1. Numerous transgender people in Kansas are reporting that the state has sent them a letter demanding the immediate surrender of drivers licenses. Those driving could be arrested, charged, and see privileges revoked. Subscribe to support our journalism. www.erininthemorning.com/p/kansas-sen...

Yeah, why would experts in a field of care drive the developments of policy statements about it. It should be people who have no idea about the field at all and have never met a trans person. /s

bitch it was cool

"The judge upbraided the Meta team and said if you guys have recorded anything, you have to dispose of it or I will hold you in contempt," Jacob Ward, a technology journalist and the host of the Rip Current Podcast, told CBS News, calling the incident "an extraordinary misstep" by Meta.

Has Dolly Parton ever covered Cake's "Jolene"? Has Cake ever covered Dolly Parton's "Jolene"? I would give anything to hear either (or both).

Every mustache I grew was a mustache.

"Your pets may not necessarily love it when you kiss and hug them" Yeah well I may not necessarily love picking up poop so I guess we're all gonna have to make some sacrifices.

I really do think this is an excellent metaphor for the moment.

What a time to get back in the game!

Kind of obsessed with my 11-year-old's drawing of a black hole barfing out a rainbow and creating the earth.

don't worry, they don't make you hallucinate tiny elves. the tiny elves are real and steal your missing socks and whatnot and the mushrooms are the only way to see them.

There is a little part of me that would love to try this drug 🤣

Oh yes, oh yes. Let’s let this trend catch on.

So excited!!!

Poetry found under a bridge. (It's "I Will Not Die an Unlived Life" by Dawna Markova.)

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been dissolved, ending its 58 years as the primary funder for PBS, NPR and local TV and radio stations

Even Trump says it was a kidnapping. But the BBC says its journalists can’t call it that? Come on.

No. No. No. Punitive processes make narrowly targeted programs *less* efficient and *more* costly. Because more scrutiny requires more bureaucracy. Punitive processes also make it *less* likely that people will get aid for which they qualify. Because of the roadblocks and stigma scrutiny creates.

Looking forward to a smol one

world's weirdest tontine

You know in movies where they kinda wipe their hand gently over the face of a dead guy and it closes their eyes. It would be a good gag if they did that on a guy with glasses. Either his eyes close or the glasses turn into sunglasses.

This time last year, I envisioned doing an end of year retrospective on my first year as co-host of On The Record. Sadly, the show was canceled in October (and I was let go). But we broadcast some great stories! And I want to look back at some of them!

Which score works better: Feather theme from Forrest Gump Plastic Bag theme from American Beauty

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Remember: When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them. When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips. ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides

Agree 100% with this.

I like that mistletoe increases the odds of being kissed. More plants should offer temporary environmental status. Brawling under lingonberries. The soft yearning of a love that dare not speak its name beneath the nightshade.

Christian Clothing CEO: You finish that sweatshirt about saving as many souls as possible? Christian Clothing Designer: Sure did, boss. Real fuckin’ ominous and with an implied threat of mass murder, just like you asked. Christian Clothing CEO: What.

I feel like I'm going to get a lot of use out of this Pluribus screencap

I feel like Pepé the King Prawn does have a kind of transmasc energy? But he isn't in the Muppet Christmas Carol.

Was watching The Muppet Christmas Carol and began laughing at "CIS HOLLYWOOD" in the credits. I mean, the Muppets can't all be cis... can they?

Lord Baltimore cake? Omg!

"if you live against your grain to appease a word, then the only person who benefits is no person at all." I wish more people understood how much we get a say in who we are and what we do in our lives, in so many aspects of our lives, not just gender stuff. tapas.io/episode/3755...

I'm surprised that so many people don't know this.

while grading I found myself about to say a few times, “this prose feels empty in an AI sort of way,” in cases where I had no idea if the student used AI, but the empty prose simply “felt” sorta fake & I think it’s fascinating how AI has so quickly become a synonym for meaningless, empty, useless

It’s not the correcting that’s exhausting. It’s feeling like the other person doesn’t want to put in the effort. (Phone Call pt. 3/5) #webcomics

This is something Lt Barclay would come up with (extremely derogatory)

Amazon is making money off AI copies of books - and putting the onus on authors to prove they’ve been plagiarised. Honestly, just stop buying books from Amazon. Get them from an actual bookshop or order them from a reputable book supplier like bookshop.org www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...
