There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.

Progressive activists are being disappeared and deported and we are still getting conservative whine-fests in national outlets

So how will this be enforced? Do people need to show a photo of their privates from when they were born before they can get to a toilet to pee?

As a biologist, I find the term “biological woman” meaningless at best, a dangerously unscientific cudgel at worst. As a woman, perception and projection of my gender identity is not infringed upon in the least by anyone else’s. I stand with my trans sisters.

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.

Me: "The things you’ve told me today are—every single google workspace user has been forced into having this plagiarism software in email and drive, putting their security and potentially in cases like mine contracts and entire business at risk."

Google: "Yes."

I want to share my experience today with Google support, trying to get Gemini (their AI/plagiarism machine) turned off in my Google workspace account. That account is where I personally do all my work communication—I am an editor, and most of my work contracts explicitly ban any use of Generative AI

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.
