Two vibes you can feel today:1) Trans is done 2) AI is flattening

I did an intake appointment for a PCP (i.e., a family doctor/general practitioner which I didn't have until now)...the first page in the forms was gender crazy. I just ignored the form.No one bothered me.Even in gender crazy places, people are starting to stop pretending.

I think unlike "gender identity", everyone really does have a personality (however much they might dislike their own).

The moment I heard about the mass shooting I felt guilty wondering if the shooter was trans identified...Within just a few words of hearing the NPR reporting I could tell with the contorted language.

I just saw a body cam video of what appear to be a group of men and a woman, all trans identified it seems, involved in the gruesome murder of a member of their group. All read as if they were in a deviant art induced state of arrested development with access to guns.I am swearing off body cam videos from now on

What is the reasoning behind why the Epstein accusers are not simply releasing the names of the people that abused them? Seriously asking.Why is it only 15h ago this was decided as a possible course of action?https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5yvpgyjed8o

I'm waiting for the NYT opinion column advocating for trans women to be the exclusive holders of guns.

Add a header to your paper draft saying you protest these terms at Springer and upload it anyway.

A mostly vibe coded munsell color system tutorial. It's the game "set" but you need to match three squares with hue, value or chroma. Would love it if you gave it a quick tryhttps://www.mlorp.com/vhc_set

If you get a chance Flick, mind trying it again and tell me if it looks better (seems to look fine on my el cheapo android)? Won't bug you again ;)https://www.mlorp.com/vhc_set/

The Exploratorium is a world class hands-on science museum in San Francisco. The color science exhibits are truly flawless. There have always been gender fumes present in the building (there is a super weird exhibit that mentions Chelsea Manning), but nothing terribly overt.I went there today to see this stuff. I told the kids at the front desk that this is insane and harmful to kids.Apparently sex *is* binary, but gender uses the same categories...and sex isn't always determined by your chromosomes (it is, always no matter who you are).

How is it that so many of us are able to pick up on trans committed crimes so quickly from news stories? Because the sex of the perpetrator is one of the first facts presented about a crime normally.A gunman opened fire...Right then.https://apnews.com/article/mormon-church-shooting-michigan-dcb79ee701b0b8076bf73e30e10ba2b7

There is a lot of social media attention to Goodall's death. I don't mean to be distasteful but it is often forgot that she was "caught for plagiarism:https://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2013/04/02/why-the-jane-goodall-plagiarism-case-worries-me/Of course, I don't think she did the "chaotic note taking" like she said. I presume it was some underpaid humallm that produced the output under high pressure conditions.It makes you wonder just what is true about these sorts of, apparently, composite celebrities and what the parasocial relationships that people engage in mean.

That line gets at it better than I remember seeing so far.Pro-Palestinian activists should be able to respond with quizzical looks when accused of anti-semitism, point at the many (very credible) jewish leaders on their side, roll their eyes while distinguishing zionism from judaism etc. The fact that the murderer in Manchester was an islamist isn't at all surprising....but then it is quite difficult to be pro-Palestinian and anti-islamist. The people that are, don't seem to have much sway in the world.

I was confused at first without the date sorting. There is an undercurrent you see in comments that I don't quite see articulated IRL or even in speaking on video...if you try to engage with some of these people (I know you are out there on fedi) you don't get clear answers as to what is driving them.

Can you name any other context when the vague notion of one's identity is vita to to health and well being. Aren't people called all sorts of names by other people regularly, rightly or wrongly, and expected to ignore it?
