LGS Rules Allow Eating of Opponents' Cards If They Misgender You | Commander's Herald JONESBORO β€” AK While many local game stores claim to be allies to their transgender customers, on a game-to-game level this can prove hard to enforce. It can often result in many trans Magic players f...

The Democrats' failure to articulate and alternative vision for America is as much a part of how we got here as the Republicans' assertion of theirs.

Except they didn't just fail, they worked actively to thwart anyone who tried.

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

Let me tell you what happens when they can’t manufacture enough parts for critical medical equipment: the companies will exit making that equipment and your insurance company will say β€œtoo bad, do your best to keep it working”.

Phillips did this with pediatric ventilators.

A generation of programmers who've gleefully deskilled these fundamental skills of "paying attention to detail" and "using those details to construct a mental model" is a generation of programmers who can't fucking program.

It's the caring labour of coding that is constantly rendered invisible. Real Men move fast and heroically break things, ripping the future into the present whether we like it or not.

Caring whether it's fit for purpose and methodically examining what's being proposed to assess it is for pussies.

I think @olivia.science's framework of the "displacement" model is phenomenal at highlighting this difference. AI isn't a colleague - when you use it it reduces time maintaining collegiate discussion in your workplace and synchronising goals and renders you the worker into a babysitter for it.

Good thread on the masculinization of coding work, and how "AI agents" deepen the idea that coding as an IC is wholly individualistic.

Supporting Gavin Newsom in the primary is announcing that you'll step over the dead bodies of trans people and unhoused people to get what you personally want. It's a character defect. We can't be friends.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Everything about this charity drive - it existing, everybody chipping in rewards, everybody sharing and promoting it, and all the incredible people donating so much - is just such an overwhelming wave of love and hope every time it comes around.

Together, we raised over $600,000 for @translifeline.org this year. From the bottom of my heart, I'm so grateful. We have come together to say to our trans friends and family that they are loved and that they are not alone.

Trans rights are human rights.

When we gather together, we can make Magic.

Having more trans people living safe and supported is prize and reason enough to donate, but also damn if I wouldn't be jumping for joy if this showed up at my doorstep too.

One of the reasons why there are the horrific transporter accidents in Star Trek is because you know deep down part of the transporter software has regexes in it.

πŸ€” It’s definitely not suspicious at all to have people point out your common Twitter sign off is in the Epstein files and ten completely delete your yacht’s logs right?
