The National Institutes of Health will partner with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid to create a database of Americans with autism, using insurance claims, medical records and smartwatch data.

Anyone have any advice on getting coworkers to remember & respect your pronouns? I wear a pronoun button every day, but that's had no difference... I've talked to people one on one... HR has been great and always gets it right, which I love. Any ideas I could give to our HR team?

extremely troubling context: along with RFK at the helm, the Trump admin is pushing to install urologist Brian Christine as assistant secretary of health at HHS -- a COVID conspiracist who has for years expressed his desire to "treat" trans kids' dysphoria with Catholic "pastoral care"

happy may day here is a painting I did a long time ago

Robert De Niro is expressing his love and support for his daughter Airyn De Niro, after she recently shared publicly for the first time that she is transgender. cnn.it/3EY1msu

Andrew Clayton, the man behind @foundryvtt.bsky.social, had some choice words for the use of AI in the TTRPG space. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

This is straight up nazi shit. The nazis published propaganda on Jewish crime. If this were blackcrimeuk or immigrantcrimeuk everyone would see it for the bigoted shit that it is.

To AI shills & capitalist institutions, writers are simultaneously not important enough to compensate while alive and so important once dead that their machine-ghosts must be resurrected to continue the work of profit-making. Vile.

There are so many levels of 'hell, no' to this. Most obvious among them - YOU ARE NOT LEARNING FROM AGATHA CHRISTIE! You are having some jumped-up scion of Eliza do a probably wildly inaccurate and useless Christie impression at you. It's yet another was to grift people with dreams and it sucks.

Tickies are up now for MOST shows - a few stragglers coming later this week. But this is the schedule — get your spot now at bughunterbug.com/collections/...

Now is a great time to be supportive of trans people you know, or those you don't. Actually, always is a great time to speak out against the goddamn lying ghouls trying to pretend trans people are some mysterious threat to anyone, and not just people trying to live their lives.

A message to our followers.

Today we’re launching Residential Schools: The Hidden Stories — a database that includes never-before-released documents and a series of stories based on that new information. Watch our reporter give her insights on the project and describe what she heard from a Halalt First Nation elder.

[mar. 31 2022] transgener carbunle i drew this for trans day of visibility back in 2022... felt topically relevant to repost it now #ffxiv #art #carbuncle

Tonight has been a nightmare of constant misgendering and the evening is just getting started.

All right, my retina is reattached, eyesight will make a full recovery - yeah, that all happened really quickly and out of nowhere, lol. How's everyone else?

Danielle Smith appearing on stage with this guy is a straight up betrayal of Canada. She is unfit to be Premier. #Canada #CanadaSky #cdnpoli #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #yyc #yeg

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

I hate that we've gotta constantly be like "after trans people they'll come for you, you know" to get cis people to care like ... after trans people after we're what

Perhaps ironically, the legislation of gender by politicians makes it clear that gender is a political construct, one which is conceptualized and enforced by those in positions of power, pursuant to their interests and desires.

For fun, I figured I'd get Gemini's input. Neither of these people are real.

I’d just like to let you all know that I’ll be taking a break from mental health to focus on my social media

Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever

Okay, time to announce it properly: Horrible Girls is an artbook filled with 54 horror-themed pinups inspired by retro comics and ads! I had SO MUCH fun with this project, I hope you enjoy it at least half as much as I did haha ✨ You can download the pdf here: ✨ keezyyoung.itch.io/horrible-girls ✨

I’m annoyed these adorable polish nerds who just wanna tell their depressed girlboss monster slayer story even have to address the gamergate grifters screeching about woke like it represents a credible argument

We get it. It doesn't make it any better but we get it. How the guy could ever run again after #Jan6 is an indictment of everything America has ever claimed to be

I have our ads set to block all mental health providers (because that's the only way it lets us block anything) to avoid promoting Better Help. I am so ethically grossed out by their model. It hurts practitioners, it hurts clients, it is making the world worse.

In an attempt to write another serviceable GM guide, I have instead resorted to writing down all the gamesmastering styles I can think of and letting people come to their own conclusions

I just heard the news that Activision has added AI-generated art, cosmetics, and unlockables in COD BO6. What the hell Activision?! You're disrespecting the real artists and voice actors! AI is NOT gonna solve everything! This is why the voice actors and performers are on strike because of the AI!

In case any of my fellow creatives also needed this reminder:

#StarTrekLowerDecks ends next week. It doesn't need to end. Of the new #StarTrek shows, Lower Decks is the one that should run infinitum. The cast and creators love the show. Actors ages don't matter. No limits to story. Lower Decks ought to be #TheSimpsons of #StarTrek. It should be endless.
