Men's complaints today: we are horribly oppressed because a woman translated Homer. Women's complaints: see Heidi Blake's utterly horrific report on the Tate brothers' long campaign of rape, violent physical and psychological abuse, and trafficking of, apparently, hundreds of women.

What's that? Another Indie game came out at 20 bucks giving a lie to the corporate line that video games need to cost 80 dollars now? You don't say Anyway time to make Mina the Hollower my personality for the next month or so

i have enough what to what now

This is the most telegraphed twist in history, but the way it was handled is still really cool. Solid game, 8/10, will be playing Fivel Goes to Lordran again

*groan* My dude, stop buying into the GOP premise on this stuff. It's the same as saying you oppose "partial-birth abortion," which isn't a thing. It only has the effect of legitimizing the GOP claims as being something real that needs to be stopped.

Feeling particularly hopeless so if it could happen today that would be great

This is why the fact that Trump used a mail-in ballot himself doesn’t matter. They know it’s bullshit and pointing out the hypocrisy only gives them free rein to keep using this disingenuous framework.

This is important because if we approach the problem as one of misinformation rather than racism, we’re going to spend a lot of time debunking things they’re not actually concerned about, rather than addressing the racism and protecting the targets of it.

Sure, you can try to fit anything you like to the datapoints you've got and that does carry some freight as to health consequence and controls you'd want to do to try to keep doses ALARA. Except the people arguing against LNT want to do less work, have less controls. Guess how those curves look.

Where people would have once liked to set a threshold is now a place we have data below, which would have invalidated that threshold, building the argument for that there is No Threshold. The next argument point is what if you draw curves rather than lines?

Are the lower dose biological effects we can now detect consequential? Maybe, maybe not. But the point is we *CAN* notice them which means we're shining a flashlight on the No Data Here part of the graph which makes drawing that line from Hiroshima & Nagasaki victims down to the origin look better.

And that statement, which I've heard many times even from fellow health physicists, was accurate...in the 1960s. One of my favorite sayings is "There is a world of difference between detectable & dangerous and our detectors get better every year." We've gotten better at finding effects.

Because @jfoy.bsky.social asked for it, it is time for Linear-No Threshold (LNT) Hypothesis & As Low As Reasonably Acheivable (ALARA) chat. One is a philosophy and the other is a model operating within that philosophy.

Y'all. Please remember the artists that drew these things when sending around memes. I feel for these artists who NEVER get credited for these (and some, nowadays, are even being accused of being AI!) Here's a few common ones I see (feel free to add others, I want this to be a living thread): 🧵

Lmfao ok no disrespect to anyone involved this was just a hilarious thing to scroll past

Vegeta shows everyone the true meaning of PRIDE No matter the month, our profits from our TFS Pride (sharkrobot.com/products/tfs...) and Trans Pride (sharkrobot.com/products/tra...) shirts will be donated to the Trevor Project and Trans Lifeline respectively! Credits in the reply!

A Knicks knack patty whack give a dog a bone Is this anything

happy pride

The parents of LaGuardia High School student Oliver, 17, are raising the alarm after getting a surprise call from Mount Sinai on Thursday informing them that the hospital would be handing over trans children's medical records—including their son's—to the Trump administration.

Today is Breonna Taylor’s 33rd birthday. Now, more than 6 years after she was killed by Louisville Metro Police Department officers who forcibly entered her home, the Taylor family has still been denied full justice for her murder, with only one of the officers who shot her being held accountable.

Me: If you perform the modulo operation with a divisor of 5, then both of these dividends have a 2 remainder. Tester: Okay you're being diagnosed with being a nerd.

Marlon Wayans has a transgender child and he co wrote the film along with his brothers, which makes this even worse.

Medicare will no longer be covering a number of chemotherapy drugs for treatment of colorectal cancer at the behest of RFK Jr. This is going to kill Medicare beneficiaries www.aapc.com/blog/94068-m...

extremely why I cannot fuck with the church anymore, not even the “good ones”

extremely normal country

His name is Tristan Kern de Gonzales and is much younger. You can read his posts about this but, as I recall, the couple had just gotten married a year prior and were preparing for their life together in Jonathan's family home. After this, Tristan could only fly back to his family.

Feel as though people will truly never understand his death. He was killed for being an Indigenous Queer Man with a Transgender Partner. Every single one of those signifiers on axis/intersections/marginalizations is extremely important, but it is in tandem all at once not just because he “Gay”.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.

Kind of love how done Hunter Biden is with everything

they'll call you a crazy reactionary alarmist right up until the day when they demand to know why you never said anything

reading the news every day like:

Not to mention that (Hwite) farmers are already one of the most heavily subsidized groups in the country

New favorite hobby: Pissing off Europeans

So after openly deadnaming all our trans folks last week, leadership apologized, but then did not update employee's names for the vote today. This means our trans employees are being forced to openly deadname themselves in order to vote in today's union election. This is deeply fucked.

Going to think about this every time people try and act like WotC is somehow a "progressive" company or that D&D has become a great "queer game" somehow

Saw this on FB. If you’ve ever enjoyed Aqua Teen, please help if you can. Someone who’s such an integral part of one of Adult Swim’s most beloved shows deserves much better than this.

We lost Jonathan Joss exactly One Year ago today. A neighbor burned his house, killed his dogs and shot him in the street for being Gay. Never forget Jonathan Joss. #KingOfTheHill #JohnRedcorn

Kim has skipped pride and gone straight to Gay Wrath.

This post is not doing well, I wonder why

Repost the Leather Dachshund from Seattle Pride 1991 to be blessed this Pride Month!

If I'm remembering my AP Chemistry correctly the propaganda is technically about how cis planes won't fly The propaganda was wrong on at least 3 levels

Happy Pride! I made this for you all to use as you see fit this month.

Happy pride!

Just cross posting this horrific intel from an independent journalist who has been on the ground in NJ for the last few days: www.threads.com/@hereswhykev...

Oh, good, it has difficult platforming sections with solid rewards at the end. I'm way more on board. Now if Mina was even half as cool as Hornet...

2 hours in, calling it now, Lionel is the actual bad guy and Thorne is justified in whatever they're doing
