To do this, anti-trans lawmakers in Kansas moved fast to change the law, overrode the governor’s veto, and pushed for the legal changes to go into effect nearly immediately. That kind of power—to void gender on official documents, to compel gender conformity—is terrifying and it will not stop here.

It’s crazy the sheer number of supposedly rational people who were like “ok but it’s good at health stuff” early on.

nobody wants to hear it but the corollary to the "everybody is 12" theory is that "everybody is 40".

'in this house we believe in science' of course man. you're 40. 'our political opponents will respect the rule of law' they won't bro but you're 40, it's fine. 'its too loud, i have tinnitus' dude,

finished my first week of seeing participants in a community clinic. i know it won't always feel this way, but right now it feels energizing, restorative, & affirming to do this work. savouring this sense of living the dream for the inevitably hard days later. but i am definitely in the right place.

This was one of the most interesting, candid conversations I’ve had while reporting from the tech beat.

@anildash.com did NOT pull any punches diagnosing what is happening with the tech industry.

it must have felt so good to be the digital media manager when the word came down to unschedule the piece from the 60 minutes feed but no one said anything about unscheduling it from the international website

about two weeks ago i got together with two friends and we went down through every district in the province and we couldnt see the liberals winning more than 15 seats. which seemed so unreasonable at the time that i just assumed we were extremely pessimistic and out of touch. anyway. we live in hell

Wakeham says no link between N.L. wildfires, oil industry in campaign where climate change largely absent | CBC News The 2025 provincial election is happening in the direct aftermath of one of the worst climate-related disasters in Newfoundland and Labrador’s recent history.

To be crystal clear: it's not about what the scientists "told CBC News", not just informed opinion. The science itself is very clear. You can question perhaps the degree of NL contribution to climate change, but it's fact that the oil from here is a contributor. Full stop. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
