Any good free tool to cross post from BlueSky to Threads?

My book Courtroom Science and Trans Youth is out TODAY, just in time for Trans Day of Visibility! It’s about how courts treat science and scientific expertise in family law cases involving trans children, and how we need to do better and stop medicalizing and gatekeeping them.

NYTimes has spent years breathlessly repeating claims that objecting to the treatment of Palestinians is antisemitic, but when right-wingers say they're “J-pilled,” NYTimes calls this "slang for skepticism of Israeli influence." Where's the "J" in "Israel"? Might that "J" mean something else?

Israel bringing back the death penalty that it had previously abolished *specifically* for Palestinians is an absolutely hideous crime

"Israel" doesn't start with a J.

The Knesset passed a bill today mandating the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of terror - but not for Jews. There is a word for a legal system where different legal standards apply to different categories of people. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

🤣 this tho

People truly seem to forget that trans communities have long had a very antagonistic relationship with WPATH, whom we have seen and continue to see as a major force of gatekeeping.

What's really going on here is twofold. First, the anti-trans "reporters" on this issue do not know their own beat. As I've said before, the anti-trans argument is a conspiracy theory. It posits that the medical field is handing out surgeries to kids at the slightest hint of gender nonconformity.

the reason hegseth lobbied trump to pardon war criminals in his first term and why he has done everything possible to make war crimes more likely is that hegseth believes war crimes to be Objectively Good. war to him, in fact, consists of committing indiscriminate war crimes.

"litmus test" is just consultant speak for "having beliefs"

I'm thinking of using colour pens at least for some of my future creations. Are there ones that truly don't self-overlap? Like, don't get darker if you go over the same spot more than once?

It's the book Papercutting: Reviving a Jewish Folk Art by Amy Goldenberg, if anyone has ways of tracking such things.

I had ordered a book from AbeBooks, but it got lost in transit so it was refunded. And now I was looking at buying it anew, and there's only ONE copy available and it's $390. Absurd. D:

Ben Ryan is so unserious.

Nobody snitch but I’m giving this handmade gift tomorrow.

My throat tends to be pretty phlegmy, especially after I eat, and this can be annoying when singing — anyone has a magic trick, like something I can drink or some such, that would help?

Men—making lesbians’ lives easier by placing the dating bar on the literal floor. 😅

We went on a walk to a very cute little lake; when we were about a third of the way around, she asked if I wanted to stop for a minute to enjoy the sunset over the lake, and that’s when she asked me to be her girlfriend.

😭 I was thinking baked brie and fig syrup, but 😭 I can’t deny this one

“Say uncle!” would have a very different vibr in Biblical Hebrew.

I write smut but I can’t compete with Ancient Israelite horniness. Guess the lack of porn does something to you.

Song of Songs 5:3 is so horny: “I stripped my tunic — how shall I wear it? I washed my feet — how shall I dirty them?”

We believe - on the basis of very good legal advice - that the law doesn't require this. Sadly, Girlguiding haven't taken up Good Law Project's offer of legal support and an indemnity. And it's these young girls who will suffer the consequences.

One day, a thousands of years old mistake will be corrected and “milk and honey” will be finally retranslated as “cheese and syrup.”

Shavua tov everyone! Guess who has a girlfriend 🙈

It's just an objective fact that Republicans like it when mothers die. It's been a core policy plank of the GOP my entire life.

It's really funny that the New York Times has a whole separate set of verified social media accounts just to reply to people with "actually we're doing a great job"

God during the wilderness era:

According to the Zohar, God has hazel eyes.

Literally no one says *anything*. It’s really hard to take, like we are being shredded piece by piece and nobody cares.

You don't hate the New York Times enough, you just think you do.

Is that enough za’atar?

Nobody ruin the surprise to my girl, but here’s something I’ve been working on… Next step, colouring!

There’s a certain irony to the antisemitic obsession with Jews often having larger noses. If they learned Biblical Hebrew, they’d realize that it’s not only a huge compliment but in fact an explicit attribute of God.

I think hosting a Seder is an extremely fitting Christian tradition. No, not that way. It’s just extremely on theme seeing right-wing Christians who think Jesus is coming back and Jews will convert or go to eternal hell to cosplay Jewish practices that didn’t even emerge until after Jesus.

Genuinely thought it was a joke AI video on TikTok when I saw the thing about Republicans creating the America First award to give it to Trump. The noticed it was Reuters.

My Microsoft Word has slowed to a crawl since yesterday. The only two changes I can think of is installing Zotero 64-bit (replacing the 32-bit version) and maybe some Windows updates? Any ideas on troubleshooting? I’ve restarted my computer multiple times and have used a disable Windows AI script.

This is my sixth year posting this

Raul Rivera yelling outside Mamdani presser. Mamdani: “I want that man to be able to afford to keep living in NYC, because the day that I don't hear him yelling at me, it means he got priced out of this place.” “We need to make this a city where it's affordable enough to yell at your politicians.”

LOL

Harry Potter tattoo regret rate is an order of magnitude higher than regret for Gender Reassignment Surgery and yet no one has been brave enough to suggest we legislate Harry Potter tattoos.

the girl guides in the UK just kicked out all their trans members specifically bc they were threatened with a lawsuit from a rowling-funded group

Can you iron tzitzit with a hair straightener?

The thing about the leftists who are radicalized into antisemitism by their grief over Palestine is that they are so very very similar to people who are radicalized into Islamophobia by their grief over some other atrocity and they cannot see it.

lol

Are there any other reliable ways of hitting the brain reset button that falling asleep for even just half a second does?

Hi, how do I delete this fuck-ass bloatware bullshit?

Anyway, I’m pretty sure my students are going to start a messianic cult, though I’ve declined to be their leader. 😜
