told the story before about how I only got any of the many low-level admin jobs I applied for once I stopped being honest about being trans I just didn’t say it and let them assume I was a cis girl, then just "forgot" to present my ID to HR until they forgot about it boom: respectable university job public-facing, too. not something they let trannies do if they can avoid it the thing that gets me is that I was going for charity and public sector shit, like these are supposed to be the good guys but I could see the transmisogyny manifest like a fucking aura when it came up the other method ofc was to sign up with a temp agency, because then you just get placed and you can temp to perm with people who have to let you work at least one day, even if they know you’re a tranny. and if you’re friendly and competent and normal, congrats, you can push through the latent TME tranny hate

I NEED EVERYONE TO STOP HOLDING THEIR BODY IMAGE TO A STANDARD SET BY MEN WHO ARE ATTRACTED TO TEENAGERS.

I’ve literally been saying this since I was a teenager:

Grabbing every pre-HRT trans girl who says she won't start unless it turns her into an elven anime character by the shoulders and saying this until a vein pops out of my forehead.

The talk to your friends app and the witness the horrors app being the same app is not great for the mental health is it

US Troops killed all the guards at Dachau for this kind of shit.

My favorite character for sure, she's so great in this show

Disclose.tv @disclosetv NOW - EU Parliament votes to accept a report, that calls for "the full recognition of trans women as women" as part of the EU priorities for the UN CSW on "women's rights and gender equality." • • I| 0:14 12:31 pm • 12 Feb 2026 • 174K Views

The EU has just voted, by a VERY wide margin, for the full recognition of trans women as women…!

Like, just look at the way this is framed “a 15% chance [that genAI is] already conscious”. If it’s a theory, a hunch, how can we possibly test percentages? Where did that 15 percent come from? This is just saying numbers in the hopes it makes a wild fantasy sound legitimate.

An extract from a magazine that reads “Will Als achieve personhood? thinks yes—and soon—in Science. "There's already experts who could argue that Al is at least as cognitively complex as animals," he writes. "Some think there's a 15 percent chance that current AI systems are already conscious."”

Okay, I’m not trying to focus on anyone in particular, but we need to deal with this rhetoric, because it’s utterly ridiculous and it’s coming from public figures who are supposed to be experts in the field. No computer is about to achieve ‘personhood’. Nobody but grifters or fools believe that.

Right! I get so frustrated that this is what’s coming out of the mouths of “experts” (this was from a tech journalist) that non-experts trust to give them true, sourced and repeatable information. Just confidently telling people unicorns are real, as a Zoologist 😭

Same, but at this point they gonna need some external help I think

And importantly they can't articulate *why* or *how* this would be true, just handwave wish fulfillment. No explanation on how a string prediction engine could ever be anything more than that, obviously no way to verify. It's all part of the gift for more investment. And no addressing the slavery

Oh you mean the company funded by PETER THIEL?

Folf on X: "Discord is apparently switching age verification providers to Persona due to the bypasses... which means everything they said about it being client-side and face images not being uploaded is now false" / X Discord is apparently switching age verification providers to Persona due to the bypasses... which means everything they said about it being client-side and face images not being uploaded is now false

"Why can't we have a calm discussion about AI?"

Cuz the data centers are being built carelessly and at speed, polluting poor neighborhoods, cuz it's drinking my fucking aquifer, and cuz all my art and writing have been plagisrized while the worst assholes crow about my impending obsolescense...

how bad do you have to fuck up to allow an exploit in fucking NOTEPAD

need the industry to stop betting on live service games if they can't sustain the livelihood of people who work on them.

Technology comes in 4 cyclical phases.

1. Early adoption by IT, LGBT, artists, furries, etc to escape the Torment Nexus.

2. Everyone follows for the content created by the early adopters.

3. Enshitification drives away early adopters to make it investor friendly.

4. It becomes the Torment Nexus.

Please check on the trans people in your life today.

The anti trans rhetoric is everywhere.

Those on the right are purposefully stoking fear and division in an attempt to destroy an entire marginalized group.

We can’t let them get away with it.

Trans rights are human rights.

The incident in BC unfortunately

Yup! Small field too, gotta help each other out with good opportunities

i think the most likely scenario for AI in the workplace will be a separation between people who use AI and think it works when it doesn't, and then another group of people who don't use AI who end up picking up the slack for the AI users.

a version of the famous lesbian meme comic "the commitment ceremony", featuring Zelda and Link from the video game The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, and Twilight princess. In the first panel, Link and Zelda are dressed in rather masc attire (her with her typical BOTW & TOTK trousers, boots and blouse, him, with his famous Twilight princess outfit), Zelda says "Wait just a minute... someone here needs to be femme...". Next panel, Zelda wearing her Twilight princess dress and accessories, Link wearing his Frostbite outfit from TOTK, both femme, but still uncoordinated, game iteration-wise.

My fave lesbian couple
Already 2k people on bsky 💙 thank you!!
