It's especially bullshit given that there are multiple cases where the women's division was created via this pattern: 1) men and women compete side by side 2) women do well and beat men a couple times 3) women banned 4) time passes 5) separate women's division created with different rules
The real unfair competition women are being forced into with men is having women's sports constantly separated off as a distinct event which is made to compete commercially with much better funded and socially and institutionally enfranchised men's sporting events & found inadequate by that standard

A reminder, because it is almost that time of year: More children are killed by cars on Halloween than any other day of the year, by far. www.vox.com/future-perfe... If you're a parent, I hope you'll do what you can to keep kids safe. If you're driving on Saturday, PLEASE exercise extra caution.

I think it's beautiful when art effects people so deeply they'll go to these lengths to try to save a particular project, I just wish we had any kind of organized body for creative workers across industries that could funnel this energy into actually supporting the people who created the art
Does it need to be said that Mass Effect shouldnโt exist without the developers and team that was working on this game? Either they come back and make the game they were, or Mass Effect dies. kotaku.com/mass-effect-...
insane that it took 10 years for people to start speaking candidly about donald trump on the national stage lmao
El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

Google was really trying to hide its water use figures, to the degree that it got the council to try to keep its water use figures secret. The community finally got the actual numbers and found out Google was using 29 percent of the water in the community. www.wired.com/story/what-t...

This is one of the most holy sh*t stories Iโve ever read in my life. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...
to be slightly less fearmongery it seems to mostly be ai agents accessing the accounts of people who first granted them access because they got an โai assistantโ or whatever but they are doing unauthorized activity in the accounts now, but after the php debacle this week who knows what theyโre in

Voters who Googled how to donate to Talarico got an AI answer that led them to give to a different senator. A network of fake news websites seeded messaging about state & local candidates that AI answers picked up on. My story on how the AI midterms are going: www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

i think trump being elected sent white people on a decades long Spiral bc now they're being affected by policies/laws/etc. that used to only mostly affect poc. and that first dose of Real Actual Fear i think explains why so much of the vibe online has gotten more and more rancid over the years since
bsky is full of people who are just as reactionary as people on the rest of the internet (bc people as a whole are deeply intensely hair trigger reactionary atm) but fsr like to pretend they *aren't* being super reactionary?? ๐ญ not to shade the userbase again ofc

Hundreds of thousands of children were literally killed due to Elon Muskโs actions. Yet you will still see people treating him like just any public figure, buying Teslas, etc. The world is a dark place. Especially the parts that treat the rich as inherently more valuable than everyone else.
