Genuinely believe that cops have become a service elite—a hereditary caste w special legal priviliges and status—like samurai or boyars or Qing bannermen
Ordinary regular poor people trying to live their lives and raise their children: Can we get a $25k loan from the city to use as a down payment on a home in a nice neighborhood?
Governments: Absolutely not
Cops making about $75k/yr base: Can we
Governments: YES AND YOUR LOAN IS FULLY FORGIVABLE

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

For years, people have lodged complaints about Tesla’s doors. With no official statistics, Bloomberg did its own analysis on the number of fatal crashes in the US in which door functionality played a role. Read more: bloom.bg/49tm0fF

this was part of a plan the organized far right made to begin their attack on taking out trans people out of academia, what a disgrace of a university to give in to this
A graduate teaching assistant who gave a University of Oklahoma student a failing grade on a psychology essay will no longer be teaching at the university
Graduate instructor who gave failing grade to Samantha Fulnecky no longer teaching at OU

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

This was a perfect opportunity to take a principled stance. Instead we have a weak moderate position based not on principles, but on not offending anyone who builds their career on plagiarism and chicanery.
For shame, @sfwa.org.

I'm very disappointed in SFWA's soft stance on LLM and the Nebulas. Any use of LLM, disclosed or not, should not be awards eligible. It's plagiarism and crap, period

Attacks on feminism are similar to attacks on vaccines. We begin to take for granted a world where women have rights and most children live to see adulthood, and then, over time, we begin to forget, neglect, and (now) reject the movements and innovations that brought us here.
Until the mid-1970’s, a man could not be convicted of rape in New York State based solely on the testimony of the woman he raped. A second witness was required because the female rape victim was deemed unreliable.
Feminism has not failed women.
