"A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women."

helenwebberley.comAre transgender sports bans really about protecting women? | Dr Helen WebberleyThe data says no. Those most hostile to women are most in favour of banning trans athletes.

i will never not be militant about trans rights cis people: demand nothing less than full, unequivocal rights for trans people and do not accept from anyone the idea that it is naive to demand it we deserve what you have

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Well this is eleventy-million kinds of Fucked Up. @latimes.com (who once contracted with me as a freelance reviewer and whom I struggled to get paid by) asserts that *merely reading its website* constitutes a permanent waiver of your right to sue it under *any circumstances*.

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

β€˜Wicker’ stars Alexander SkarsgΓ₯rd as a man made entirely of wicker, complete with a rock-hard wicker dick. But what about splinters? Bacteria? Degradation? Would it be advisable, from a sexual-health perspective, to mount a basket dick? We asked a gynecologist: vulture.visitlink.me/DNQwX5

*flings myself about* I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR YEARRSSSSS plus the loss of Behind the Music-type shows, popular media no longer casually educates the viewer like it used to and we're suffering culturally as a result!!!

The phrase "sold local election night coverage" is so gross by itself, and then you get to the DraftKings of it all.

Scoop from @brettlogiurato.bsky.social: CBS has sold its local election night coverage to DraftKings, stirring more controversy inside the David Ellison-owned company. Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/cbs-draftk...

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Fight fascists because they hurt people. Because they're ruinous and corrupt. Being gay and transphobic or fat shaming or whatever new, repulsive, prejudiced attack that makes you feel good while hurting people who should be your allies is making this worse.

Hey, just a humble, respectful request. For the love of fucking god, stop fucking attacking Donald Trump with blatant and repulsive homophobia. If you think going after fascists by calling them gay or producing AI slop of them in dresses or making out, you're part of the fucking problem.

Gonna do a Nathan Fielder bit where I get an MBA, become an exec at a game company, pitch the idea of selling more copies of a game than it cost to make and then eventually become CEO of all video games.
