Poster complaining about they/them pronouns caught out saying if they didn't know somebody's gender, "I will not refer to THEM using any pronouns until THEIR gender is clear.

A beautiful gender pronoun trap.

sometimes i get really sensitive about the way people talk about my art in my books and i do worry sometimes that my reach exceeds my grasp as a drafter but im honestly kind of happy that it looks a little goofy. iโ€™m the only person who could have drawn it that way i think, and thatโ€™s kind of nice.

I donโ€™t think you can grow as a person unless you develop a real joy for discomfort. Whether itโ€™s in the media you consume or in the day to day experience of being alive, you should marinate in dissonance, despair, and disorientation.

Running our warp drive at maximum constantly would damage the ship and the space we're sailing through. The same goes for you. You cannot operate at or above your maximum all the time. I give you permission to slow down.

I know a lot of you have already heard or read about BDS Movement's call against Microsoft, and felt weird and bad about it all, but decided to move forward as normal because of some degree of ambiguity.

"What service is Microsoft providing?"

Here it is, clear as day. A direct line to death.

Gender Census 2025 Please take the time to complete our survey. Your feedback is important.

The survey needs 870 responses per day for the rest of the survey to be on track to beat the 48,000 standing record.

It's ~10:40pm UK time now. We only need about 175 more people to participate before midnight. I don't know how likely that is, but...

Got gender? survey.gendercensus.com

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025!

It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

Throwback Thursday: This 1944 pic shows an overloaded tram on Brunswick St Fitzroy, quickly heading to the pub before 6pm closing, now that Dry July has ended. This dangerous practice doesnโ€™t happen these days due to the increased availability of alcohol everywhere. #YarraTrams

On the YouTube social media ban | Philip Mallis

My take on the social media ban as an Australian content creator: I think this will significantly and disproportionally impact local content.

See my post for why: https://philipmallis.com/2025/07/31/on-the-youtube-social-media-ban/

MAN: Hmmโ€ฆ!
MAN: Whatโ€ฆdoโ€ฆIโ€ฆwantโ€ฆtoโ€ฆdoโ€ฆtonight?

PANEL 2: MATTIE rolls her eyes. The phone pipes up as well.
MATTIE: Are you asking a chatbot? Come on.
PHONE: SEEING FRIENDS IS ALWAYS A GREAT WAY TO SEE YOUR FRIENDS.
MAN: Oh, are you A.I. SHAMING ME? Wow. I didn't think you were a bigot.

PANEL 3: MATTIE, arms spread wide. The MAN strokes his chin.
MATTIE: What? Nobody was doing this a year ago. It's completely unnecessary!
MAN: Huh, that's true. I wonder why that happened.

PANEL 4: The MAN types on his phone, brow furrowed.
MAN: Whyโ€ฆamโ€ฆIโ€ฆdoingโ€ฆthis

Just because a thought is loud doesnโ€™t mean itโ€™s true.
Especially the mean ones
Sometimes the strongest weapon of all is your mind.
Let it protect you, not hurt you.

Went to a few flea markets today. I was the only person masked but two different unmasked people came up and mentioned that they liked my face mask and that it was smart to wear a mask right now with everything going around. Folks, I am begging you to realize you can mask to protect yourselves too.
