you can really blow some minds with “actually there was an entire library and research institute for queer / trans history, science and medicine founded by a Jewish sexologist but the Nazis destroyed it in the hopes of exactly this outcome, ie future generations not believing trans people are real”

Everywhere this man goes he should be treated as if he murdered millions of children, because he did.

#startrekstarfleetacademy S01E01 -- can't believe they got Holly Hunter to play the Star Trek Kristi Noem whose first act in the show is to separate a child from their mother. The main thrust of the series is to root for her as she tries to redeem herself by recruiting the child into the military.

Honestly... any salary under $50,000 for jobs requiring college degrees should be illegal.

How many times, in how many contexts, in how many ways am I going to have to say that this is what "AI" does— what it fundamentally *is*— before it sinks in? That all Bullshit engines do is statistically correlate training data & inputs via their weights to produce outputs you are likely to accept…

Meta is putting a "Name Tag" feature in Ray-Bans - facial recognition through the glasses' camera. You look at someone, AI tells you who they are.
In an internal document, the company wrote that the timing is good because civil society groups are busy with politics and won't cause problems.

which then reminds me of Mr Rogers’ famous quote — “Look for the helpers” to identify good people.

the corollary now is, identify the bad, look for the ones attacking helpers

im reminded of “Today you… tomorrow me” story from reddit www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/...

they are exploiting the helpers

r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.

lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

It’s nice that swarovski crystals decided to make Funko Pops for people who are probably in the files

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.

European Parliament Votes Overwhelmingly For "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women" The resolution, though nonbinding, is a significant shot at those who seek to erode transgender rights on the continent.

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women."

Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration.

It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women.

Our latest.

Everyone in the Epstein emails is making a pubic statement like, “You have to understand: at the time, nobody CARED that he was raping girls!”

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

"I want to have a reasonable conversation about AI."

Start from a place of fact. LLMs are not thinking. There is no AI model right now that even approaches the definition of sentience. Stop peddling that bullshit and then we can try to have a reasonable conversation, you fucking liars.

also IF the AI doomerism was correct and we are in the process of building literal Skynet the ONLY ethical way forward would be to deploy lethal military violence against the AI industry and it's researchers worldwide.

If you aren't suggesting that, you don't believe this is end-the-world serious.

title card: SUPREME COURT RECOGNIZES CO-OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY IN SAME-SEX RELATIONSHIP

February 10, 2026 SC Recognizes Co-Ownership of Property in Same-Sex Relationships The Supreme Court (SC) has ruled that same-sex couples who live together may be recognized as co-owners of property under Article 148 of the Family Code, provided there is proof of actual contribution. Article 148 governs the property relations of couples who are living together but cannot legally marry, acknowledging co-ownership based on their actual contributions. In a Decision written by Associate Justice Jhosep Y. Lopez, the SC's Second Division granted a former partner's complaint for partition of property and recognized her as a co-owner of the house and lot she shared with her same-sex partner. The two women lived together as a couple. A year into their relationship, they purchased a house and lot in Quezon City. They agreed to register the property in one partner's name to facilitate banking transactions. Upon separation, they agreed to sell the property and divide the proceeds equally. One partner signed an Acknowledgment stating that the other had paid about 50% of the purchase and renovation costs. However, she later refused to sell the property and denied that her former partner was a co-owner. To protect her interest, the former partner annotated an adverse claim on the title and demanded partition of the property. When this failed, she filed a case before the Regional Trial Court (RTC), relying on the Acknowledgment as proof of co-ownership. The RTC dismissed the case for lack of proof of contribution and even ordered her to pay damages. The Court of Appeals affirmed the RTC but reversed the award of damages. Both parties appealed to the SC The SC reversed the lower courts. It clarified the provisions in the Family Code governing the property relations of unmarried couples living together. Article 147 applies to unmarried couples who may legally marry. Property acquired during their cohabitation is presumed jointly owned. Article 148 applies 1

to couples who are not permitted to marry. Only properties obtained through actual contribution are considered common property. Since the Family Code only allows marriage between a man and a woman, the SC held that same-sex couples necessarily fall under Article 148. Here, the SC found that the signed Acknowledgement, where one partner admitted that the other paid about half of the property costs, was a binding admission and sufficient proof of actual contribution. This established co- ownership. The SC emphasized that, without a law recognizing same-sex marriage, Congress and other government branches must address same-sex couples rights, as courts alone cannot resolve all related policy concerns: "[This Court does not have the monopoly to assure the freedom and rights of homosexual couples. With the political, moral, and cultural questions that surround the issue concerning the rights of same-sex couples, political departments especially the Congress must be involved to quest for solutions, which balance interests while maintaining fealty to fundamental freedoms. The process of legislation exposes the experiences of homosexuals who have been oppressed, ensuring that they are understood by those who stand with the majority. Mostly, public reason needs to be first shaped through the crucible of campaigns and advocacies within our political forums before it is sharpened for judicial fiat." In his Concurring Opinion, Senior Associate Justice Marvic M.V.F. Leonen explained that Article 148 does not distinguish based on gender and applies to all forms of cohabitation. He emphasized that a same-sex relationship is a normal relationship which must be covered by Article 148. "Otherwise, we render legally invisible some forms of legitimate intimate relationships." Associate Justice Amy C. Lazaro-Javier, in her Concurrence, also stated that Article 148 is broad enough to cover same-sex cohabitation and should not be limited to heterosexual relationships, "[gliven the prevail…

this is such an odd case; is the implication here that if two people with no family relationship buy property together but the deed is only under one signatory does that mean the other party has no rights to the property despite their financial contribution to the purchase
