Also true about trans women culture & discourse, only it's called Whipping Girl and it was published in 2007.
no shade but any time you think you have an original thought about hockey culture just know there’s a Canadian out there with like 2 masters degrees and a doctorate that has already written about it at length

Frankly, if you're not exercising your 2nd amendment rights already, you're not doing enough. When one of you does more to masked ICE agents than honk at them, then we can talk.

I don't wanna put this person on blast but this is the 7th one like this I saw today. Yes, we expect you to organize unprecedented. Yes, some of you will get killed. If you're not willing to do that don't bring your sorry when 🇨🇦ians & 🇬🇱ers get killed. https://t.co/Ilwr7zwuVG
I would rlly like to know what onlookers expect us to do when half of this country thinks secret police who terrorize and murder citizens are in the right. The other half of us are in agreement this administration is horrific and the people in alignment are bread dead, anti

The quote tweets to this post prove its point. An endless sea of Americans making excuses and then telling each other "Exactlyyyyy". You've tried nothing & all you're all out of ideas. Because you actually don't want to materially sacrifice anything not least the S&P 500. 1/2
I've truly lost any empathy as a Canadian to my US friends. Sorry, and I didn't vote for him doesn't cut it any more. We are through with you. You're part of the reason we are angry right now. You are citizens of the US and are accountable. You don't get off easy any more.

Again, I’ve been told this by multiple people I know overseas. People in Europe no longer trust the *US electorate* to make rational decisions. China is problematic in so many areas, but it is a reliable and known entity on the world stage, and countries can deal with that.
“we may or may not invade you every four years depending on how worked up ~20,000 swing voters in Waukesha County, Wisconsin feel about trans kids playing volleyball” isn’t really a good sales pitch for maintaining international allies.

It's Cinema Appreciation Day! Nothing - *nothing* - makes me feel "Fuck Yeah This Is Why I Love Movies" more than David's yearly countdown. <3

I’ll say it plainly: Mark Carney is the right person for this moment, and the people losing their minds about it are proving exactly why. Canada is not weak. Canada does not “suck.” And we don’t need to burn our institutions to the ground because a loud minority is addicted to

Anthropic eliminating access to their highly subsidized subscription deal is the biggest fake controversy in a while. It's a completely reasonable thing to do as a business.
this is driving me completely insane ANTHROPIC DID NOT BLOCK OPENCODE OPENCODE COULD STILL USE OPUS FROM THE API THEY WERE BLOCKED FROM USING THE ANTHROPIC SUBSCRIPTION TOKEN WHICH THEY KNEW THEY WERENT SUPPOSED TO BE USING TO GET DISCOUNTED INFERENCE FOR THEIR USERS

The early 2010s era of wokeness had me thinking these sidewalks/murals/etc were a bit naff and performative and overall pointless. Turns out I was wrong. The removal of these is essentially a declaration of hatred. A demand to the return of concealment. Never give them an inch.

Eugenics being the ultimate taboo in Federation society has been a core part of Star Trek canon for six decades, yet you've still got dipshit tourists smugly asking "um, why are there disabled people in the future?"

Normalize and celebrate growth and reflection, and show it's okay for people to leave the cult because they won't be abandoned.
@CantEverDie I feel immense guilt for my role. And even more guilt that things I have said in the past may have caused my son’s sister more pain. Idrk how to make amends for many of these things but I have been trying incredibly hard privately to learn + advocate for those within the trans

“Fucking bitch” are not the immediate words of someone who shot a person in the face because they were scared. They are the immediate words of someone who shot a person in the face because they were mad at them.

The reason why RAM has become four times more expensive is that a huge amount of RAM that has not yet been produced was purchased with non-existent money to be installed in GPUs that also have not yet been produced, in order to place them in data centers that have not yet been

I deflate each time I see a Leftist activist or academic "admit" that yes, "woke culture" did go "too far" in this or that historical moment. "Woke culture" is not a thing that actually exists. It is a slur/motivated analytic. You look small-brained when you act like It Lives!
