Tuesday the Danes elected 86 female members to the Parliament, the Folketinget. This means Denmark is now led by 48 percent women.
I too voted for a woman. Not because she was a woman, but because she was the most qualified.
In general, there has been far fewer political scandals with women over the years, and it has been my impression that more women are well prepared, they are more hard working, while some men are more focused on press coverage and social media visibility.

And really, at the end of the day that's the problem.
if you genuinely believe in the King of Kings, that God's will is law, that God's word must be held above all others - it is fucking CATEGORICALLY impossible for you to be an adherent to Democratic political forms. So the moment you tell me "my religion won't affect my elected official position" you're either fucking LYING to me, or a heretic.
This must stop. I'm sorry. I don't care if you feel a way.

I start reading what is supposedly a powerful personal story about burnout in open source. Then I start to see the pattern - that familiar tempo. Admittedly there's no "Not x. Not y. Just z'. But there's that faint whiff, like the neighbor is burning toast. The paragraphs are just a bit too regular. Something about the headings. Yeah my dude, you used ChatGPT to write this, didn't you. I'm sure of it. Not sure enough of just how much to comment on the post, and I don't have the energy to get in an argument about it.
Ai both degrades trust - making us suspicious of everything we see and read - and sucks the life and personality out of absolutely everything it touches. I'm so sick of starting to read and going, oh, nope this is machine-generated nothingness. I hate this. I hate all of it.
