The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.
Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

i think everyone getting mad are just cowards who are scared to directly say they think the transphobic policies are good
I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

And here was me thinking that the reason people went to streaming sites was to see streamers. If we wanted cloud gaming we'd go check out OnLive... oh wait... Anyway, did you know our featured streamers spot on the front page is random? We give everyone a spot, not just the biggest communities.
Twitch is experimenting with using its front page as an Amazon Luna promotional vehicle, pushing creator discovery down a shelf.

Sigh… but yes. Tell me again how I should full theaters get down on my knees to support the democrats.
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

Setting the “trans rights movement” back a decade would actually be an improvement tbh
You have that right. You simply don't have the right to dictate how others feel. And by attempting to do so, you're setting the movement back a decade. That is also well within your purview. I'll always support human rights for any community equally. Nobody is special.

What’s wild is the response from the convention was literally “everyone is saying pay artists - guess what, we’re broke, we couldn’t pay them” (amongst lots of other really pitiful excuses)
See now we're fucking talking One of the only weapons we wield in this fight is our money and attendance, and if everyone involved with an event says "I'm not going unless you stop using AI" there's only two outcomes: *No AI or No Convention* Conventions are made by and for the community

For today's lucky 10,000: In a URL, the "?blah=blah" stuff at the end are called request variables. They allow you to pass arbitrary data to a website page. They aren't *always* tracker BS. You can and will find benign ones in the wild. But in YouTube/Amazon/etc links? Yeah, largely tracker BS.
for those who don’t know: everything after a ? in a link is to track people who click on the link, so you can get rid of it without compromising the link AND protect peoples’ privacy

Vile bit of consent manufacturing for the obvious media campaign to push this idea. What this survey actually measures is that misinformation is working and half of people are just completely wrong about this thing they've being lied to about. Feels like gloating.
With much media coverage of a government report that ADHD and autism are being over-diagnosed, a claim which some experts have disputed, half of Britons now believe that the conditions are being over-diagnosed Over-diagnosed: 50% Under-diagnosed: 17% About right: 17% yougov.com/en-gb/daily-...
