"We live in a time when the availability of knowledge gets confused with having knowledge. People seem to think that having the internet at their fingertips means they no longer need to know anything themselves. But in order to understand things, you need a lot of knowledge readily available in your head."

Lately I've seen nonsense like "trans women are not women" or "trans women cannot be mothers" in my feed.
I'd like to provide an engineer's answer:
"People Who Say It Cannot Be Done Should Not Interrupt Those Who Are Doing It."
It is very clear and visible that there are trans women who are doing motherhood, doing sisterhood, doing cool-aunt-hood, and so on.
I sincerely hope that this puts the matter to rest.
So apparently some right-wing extremist cried to Fox News that "drug dealers were taking over the farmers market" in UN Plaza, and city officials are now hassling the market.
Not only is this absolutely false, it's had a real impact, and made vendors worried about the market's future. If you live in SF, and especially the neighborhood, talk to your officials and tell them this market is great and to leave it the hell alone!
Heart of the City market has outlasted the careers of many local politicians, and may it continue to.
