A screenshot of a Facebook post where a person named Andy ask the Well now “What the hell is transgender?” The Royal Canadian Air Force account response with “That’s a pretty big question asked in a pretty small way, Andy. ‘Transgender’ putting describes someone whose gender – who they know themselves to be – doesn’t match the sex they were assigned at birth. It’s not new, and it’s certainly not a fad. People have lived this experience for as long as people have existed; we’re just finally talking about it openly. You don’t have to fully understand it right away, most learning takes time, but we can always start from a place of respect. That’s how decent folks handle things they’re still getting used to.”

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

I love Final Fantasy. "Welcome to the Kingdom of Everlandia. We have wizards with guns. Ohh nooo the pope king is actually an evil spirit from the future named Glorb" Hell yeah let's go kill Glorb!!!!!

tbh I don't think this is that niche but man we gotta make LIVING accessible for people who don't have smart phones and/or data. I'm talking bus schedules, restaurant menus, doing your laundry, accessing social security and unemployment, all of it. we goddamn GOTTA dude

I dunno, if you can’t even find common ground with them on the “pedophiles are bad” issue, maybe they just aren’t fucking interested in meeting in the middle on anything

An AI slop factory apparently tried to rewrite our article about AI not replacing workers en masse, but hit the paywall... so just summarised the paywall. If this is the robot that takes my job I'll be v embarrassed

Guy who follows 215,000 accounts: holy shit

Sooner or later, we are going to discover not whether, but how many people have been murdered as a result of this regime. And God I hope we have a government that will treat it for what it is: murder based in bigotry

Yes, the arrest and possible deportation of Mahmoud Khalil is bad because it makes it easier for the state to illegally arrest and deport American citizens. But exclusively framing this as a slippery slope misses that this is also an injustice unto itself.

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

He looks like he’s trying to figure out if the copyright page is part of the novel or not.
