Every time I read something like this (and there's nothing *quite* like this essay) I'm saddened by how unnecessary it all is. One can, at any moment, simply stop investing identity in the White Race. *Right now* one can simply commit to women's freedom, equality, bodily autonomy, & sexual agency.

Rome’s 2nd emperor, Tiberius, wasnt related to 1st emperor, Augustus. Despite this inconvenience, his portraits share remarkable physiognomic similarity to Augustus. AI-facial recognition would likely suggest close kinship. Tiberius then, like Elizabeth I, figured out the secret of portraits... /6

I know some people call that aisle where the special buys are kept the Aldi Aisle of Shame. I usually resist that kind of thing. But just now I remembered how, a couple of weeks ago, I was in that aisle, and found pouches of pepperoni pizza soup.

Looking forward to giving this at least one listen. Independent podcast, killer content, strong POV, high standards.

Gerontocracy is how I still occasionally see people talk about AOC being too "young" and "inexperienced" for a presidential run despite the fact that in 2028 she will be 39 and have spent a quarter of that life as a US congressional member sitting on 5 different oversight and finance committees.

If you're a writer, write "I waited" without saying it. Mine: I turned the last page, and stood to look down the rails. Still nothing. I returned to the bench, and opened the next volume.

wow — the preprint host, arxiv, is banning authors for a year if they submit papers with hallucinated citations 🤖

@scholten.house.gov How can you possibly justify this?

Wait! Something feels off. Oh, right! Holy shit, I almost forgot!

Hey Bluesky, could you help me signal boost my Big Cartel shop? Jeremy Creatures are designed and hand-sewed by me, and they take many hours to create. Four of the creatures pictured are currently available in my shop. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Did Voyager's EMH ever encounter Data (or siblings)?

We all know where America First 🇺🇸 came from.

Weird not to see real estate expansion projects, chatbot TAs, or ed-tech privatization on this report of what makes university experience valuable to students

More excited now than before.

Our car is going to cost close to £500 to repair, a month before we get married, so I'm once again asking people to buy some games. For once I'm not putting them on sale because I'm tired, frankly loottheroom.itch.io

Wow upon wow.

If Terraforming Mars appeals to you but you don’t want to support people with a public record of transphobia, may I suggest a much better game made by much better people Daybreak is incredible.

"All of my old friends look like doctors. All of his look like you." Kirk get a lot of undeserved guff for being a horn dog and a wild card, but I'm starting to feel McCoy probably deserves a closer look. We are in the midst of a lazy TOS rewatch.

A heartbreaking story about Kenneth Grahame (of Wind in the Willows fame)’s son. As a child I loved WithW but Toad’s recklessness and manic energy always made me very uncomfortable. I later assumed he was patterned after Grahame’s alcoholic, neglectful father—another layer to the this story.

Just in case you though we weren't yet living in a cyberpunk dystopia.

If you’ve been wanting to design your own TTRPG, here’s my advice for you. Its honestly pretty simple. (I almost want to start a « Make it small. Make it fun. Make it for you » game jam based in this idea

It's almost like obsessive transphobia is the preserve of a tiny minority who are electorally insignificant - but the message of signposting transphobia or trans solidarity is received by a far larger group of the electorate who actually like their queer and trans friends and family.

It’s rough out here, we all know it. I’d be happy for sales to pick up, but also if anyone has a ~10-hour-a-week gig doing graphic design, writing or publishing/production work… let’s talk?!
