Still not a peep on the things Mamdani can do for trans youth after hospital closures. No activation of H+H to take patients. Trans patients are a rounding error for the $10B program. No movement on human rights complaints. No promise to restore care. Rarely have I been so disappointed.

The impacts of Trump's attacks on science can be found in every nook and cranny of the discovery pipeline. This chart from @joshuasweitz.bsky.social shows that even with a funding INCREASE in 2026, LESS SCIENCE is being funded. That means fewer cures and treatments. #standupforscience

I’ve started sayin “He’s wearing a wire!” when I see these glasses. One man overheard and pulled them off. 😭😭😭

I keep thinking about how working class people will suffer so much if the price of gas spikes and the government continues to spend $1B/day on international conflict (plus ICE's budget for immigration raids) instead of education, research, international aid, clean energy, and healthcare

Literally as I’m arguing with someone about whether AI companies are misleading people into believing their technology possesses God-like super-intelligence I see this monstrosity

I know healing from a broken foot takes time but it’s so frustratingly slow.

So a lot of the hype around LLMs and a lot of the userbase just fundamentally misunderstands what the technology is and what it’s capable of, instead treating it like a mythical supernatural or religious being. The industry openly encourages this delusion for profit

I am trapped in a biscuit factory

New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...

the LLMs can be defeated by POETRY, its only fair the ai can be defeated by ART

Coping with the state of the world by reading a book about aliens kidnapping a glam rock band forcing them to sing to prove humanity is worth saving

I know that I am not the first or even the 50th person to make this observation, but genuinely, I don’t think the founders of this country could’ve ever imagined a future where Congress would so readily abandon it’s own power in service of a tyrant.

Book bans disproportionately affect LGBTQ books, authors, and readers. The Federal Book Ban bill uses funding threats to pressure schools to remove books. Federal control over ideas is among the worst of all ideas. Sign @everylibrary.bsky.social's petition to defend the freedom to read.

Just a lil baby

Eventually we all live long enough to watch people that were cool in our youth turn into creepy old weirdos.

alecto will come out only after the ressurection happens irl, furtunately it seems more likely every day

Very excited for this book. The first one was delicious.

Feeling decreasing hope every day about the possibility that we are going to see Alecto the ninth in 2026

The world is a mess. I’m hoping one more kitten video, of a young Professor Maxwell, will help. We could all use some of his positive energy. #Meow. 🐱

and now my nutter butters don’t have any nutter butter. this could break me

So I set up a humidifier and it’s kinda amazing how much positive impact it is having. I see why people like these.

Steven Pinker, guy who's all over the Epstein files, still gets quoted as if he's just any old Harvard professor and his opinion on young people isn't uh questionable?

One day this stupid thing will work.

What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.

Seems fine to me idk

Long long ago I was hanging out with a girl who would often say "We're all just dogs wearing sweaters" as if that was a common saying. She had made it up, but we all know what that means I think. Now I, too, say it as if it's a known idiomatic phrase. And now it is.

Husband found a game called Vampire Therapist which is exactly what it sounds like and the creators said they consulted licensed therapists when creating it so let’s see how this goes The game has a CW for all the mental health things so don’t read on/mute this thread if you need to 💜

I will venmo any reporter $2,000 to give trump a map of the middle east and ask him to identify iran

Alex Pretti’s mom shared this on what would’ve been her son’s 38th birthday today: “my love for him will never fade. You’ve made a change that cannot be broken.” We won’t forget Alex, and we will never stop fighting for justice for him and all the other lives taken or harmed by ICE’s actions.

I'm late Gen X and all I'm saying is Millennials got fucked harder than anyone else. They were raised on post 9/11 American media and government and it's just been an endless stream of shit. And I'm not even talking about the 09 collapse. The wars, watching guns shred schools, social media insanity

I ran some errands without the walking cast and unfortunately for each of the errands that was supposed to be a quick in and out of the store I ended up having to park further away than planned. My ankle is mad 😭

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

So wait you're telling me the Nazi child porn chatbot isn't safe and reliable enough for sensitive government work? How could such a thing have happened? www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

I love how we are all jumping from platform to platform as they each sink into shit

TRANS HERO SAVES DROWNING BABY This story should be everywhere.

Sweet little chaos agent

Kansas is sending letters to trans people telling them that their licenses will be revoked as of tomorrow and that they risk arrest for driving on a suspended license. This is pure cruelty. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

“Jocks cant be nerds, you say?” *slides this across the table*

I don’t think people understand what’s this means: MEDICARE AND MEDICAID ARE BLOCKING ALL WHEELCHAIRS, WALKERS, CANES, INSULIN PUMPS, GLUCOSE MONITORS, CPAP MACHINES, NEBULIZERS, BEDS, CRUTCHES, COMODE CHAIRS, BED SORE PRESSURE PADS, CHAIR LIFTS, OXYGEN TANKS, BREATHING EQUIPMENT, to name a few.

My therapist has finished book five of dungeon crawler Carl. My brother is working on book 2 and my theme park bestie is working on book 1. 😍

Was hard to get out of bed this morning and leave this snuggly baby

Mosaic effect implemented at scale rather than some specific magic of AI

There's a snowstorm coming. Bookshop.org has digital versions of my books. Just some food for thought.

My wife trying to get me to care about boys’ hockey by yelling “THE ONE WHO SCORED DEFENDED PRIDE NIGHT!” at me.

Clingy baby wants to sit between my eyes and my book
