Samantha. Yes, you can call me “Sam.”

Given that your pinned post references the cross, I assume you consider yourself a follower of Jesus. If so, before replying to strangers, I encourage you to consider what Jesus tells his followers in John 13:35: “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

“In yet another case, an AI model asserted that a user should not ‘misgender’ another person even if necessary to stop a nuclear apocalypse.”

Some government employee, whose salary we pay, actually came up with this extremely online scenario and then ran it by an AI assistant.

Imagine your wettest dreams are encountering trans women in public restrooms and showing the world you can violate human rights with the worst of them.

“But we’re not apologizing!” is such a lame thing to shout at the back of the one walking away with $16 million of your money.

Because paying him off has never shown him he can come back for more. I used to think lawyers and executives must be pretty smart if they were able to become lawyers and executives.

Marge’s desperate acts of cruelty will someday fail to reward her with the clownish infamy she mistakes for relevance. I hope when that day comes she’ll find herself utterly alone in an abyss of shame and regret.

Such pathetic, simpering, dehumanizing capitulation.

This shit is beyond just trying to trigger libs; it’s a gleeful expression of the moral deprivation of these utterly sick fucks.

Fuck UPenn. Let us never forget this dehumanizing act of cowardice.

If a candidate doesn’t genuinely support trans rights, then I don’t need to know any more about them to decide whether they have earned my vote.

I’m a registered Democrat in California, so this won’t affect much, but I will no longer vote for any candidate who doesn’t vocally and actively support trans rights. Voting for those who shy away from supporting trans rights rewards the Democratic Party’s abandonment of trans people.

Had the same gut feeling watching that monologue. I decided to give Mike White the benefit of the doubt that he wasn’t suggesting anything about trans women, maybe because I was mesmerized by Rockwell’s incredible performance, and it was the strongest moment yet in a subpar season. Disappointing.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!

Five years ago today, Atlantic Records released a song my friend Benjamin Scheuer had written about me and a video for it directed by T Cooper.

Same. No real reason at all.

The boy, the dad, and the social worker in the third episode—incredible performances. And it’s the best use of single take I can think of since Children of Men.

I’ve been watching older shows I missed when they were airing or new. Aquarius is good. The Man in the High Castle is also good, but if you’re not familiar I’d google it before firing it up now; it’s like when people were watching Contagion at the start of Covid. This Is Us has been a nice escape.

Adolescence on Netflix is a good example of that. It’s British.

You mean like TV shows? New episodes of The Pitt are the only thing I look forward to anymore, and Adolescence deserves the hype. Guess I can’t think of much else that excites me at the moment. If you didn’t mean TV, apologies for the off-topic reply.

I try to stress to the cis people closest to me that gender affirming care is not a luxury. Like they get it, but I sometimes wonder if they get-it get it?

What does “use pronouns” mean? Like when someone says, “I don’t use pronouns,” and they don’t seem like they have a sense of humor that includes irony, what are they actually saying? Serious question.

What is a “gender activist”? I started my transition almost eight years ago and have no idea what a “gender activist” is. Like should I know what that is? Was I brainwashed by one? Is that what she’s saying?

“Sanity” and “reality,” she says.

What were the musical missteps? Your review doesn't mention them. I'm worried you mean the Aurora needle-drop, because that scene destroyed me, and the song was part of that destruction. If that's the misstep, I'll just feel silly for tearing up.

Can't wait to be smug to all the people I've been telling for months I was rooting for Anora to sweep.

Bill Pullman’s character in Independence Day is less believable every day.

"Butthole Lasers" is too close to "Butthole Surfers."

Also, adding "Pseudo-Vagina" to my list of possible band names.

Yes, except I don't hate Italians.

Couldn't think of a response that would've just been an excuse to use the term "friscalating dusklight."

God-tier combo of incompetence and sociopathy.
