There are people raised as girls with no vagina, uterus, nor ovaries. People who have a penis and testes but not sperm. Dozens of chromosomal combinations. The world is full of nuance!

It was never about “protecting” women.

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

Is this the justification/rationale for tech accelerationism??? If the “Antichrist’s arrival is a necessary precursor to the 2d Coming of Christ,” then “[s]hould we even be looking to delay the end of the world? Maybe we shld just accelerate, put the pedal to the floor &… get it all over with…” 1/

“Her and I, at the beginning, I felt like we were running into each other all the time.” Maybe because you’re kidnapping her family?

More than 200 complaints regarding sexual violence at schools have been filed with the Education Department since the start of Trump’s second term. The department has investigated only 29 of these, finding fault with a school district only once.

In all the hubbub over the cruelty of the death penalty, I missed that one of the people Alabama executed last month was the guy who shot James "Orion" Ellis, a singer who performed in a mask to play up rumors that he was Elvis Presley and had faked his own death.

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language.

While they have you fearing Islam, Christian nationalists are telling women to shut up. They're in Congress writing our laws and attributing this fascism to God. There's no difference between what they're saying and Taliban fascism. Islamic teaching says women are equal partners.

It’s a scam. It’s a scam. It’s always a scam.

A woman in Arkansas was seeking care for a life-threatening miscarriage. Under the state’s strict abortion ban, no doctor would treat her. “Our hands are tied behind our backs,” one doctor told her. “Tell your friends to vote differently.” (Published May)

propublica.orgShe Faced a Life-Threatening Miscarriage. Under Arkansas’ Abortion Ban, Even Calls to the Governor’s Office Didn’t Help.Her case shows how abortion bans have left hospital lawyers, not doctors, deciding who gets care — and how lawmakers and regulators have failed to change that.

1/ Donald Trump's interview with Newsmax yesterday shows very clearly that he subscribes to many false Russian-originated claims and conspiracy theories about the war in Ukraine and has a strong personal dislike of President Zelenskyy. Here's a full transcript:

Last year, Trump and 98% of elected GOP enacted the biggest Medicaid cuts in history, bigger even than Reagan's Medicaid cuts. By 2034, 7.5 million people will lose their Medicaid because of the cuts. Clinics are already closing and hospitals are already cutting services, citing OBBBA as a reason.

Grindr is training its AI on your photos, your age, and your taps by default, without asking. This video shows where the app buried the off switch. The stakes are high on an app like Grindr. Numerous countries criminalize same-sex relations, so being outed through your data can be dangerous.
