The question is always "what if a kid is wrongfully transitioned" and never "what if a trans kid is denied the ability to transition and endures years of excruciating dysphoria and has to have multiple surgeries later in life to fix the issues caused by going through the wrong puberty."

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

I would never argue all self-publishing is bad, but I realized years ago that Amazon designed KDP for exactly this purpose: to incentivize people to adopt new tech to churn out more slop titles in a clear attack on the publishing industry with little regard for readers or even the writers themselves

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.

the perennial "is this a good replacement for twitter / can it become as big as twitter" discussion is so confused. hominids became bipedal about 7 million years ago. for most of the time since we did not have microblogging. it's not a necessity it's a habit, if it all goes away that's fine

In a sane world, Kelowna’s vacancy rate hitting almost 7% would have lead to an even further drop in rent prices. Instead, it’s just a gambit to let Airbnb further encroach into the community:

There's lots to say about what the Liberal government plans to do with the Canada Post but I'll be a broken record and say postal services shouldn't need to "break even." Cutting jobs and services is to squander the incredible reach Canada Post has in our country:

Something I've realized since folks started bailing on Spotify is a new version of the tired "no ethical consumption…" refrain in the form of "well all music streaming is bad." Yes! Sure! But you can still opt not to give your money to the one that is demonstrably the worst of all!
