I love Portland Frog and the AMPHIFA movement so I made some protest art to go along with the movement. No AI was used to illustrate the frog - I drew it myself. Feel free to use this image - just don’t claim it as your own or sell it.

This is unbelievable.

Conversion therapy increases fatalities. It does the opposite of what treatments are supposed to do. We ban medical treatments that claim to heal while actually harming. That's not a free speech issue, it's a malpractice issue.

When writing an article/book, you may experience the situation where you make a non-trivial change every time you look at it.

This means one of two things:

i) You're on the right track, so keep on editing (and presumably, improving) it.

ii) You should have submitted it a month ago (or longer).

I just got a VERY interesting email that allies in congress were upset that so many of my readers were calling about the anti-trans provisions. I'm here to say: good. I won't let them throw our rights under the bus by cover of night.

All's that to say, keep up the calls. They're hearing you.

Instead of the next judicial education session, all the judges watch this tiktok instead.

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum.

This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

I have low vision and a degree in data science. My advice: use longer image descriptions for code, offer cheat sheets in a format other than PDF, provide copies of content shown on the board so student can view on their own device, allow use of VSCode or other IDE for robust screen reader support

"Well, maybe I'll just use Instagram for..."

No. Get off Instagram, get off Threads, stop using any Meta product, do not start using a new Meta product. There is no flavor of toxic waste that is good to eat.

had to read the article to understand wtf was going on here which is that Meta is literally feeding Instagram pictures parents took of their teenage daughters to middle aged men as ads for Threads

This is how the most epic side quest begins. Do NOT miss this chance.

This is Thanos. He has figured out how to rest and babysit at the same time. Very impressive, very Montessori. 13/10 (TT: thanosthesaint)

David Letterman on his career mocking presidents: “Beating up on these people, rightly or wrongly, accurately or perhaps inaccurately, in the name of comedy—not once were we squeezed by anyone from any governmental agency, let alone the dreaded FCC.”

Make art! Tell your story! Connect through music!

they are furious to the point of rage over the fact that obama reminded them he is black and in doing so implicated them in racial prejudice

Life is feeling more and more like one big DnD campaign

Clemson doesn’t have a law school and it shows.

I hope every mlb team that made tributes, Democratic legislator who flew flags at half staff, and pundit/online-type who scolded people for reminding us of verifiable past statements learns that they just helped them get to this. Your decency can only be used against you now.

How dare he lie straight into one of my favorite microphones, the Electro-Voice RE20. That mic:
