"if you want to play the harry potter game you should pirate it instead" or, and hear me out, you could have some goddamn self respect and play any one of the near-infinite number of other games that exist instead. but what do I know? I'm just an attractive genius who's better than you.

Considering the way these companies move who is maintaining independent verification of these documents ?
Gemini’s ability to read handwritten archival documents has importance beyond the humanities. It opens new frontiers for scientific research and collaboration with the humanities.

I mean do you love ur kid or do u love ur kid’s gender. All these stupid reveal parties have done is encourage parents to fall in love with some sort of gender fantasy rather than the child and that has done nothing but bad things for the world.
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

At some point we are going to have to deal with the uncomfortable truth that there is a genuine lack of research into the impact of environmental exposures on chronic disease, and that has been a major factor driving formerly reasonable people into the antivax, raw milk, beef tallow wellness cults.

New ideas about chronic illness could revolutionize treatment, if we take the research seriously.

the fascists though get that straightness is first and foremost about power - and the statement "it's gay to like women" is not about attraction, it is about treating them as human beings. not even equals, they mean it in the same way a person likes animals

which explains all the bestiality too tbh

the reactionaries get it because they ultimately defined it, but liberals have deluded themselves into thinking being straight means purely that you're attracted to the opposite sex. they cannot conceive of the systems they are trapped in, to them it is immutable universal law like gravity.

"haha, they're so absurd. they think it is gay to be attracted to women" is the worst gotcha liberals have because without unpacking the biases they have about the world they're incapable of understanding how deeply wrong they are about the nature of straightness.
I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children.

They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.
"Everything straight is actually gay" is my favourite kind of ragebait posts by these morons.

When we talk about reparations for slavery, others say, “It’s complicated.”

Well, this is not complicated.

The residents- and everyone affected by this deserves to be offered reparations and an apology.

And that land developed for and with that community.

If not, what’s the lesson learned here?
UPDATE — For those who want to help, there’s now a way to donate directly to the 7500 South Shore Tenants Union to help with emergency relocation costs as residents “vacate in one of the snowiest winters in Chicago’s history.”

People absolutely care... the ones with low vision who can read Calibri font much more easily than Times New Roman.

This isn't just "oh, it's prettier" it's a deliberate jab at people with a particular disability.
This is such dumb bitch behavior. I'm sorry. Just say you think Times New Roman is prettier. It's a font. You don't have to lie. No one cares. (I like Century Gothic.)
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move
