Reducing human value to what we can be trained to do is straight up technofascism. Every fascism has its suhumans. To technofascists, humans are the subhumans.

For LGBTQ Winter Olympians, visibility matters just as much as medals There's a record-breaking number of out LGBTQ+ athletes competing in the 2026 Winter Olympics, including medal winners for Team USA.

@JerusalemDemsas on X: clearly you're not smart enough to engage with the actual arguments 

is our poll out of sync with what other pollsters are finding? do you have any substantive comments to make about the methodological choices?

No, I suppose that would require reading...

Just want to be clear that Demsas is a journalist, Shor is a former campaign guy with a math degree and Jain is a software engineer. None of these people are trained or educated in research design, survey analysis or social science.

100% grift all the way down. Get your polling from actual experts.

If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''

Good Luck. Have Fun. Donโ€™t Die. was a weird and fun movie. A lot of love went into this. Thereโ€™s a scene where you can see a teen scrolling through slop on their phone, lots of disturbing images but they really felt like something an algorithm could spit out. Really hope it does well.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop.

Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough.

Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.

SHEโ€™S FINISHED! My 5-foot-long Enterprise D oil painting is complete after nearly 100 hours of work!

I remember being 13 years old or so and trying to draw her and it was so hard, and all I wanted was to be able to do something like this. Truly a dream come true. ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ––

An opinion I pretty firmly hold is that everyone should make a song, paint a painting, act in something, and write a book even if all of those things end up being objectively terrible

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Photograph from 1911 taken by Herbert Ponting whilst with Scott's Antarctic Expedition

The monochrome photo is taken from within a cave. The walls of the cave are made of ice. The cave entrance is in the mid distance with two figures standing looking out towards a distant ship. Between them and the ship there is first a 'beach' of ice before the sea itself. The ship could be up to 800 metres away

What makes the photo so special is that where the figures are at the cave entrance there is a band of very white snow and ice (contrasting with the comparatively dark inside of the cave) that creates a stark framework in which the men and the ship are captured. It is made even more dramatic by the fact that the cave entrance is at least 30 metres high and is in the shape of a distorted elipse with the tail sloping off to the right at the top of the elipse

The photo being in monochrome in a largely white environment makes the photographers skill all the more laudable

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo

This is pure, unabashed bigotry.

If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party.

But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence.

A stain on our Congress.

I spent most of last year working on this mural for a new theatre space at the Children's Museum. The theatre is also a meeting space for a hawk-watching group so the mural features local hawks, birds, and plants. The flowers on the pillars separating the walls are the state flower, Sego Lily.
