Dear Idaho, Congratulations. You joined an elite and special group of states this week when passing one of the worst bathroom laws on the books. buff.ly/RIpZu7c #LGBTQ #USPolitics #Idaho #Transgender #HB752

I should not go to an #Idaho jail for using the restroom by Rachel Stevens, a 78 year-old trans woman, a former Marine Corps Judge Advocate and recovering Texas trial lawyer, a proud parent and grandparent, a screenwriter and artist #HB752 #GenderIdentity www.idahostatesman.com/opinion/read...

The A stands for “astroturf.”

That’s just a little on the nose, police state

What do you use to author DVDs nowadays?

The fact that race science and eugenics are inextricable from this technology is also why its makers and sellers and pushers do not want you looking too deep into its histories and/or consequences, why they shout you down so hard, why they demonize critics.

Personal update: I resigned from Deno two weeks ago. Yesterday was my last day at Deno. Working on Deno, Deno Deploy, JSR, and Fresh with my world class colleagues has been an absolute honor. I wish everyone who I have worked with at Deno the absolute best - continue building groundbreaking things!

I like Signal over old fashion text messages (SMS) because SMS is very insecure, easy to spy on, gets collected by NSA, etc. And it's not as good at photos/videos/group chats. But I mean yeah, at least it's not a Meta product

Another great option is @threema.ch

I don't speak on behalf of the company; this is just me, sharing what I can because I guess I hope maybe it'll do some good. If I can connect you with any of these extraordinarily talented ex-Deno folks, or if you just want to hear me gush about them (and maybe cry a little), hit me up.

Rumors, misinformation, and baseless speculation tend to swirl when a big thing like this happens, so in the interest of staving off some of that, let me just say: nothing led to this except cruel business realities. Deno is not going away. These are just hard times.

You might have noticed me sharing a lot of posts from ex-Deno folks. I'd unhesitatingly go to bat for, work with, or hire each and every one of my now-former colleagues in a heartbeat. To a person, these are brilliant, kind, thoughtful humans who are each exceptionally excellent at what they do.

Quite like that the thumbnail here makes me look as if I've just taken massive offfence at something @grahamcluley.com has said.

An investigation from Transitics has revealed that, under a Democratic governor, Kansas secretly built a list of the state's trans people. Today, Republicans just weaponized it to revoke their IDs. transitics.substack.com/p/kansas-sec...

Under a new policy released Thursday, the Trump Administration will test conversion therapy on trans people in prisons. It explicitly states that it aims to help trans people “recover,” all the while forcibly detransitioning them both medically and socially. transitics.substack.com/p/the-trump-...

that sound you hear is the deafening laughter of trans people

We are living through dark, disturbing and dangerous times, but do not despair — the cavalry is coming! Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be taking the stage this spring from Minneapolis to California to Texas to Washington, D.C. for the Land of Hope And Dreams American Tour.

douglas adams was our most accurate futurist

KS Sen. Cindy Holscher, D-Overand Park, challenged the Republican-led majority to show evidence that sexual assaults occur in bathrooms by trans people. She quoted various studies to back up her calculations that Kansans have a .00083% chance of being assaulted by a trans person in a restroom. 1/2

This bill includes criminal penalties and a bounty provision. It also authorizes the state DMV to strip trans people off their current drivers licenses.
