Fox News produces more trans articles than any other outlet – including LGBTQ+ ones https://www.thepinknews.com/2026/02/10/fox-news-trans-articles/?utm_content=1770740405&utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky

I know how people presume that AI will help learning, and I understand the arguments for deployment, but I find them wanting and lacking in support for their specious conclusions. To the second point: identification of fallacies is a fraught task, and it does matter how and why we identify them.

Ring is first and foremost a scheme to charge Amazon customers to deter crime that costs Amazon (not the customers themselves) billions annually in refunds, returns, double shipping, and customer service overhead.

No industry has yet managed to appropriately adapt to language models in a way that preserves labor. Software engineering itself has been gutted as devs are laid off in record numbers. We don’t put enough value in actually employing people as its own social good, and we’re seeing the results.

I think a key distinction is labor cost — the costs of LLMs are currently hidden from most users bc the firms are losing money while competing for users. Once a monopoly is cemented, prices will go up and I’m not sure all firms will find LLMs are “cheaper”

I remember reading a book about the psychology of racism back in the day that cited a survey (from the 1990s, IIRC) in which the average American thought that 30% of the US was Black (it's actually like 15%) and 15% of the US was Jewish (it's actually <2%).

This is exactly right. There's a good chunk of research that says prejudice tends to inflate the perceived size of target groups. Scientists don't necessarily agree on why, but there are theories. I believe it's a combination of normal cognitive errors and deliberate manufacturing/manipulation.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Our product can show you what's outside the window that's right next to you, perform a Google search slower than you can yourself, and misinform your surgeon mid-procedure, causing a catastrophic failure that will injure you for life. The entire economy is propped up on it

what do you mean the leader of your country will sometimes "resign" just because there's "a scandal"

In turns fascinating, terrifying, and deeply depressing, this series is must-read to understand how we got here.

The term is so rare that out of over 300,000 news entries, it only appeared first in May 7 2024 in a "news" article on evangelical blog World News Group called "Giving evil a pleasant label." This was logged two days before EPPC posted the document on May 9. web.archive.org/web/20250908...

Part 3: "The astronomical rise in stories about trans people that I’d collected over the previous year told a different story. This massive, messy dataset was brimming with increasingly vile headlines that only seemed to metastasize with time. ... two years later we know how the story turns out."

Through and through, this is what heroism looks like. We owe it to her, we owe it to our siblings, and we owe it to ourselves to do everything we can to stop it.

I feel so sick reading this. She dedicated her life to helping her immigrant trans siblings, finally got the medical care she sought her whole life, and then a year later ICE tricked her, kidnapped her and used her postoperative status as a weapon to destroy her health. CW for basically everything

Concentration camps: “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

I remember hearing a story about how a group of Norwegian laundresses fucked up German uniforms during the occupation in WWII. Little things like too much starch or shrinking wool, etc. Just things to keep in mind

So, the March for Life appears to have brought Measles to DC. www.nbcwashington.com/news/health/...

Fondly remembering the months of weirdness/unhinged comments we got from Pritzker fiends on this app and others for simply (and accurately!) covering state police attacks on protesters outside Broadview. Godspeed to everyone in Minnesota facing the same from the Walz fan club

What’s darkly funny is that there’s an old CIA manual about this, and how if enough people do it, it can destabilize a country. It’s still on their website right now after being declassified in 2008.

A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare 👇 https://goodlaw.social/kyob

In addition to the incredible reporting here, there are 200 pages of purchase orders and contracts for download received through public information requests. This is chilling.

I hope this happens every day for the rest of his miserable life lasvegassun.com/news/2026/fe...

This piece above looks at the model legislation from the group Mailman is associated with - the Independent Women's Forum, whose model bills re: sex = gametes produced appeared in 2022 - a collection of such legislation below. Also (next skeet: biological sex) sites.google.com/view/liz-h-s...

You might know May Mailman as the woman who took on Harvard on behalf of the Trump administration. But Mailman, a Stephen Miller ally, is also the mastermind of Trump’s most sweeping anti-trans orders— an extraordinary effort to reshape our ideas about who and what men and women are.

Spent the last 30 mins trying to find the rampant trans cartoon content on Netflix we all want and Josh Hawley swears is in there. While I only found one cancelled show with a trans protagonist from 2023, I did find an AFA post about a show where a boy wore a tiara in 2024. So, total mayhem I guess.

There... aren't any trans characters on any current Netflix shows. The number is already zero.

Nope. Totally over these negotiations. No compromise. Not an inch. Just shut the whole thing down, walk away from the table and never come back. It’s quite literally the least you can do.

“If I am killed doing this, throw my body at the White House, martyr the shit out of me & raise hell. Do not be sad. Do not think I would do anything differently. I would do it over & over again — this is too important to sit down & shut up and not do anything.” www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Elizabeth is a Columbia Heights fourth-grader who loves volleyball, learning English and giggling in the halls with her friends. She's been held in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center for nearly a month, and she and her mom have both fallen ill. sahanjournal.com/education/co...

When all the data disappears what is left is the narrative put out by the same media conglomerates that put him back into power. Literally imposing a new dark ages at the same time we have more access to information than any other time in history. www.notus.org/trump-white-...

If I could impress one point on the Democrats it would be that you don't control the narrative (no one does). So if you throw trans people under the bus (or refuges, or Palestinians, or Somalis, or ...), that won't make the demagoguery stop.

ICE tear gassed a bunch of children on Saturday. This was a massive escalation of force. They were shooting tear gas at the back of the crowd, it took these unmasked people maybe 3-5 minutes in the cloud of tear gas to escape in without trampling. www.theverge.com/policy/87278...

please, your gun, it is smoking

It’s honestly ludicrous it took this long, but FINALLY: “The French offices of Elon Musk's X have been raided by the Paris prosecutor's cyber-crime unit, as part of an investigation into suspected offences including unlawful data extraction and complicity in the possession of child pornography.”

“But staff members at Hennepin County Medical Center determined that could not possibly account for the fractures and bleeding throughout the 31-year-old’s brain, said three nurses familiar with the case.” apnews.com/article/immi...

Sustained occupation foments sustained resistance. With each city the administration hits, the response becomes more organized and disciplined, and an entire region unified like this is unstoppable.

So many more receipts soon! Coding like a madwoman over here

The arrests of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lundy are unacceptable and a clear violation of the Constitution. This is a dangerous abuse of power that threatens the rights of every single American. They must be released immediately.

If you've given biometrics to TSA (Pre-Check and Global Entry members) and you plan to attend a protest, you should wear a medical mask.

LGBTQ-affirming churches have been terrorized by right-wing outlets for years. Not a single one has received so much as a censure despite leading to firebombings and demonstrations. This has absolutely nothing to do with the sanctity of worship and everything to do with silencing Black voices.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Reminder that they took over the Kennedy Center to screen this with your tax dollars.

Bondi directed federal agents to arrest four journalists. Georgia Fort, Don Lemon, Jamael Lundy, and Trahern Crews. All Black. All doing their jobs.
