I am not sure I had seen Aftyn Behn’s first name until a few moments ago, but when I did, you can be sure I misread it and did a double take.

I feel like I have finally made it! Someone — undoubtedly with help from their AI pal — has cited a paper of mine that has the epistemological disadvantage of not existing.

Reference [3] *is* real, but it sure isn’t cited very well.

That Viral Essay Scandal is (SURPRISE!) Actually About Trans People
A shoddy Oklahoma University essay went viral. Cis people think this is about conservatives whining for better grades. Trans people see a planned attack on a trans academic.

every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

Congratulations to Omar El Akkad for winning the National Book Award for nonfiction. “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This” is searing, and if you haven’t read it, you should.
But as he says in his acceptance speech, it is hard to feel celebratory about this well-deserved honor.

On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor the trans people lost to violence in the U.S. this year.
Widespread poverty, homelessness, and discrimination makes trans people 4x more likely to experience violence than the average person.
We shouldn’t have to live in fear to be who we are.
