I DETEST the relentless pressure put upon transgender people to be made to feel as if they are a problem and as if their rights are holding up
everything and everyone else. Leave them the hell alone!

Es geht niemals um Meinungsfreiheit. Es geht immer um Widerspruchsfreiheit - und die Bestrafung aller, die anderer Meinung sind. Faschismus lebt von Konformität. Pluralismus ist der Feind.
Die rechtsextreme AfD beklagt sich beim US-Regime, dass in Deutschland die Meinungsfreiheit angeblich so eingeschränkt werde, aber leitet dann ein Ordnungsverfahren gegen eines ihrer eigenen Mitglieder ein, nur weil der es wagte, dem Faschisten Höcke zu widersprechen! Kannst du dir nicht ausdenken.

At a certain point you should know if you want to hire someone. Its your job to figure that out and idk why strangers looking for work need to be punished for someone not being good at their job.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

Absolutely abhorrent behavior from Valve. Not surprising given their libertarian stance, but shameful and disappointing nonetheless.
Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam
This is where we're at now.

While I'm happy with my Fractal Design Ridge SFF case for my living room PC, I can't help but love the XiKii Industry cases. They’re expensive and often tailor-made for specific hardware, sometimes to an impractical degree, but I feel like they have a certain ’90s industrial vibe and I love it.

I can’t get over how Barbie succeeded because it offered tangible ways for women and girls to celebrate each other (and dress up and go to the movies together) but studios thought it worked because it’s about toys so now they’re making like Bananagrams the movie

People who record others without their consent should be ostracized. And saying, “but it’s legal!” means nothing. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s ethical
It’s an invasion of privacy.

Seeing him in a movie always put a smile on my face. What a legend.
Udo Kier has passed away at 81. A singular screen presence, Kier had a long history in the horror genre, starring in films including Mark of the Devil, Andy Warhol's Frankenstein, Blood for Dracula, Blade, Feardotcom, Rob Zombie's Halloween, and Dario Argento's Mother of Tears.

There's a lot to say about the Roblox CEO interview, and the right place to start is definitely his answers on children's safety, because that's kind of the fire that is hottest and closest.
However, I have to also say, the polymarket stuff is real 'summation of our neoliberal dumpster fire' shit.

As an avid podcast listener, I love it when the episode I listen to comes to a screeching halt because the hosts decide to watch an AI slop video and don’t even do a good job describing it. Bonus points for not even having the episode up on YouTube by the time I listen to it.

literally nobody else in the entire retro computing community I've seen so far has done this, and this is a VERY conservative group. fuck John Carmack.
I just learned that John Carmack misgendered and deadnamed Rebecca Heineman in his "tribute" over on Twitter. He probably thinks it's okay when talking pre-transition days, but FYI, most trans people hate that. Worse, he never calls her "she," switching to "they" for recent memories. Fuck that guy.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.
