Asimov being invited to give a lecture on "The Power of Positive Posterior Pinching" at Worldcon, which he, wisely, declined).

“I do not think that 50 year old men should be having sex with 16 year old girls. But “
This level of apologia (from Megan McArdle in a podcast with Josh Barro and Ross Douthat) is fucking appalling. Idk what else there is to say.

And remember, there's no convincing evidence he is guilty.
Something very entertaining about Luigi is how cartoonishly good-looking he is, not like an A-lister or a model, but in how every image of his face looks like someone designed and drew it to conjure a specific emotion. Incredibly funny.
