YouTube video by TEDx Talks Why we're giving AI too much credit | Morten Rand-Hendriksen | TEDxSurrey

Technology is a choice. So is how we talk about it. Let's choose language that describes AI as assistive technology we use (or don't use) to help us flourish.

Welcome to my #TEDxSurrey talk:

An argument built on ignoring the consensus of every major medical group and decades of lived experience. Talk therapy isn't harmless when the person using it is reinforcing a religious and cultural message that you can't and won't find acceptance or happiness. Nor will it ever stop at talk therapy.

Today is National Coming Out Day. A day meant to shine a light on the fact that bigotry and homophobia thrive in silence. It makes it all the more frustrating that it seems the Supreme Court is close to reinstating conversion therapy for LGBTQ+ kids.

Every single time reinforces how much the police should not be involved in doing most things.

The FedEx experience "Please, for the love of god, don't call us. No, seriously, you will never be allowed to speak to a human."

"attacks" is now hurl insults and demonize ICE.... ok

Looks like the president's trigger finger is getting itchy again.

YouTube video by Jon Ossoff Ossoff: On authoritarianism

Good summary of the regime's attack of the First Amendment from @ossoff.senate.gov

The killing of Charlie Kirk is deplorable, as were his beliefs. He was an open racist and bigot who used his platform to dehumanize others. While he shouldn't have been killed for his views, I won't ignore that his beliefs empower violence against others.

I am excited for the Federal Bureau of Investigations to be given its new title: Whitehouse Police.

When a hosting company like SiteGround sends you a "Monthly security report" email, that is nothing but an Ad meant to upsell you on their expensive add-ons, it's safe to say they don't have your best interest in mind. They care more about selling you on services by exploiting fear and confusion.

Dr. James Dobson’s death ends a life, but not a legacy of lies and harm (RNS) — His radio show and books shaped generations and fueled the shame that drove queer people like me into conversion therapy.

I can't celebrate his death, but I won't mourn it either. religionnews.com/2025/08/22/d...

If it hasn't been said, fuck Focus on the Family.

Mainly to expand where people could dynamically add in content. If I'm understanding right, yours is limited to connecting after a particular block and further filtered by post type and taxonomy. You may want to dynamically insert in a spot that the block position might not easily allow.

This might go outside of your use case around publishing and posts. But have you considered adding a hook block (like the template part block), that can be added to a template to create an insert position. That way you can have more control over where you can insert a block.

Will he be addressing his cookie preference too?

So many wonderful years not having to think about Kim Davis. Now she's back in the news for all the same horrible reasons. It's taken 10 years for right-wing Christian hate groups to get to this moment. The first shot may stand no chance, but they will keep taking shots till they are successful.

Well, I think I've read enough bad news to screw over my mood for the day. So I guess it's time to check out.

No doubt, and I hope they are successful.

He's branding the White House as just another one of his properties, and he definitely thinks of it as his. You know if they build that shiity ballroom, he will be forever taking credit for it.

US Air Force to deny retirement pay to transgender service members being separated from the service The U.S. Air Force has decided to deny early retirement options for transgender service members with 15 to 18 years of service.

If you needed to be reminded that this administration is bigoted and cowardly, here's your reminder. But betraying the country and the people who serve to protect it comes naturally to this administration.

Fuck the military. I imagine this will go to court. I hope these service members have a slightly better chance there.

I was just thinking of Gravity Wiz SpellBook

I absolutely love Stargate; it's right up there with Farscape.

It's always nice to hear from a man who doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.

I'm just bitching about PayPal today. Their user account feature is utterly broken, and having to coordinate to receive two-factor codes every time I log in to a client's account is a nightmare.

I would love to see WordPress bring the menu back out of the editor so website users can update and edit the menu independently of working in the full site editor. This would go some way to making sure that content can be edited separately from the site structure.

This is the man who wants to be the standard bearer of federal architecture style.

Why write 10 words when 13 will do? Why not add an extra qualifying statement, a third example to your list?

You have to love that republicans have somehow imagined that the pandemic was something done to them, that they were the only ones affected, and are the special victims of it.
