I wonder what our newly morally principled payment processors will have to say about this? Will they blacklist ChatGPT? *Jeopardy theme plays*

It really can't be said enough: the goal of the "anti-woke" movement was always to destroy social norms against bigotry. And it worked. And there's a whole lot of purportedly "left" thinkers & commentators who helped it -- indeed, it couldn't have been done without them. They should feel bad.

US news. A judge who ruled against Trump has been doxxed and receiving death threats. Now members of her family have been seriously injured escaping from this huge blast at her home. It’s being investigated as a possible arson attack. We’re living in bad times, says my mum. She lived through WW2.

In Glasgow, there is a 224-year waiting list for gender clinic appointments. 224 YEARS. This is institutionalised discrimination. It's unacceptable, it's ruining people's lives and it needs to change. We have the solution. Time for politicians to act.

so the US government just forced a tech company to delete an app it doesn’t like, which is totally normal stuff www.404media.co/iceblock-own...

On Friday 18 blue state attorneys general BLASTED the Federal Trade Commission, telling it to back off trans youth healthcare and warning of an insidious attempt to reshape the regulation of medicine in the US. And nobody covered it. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

Reports from the Miami Herald reveal that a staggering 1,200 people have gone missing from just this one facility. Alcatraz is now drawing comparisons to Auschwitz.

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

i guess not I'm surprised that Ken Jennings is really good here, i just wouldn't have predicted the host of Jeopardy being a voice of moral courage on this specific issue.

I could never have imagined boycotting Ben & Jerry's until reading this. Does Unilever not realize that standing up for true values like peace, justice, and human rights is an inseparable part of their brand appeal, and a condition of the 2000 merger agreement, which Unilever is now violating?

Though the article says the SpaceX packaging "appeared to be" fake, what if it isn't? Does anyone at this point believe Elon WOULDN'T arrange for SpaceX-branded cocaine to be sent to his billionaire buddies and friendly government officials across the globe, or would ever be prosecuted for doing so?

The plot has been completely lost. It feels parodic at this point. Like someone is trying to force a mass delusion. No thank you.

Hold on, these are the "we don't have to bake your gay wedding cake" people?

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Oh dear. Apparently Lord Hodge has been speaking to The Times (go figure) to justify the mess that is the FWS judgment and suggesting that it is based on careful assessment of whether their ‘biological sex’ option makes sense. Well, given …

JK Rowling quoting Mein Kampf has not been covered in any of the papers I monitor. Shocking, I know 🙄

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/h...

Every American newspaper, 2029: "Of course he was guilty. How could the press have got it so wrong? Our reporters investigate."

Well, part of it anyway

Slightly diminish a book: Moby Weenie

One of these days AI is going to "enhance" the wrong body area, and the transvestigators will have a field day

Whispers *that's the French flag mate*

When news broke that police found a deceased "infant" in a Kentucky college student's room, I begged reporters not to uncritically repeat that language. I pointed out that cops will often say they found a 'baby' when arresting someone over their *miscarriage* jessica.substack.com/p/laken-snel...

Only 51% support for vaccinating kids?? Bleak

He said people should attack trans women on sight They won't quote him, they won't post what he actually said, some are even lying about it and making up a fake quote. He said, to assault trans women on sight That's not freedom of speech

In a completely unrelated thought, any other Supernatural fans out there thinking about hellhounds right about now?

if they claim we are not worth saving because we are insignificant, yet the suggestion that we might withhold support and not vote — not even threats to defect and vote for the other team! — sparks outrage strongly implying that we are significant enough to cost dems a win, what’s their real reason?

nobody left behind. no support for trans people? no support from trans people. if we're not important enough to support then maybe you can afford to lose us. if not, fight for the alternative. the math is clear.

Black women have every right to be furious. The irresponsible choices of white voters has for many of us, taken our livelihood with consequences for our homes, the education of our children, our ability to care for parents. It’s unconscionable. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...

This is important. I’ve fallen for Pink News’s click bait reporting of the M&S bra fitting story and contributed to fear and anxiety in the trans community. I’m sorry. It looks like M&S are fully supportive of trans staff and customers. I don’t understand why M&S haven’t made a statement.

Update: M&S are cool and GCs and the Sun are filthy liars

I’m dying.
