Not incorrect, but I do encourage trans people to see these issues reflected in other identities and life experiences. The lesbian who is kicked out of her home for having a girlfriend. The woman ostracized from her family for coming out about CSA from a parent. Being trans reveals a lot about the world we live in, but in great works of literature — or even conversations with close friends — you’ll find the trans experience rhymes with many others’ throughout human history

For me personally art therapy around happened to me as a child and adult has been the most effective way of treating my ptsd writing and drawing about being a survivor is the only reason I’m still here today Not all art will be for you and that’s ok

X11 is a failed architecture with fundamental flaws and problems. But it's also a single specific service that performs every relevant function that it needs to. And a lot that it doesn't need to, to be fair. Wayland, on the other hand, is a protocol. It's not a specific (c)

This bill could change everything for American Creators and our Freedom of Expression, but it has gotten so little attention. H.R. 4678 The Restoring Artistic Protection Act, introduced by Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA), would create a strong legal presumption that creative works cannot be used as evidence in federal criminal or civil cases. It covers all creative expression, including: • Video Games • Comics & Animation • Movies & TV Shows • Books & Literature • Visual Art & Scripts Fictional storylines, characters, dialogue, artwork, and gameplay would be presumed inadmissible. Prosecutors could only overcome this with a pretrial hearing and clear and convincing evidence that it’s directly relevant, not just character assassination. No more treating art as confession. This would give game devs, comic artists, animators, and filmmakers real breathing room to create bold, edgy, and unfiltered content without lawsuit chill. It currently has 21 Democrat cosponsors, but something this important needs bipartisan support and hearings in Judiciary. Similar protections have already passed in Georgia, Louisiana, and Missouri with Republican backing. After 15 years, Americans are tired of watching their sanitized culture wither away while other countries continue to make great works for the world to enjoy, we want to have pride in the art that our country produces, and it is high time that American creators were able to build freely and without fear again. @JudiciaryGOP @Jim_Jordan @RepThomasMassie @RepChipRoy @RepAndyBiggsAZ @RepMcClintock @RepTroyNehls @repdarrellissa

🦔A researcher invented a fake eye condition called bixonimania, uploaded two obviously fraudulent papers about it to an academic server, and watched major AI systems present it as real medicine within weeks. The fake papers thanked Starfleet Academy, cited funding from the Professor Sideshow Bob Foundation and the University of Fellowship of the Ring, and stated mid-paper that the entire thing was made up. Google's Gemini told users it was caused by blue light. Perplexity cited its prevalence at one in 90,000 people. ChatGPT advised users whether their symptoms matched. The fake research was then cited in a peer-reviewed journal that only retracted it after Nature contacted the publisher. My Take The researcher made the papers as obviously fake as possible on purpose. The AI systems didn't catch it. Neither did the human researchers who cited it in real journals, which means people are feeding AI-generated references into their work without reading what they're actually citing. I've covered the FDA using AI for drug review, the NYC hospital CEO ready to replace radiologists, and ChatGPT Health launching this year. All of that is happening in the same environment where a condition funded by a Simpsons character and endorsed by the crew of the Enterprise was being presented as emerging medical consensus. The people making these deployment decisions seem to believe the pipeline from research to AI to patient is more supervised than it actually is. This experiment suggests it isn't supervised much at all. Hedgie🤗 nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

it’s people who make money in logistics and supply chain management, and people who want to create antimatter boats - trans people like proshippers because global supply chains help deliver critical goods like food and HRT, and oppose antishippers because annihilation is a danger

Surely none of MY smart and lovely followers still hold on to any kind of repulsion towards problematic art of any kind, right... You wouldn't do that would you...
