Y'all go check out my new story... And Big and Bright!

I haven't mentioned it yet but I'm excited about "Big and Bright," the new LGBTQIA+ section at @thebarbedwire.com ... I'm not aware of other statewide pubs devoting this much space to queer and trans life. Thanks to @oliviamesser.bsky.social and the rest of the team who are making this happen.

It’s raw, urgent, and beautifully written. If you care about democracy, protest, or truth, read it now:

Democrats at every level of power could simply repeat "he must resign" over and over and over again. It's what the GOP would do if the situation were reversed. Further erode his power by pushing him to lash out more.

"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAI’s “audacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.” If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as India’s 1.5 billion people" Great @truthdig.com piece on chips ->

I’ve seen a few folks go for the “if you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

I know we all have a lot of other things to worry about right now but this is your PSA to get the latest covid booster & flu shot if you haven't already. It takes a couple weeks to build immunity and holidays will be here soon. (Stickers from my shop! shop.breelundberg.com/product/get-...)

Hi. I’ve been editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue for the last 4.5 years — a dream job, one I never thought a Brown girl from small town Louisiana might hold. I am so incredibly proud of the work we’ve done and what we accomplished. Our journalism has won major awards. (cont’d)

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

What a surprise-after posting yesterday that there was very little about Prescott or Hanover Communications online, @bylinetimes.bsky.social have been doing some digging and guess what? The so called independent advisor to the BBC is anything but…

Nothing illustrates the arseholery of the IOC and the British Press more than the use of the image of a not-Trans woman to illustrate a story about trans women being banned (because there are no current trans women competing at this level)

As we learn more and more about the costs associated with GenAI, I continue to wonder how institutions and their leadership decide that yes, incorporating anything OpenAI produces into the lives of educators and students is worth the harms.

Some setbacks in time over the past month, and overthinking how I wanted to ink the most recent row, but 20/30 panels done on the origin of the solar system - the pantheon is taking shape... Excited to see it all coming together! #Nostos #Unflattening 2

Happy birthday to me and us 🎉🎉🎉 I'm an identical twin born on 11/11, which is also my dad's birthday. It was always a big day in my family when I was growing up. Sharing a birthday is a wonderful thing. Sis and I are 45 today!
