every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing

I’m not trans. As far as I know, my kids aren’t at the moment. Nobody in my family is. None of my good friends are. I don’t prescribe medication for gender affirming care. I don’t specifically treat folks for gender dysphoria. So why do I give a fuck?

You don’t punch down. There’s no transgender machine producing trans judiciary and trans politicians and trans PACs to come for my cisgender. There are trans folks being discriminated against, outed, beaten, jailed, and killed. I hate bullies.

The Pentagon says only 23% of Gen Z is fit to serve. The rest are either obese, failing math, or already have a rap sheet.

Turns out if you gut schools and subsidize corn syrup long enough, you accidentally pacifist-proof the entire country.

Tactical genius.

There's this myth that automated spam detection is hard because spammers are all very clever masters of disguise.

No. Spammers are stupid as a shoe. They have dog shit for brains.

Automated spam detection is hard because the line between spam and "legitimate" marketing activity is a fiction.

@macrumors Mate, it could fart rainbows & I still wouldn't use it.

Next up is raspberry pi class devices.

They're eliminating general purpose computing devices so next ice deployment the resistance can't anonymously coordinate on signal because your government ID is tied to your device and it's legally required to dox you in all communications.

AI rapidly increases speed of the first 90% of software development. But still, you’ll have to do the remaining 90% yourself.

@sotolf It's been a long time, but I don’t recall really enjoying the red/green/blue mars books though I did slog through them, coming away largely disappointed.

I recently tried to read Ministry for the Future because it was the same author, which started out interesting but I noped out as soon as I got to "cryptocurrency will save the world”.

I've realized I do not think I like Kim Stanley Robsinson or his books very much.

It is very funny that ICE didn’t change anything about their MO for the airport deployments.

The dude is wearing plate armor with a bunch of shit tactically stuck to it, to stand behind a Black woman sitting in a chair, doing the actual work, without getting paid.
