I would think that if the courts actually did that, the proper response would be to add “rain fire and brimstone on every judge fool enough to do that” to the manifesto.

A noble goal.

To be fair, Molly Cobb is a goddamn icon, best fictional astronaut there ever was.

Just realized that Pam's poem in For All Mankind S2E5 is basically an update of Sappho Fragment 31.

Oooh, thought of a better one: I have an IMDB page. (And no, not for anything I’ve done at my current job.)

Took me, like, half an hour to think of anything.

My existence led to the creation of two different youth roller hockey leagues.

I gather that everyone here is 100% certain Skrain Dukat is a Cardassian supremacist.

I also gather you are all trapped in an epistemic chamber sealed tighter than the one around Moab IV.

So, who here actually knew that Dukat's daughter is half-Bajoran?

And how does that influence your certainty?

My girlfriend and I are rewatching to prepare for it. I forgot how funny the writing could be!

You're trapped in the last TV show you watched, where are you?

On the Moon, apparently.

Yup--I just listened to the hearing, and the Judge took the parties by surprise by indicating he'd issue such a judgment. USG counsel asked for some time to brief the merits and the judge responded: "There are no merits." [3]

This is weirdly more appropriate than a lot of the mix-ups I've seen. On one hand, we're talking about two completely different religions, and on the other hand, if a Mardi Gras party and a Purim party had booked the same hall you can imagine no one noticing until the next day.

THE ONLY THING THAT CAN KILL A BAD MCDONNELL JET WITH A GUN IS A GOOD MCDONNELL JET WITH A GUN

The ad insertion tech used in pro sports broadcasts these days weirds me out a bit. How much of what I’m watching is actually real?

Homophobia is transphobia. Historically, bigots w/ PhDs told parents "your kid will grow up gay if we don't do conversion therapy" and, once being gay was removed from the DSM, told the same parents of the same kids "your kid will grow up trans if we don't do CT."

The talk to your friends app and the witness the horrors app being the same app is not great for the mental health is it

Cis people get annoyed by a trans woman once and get an opinion column in the Times. I get annoyed by trans women everyday and have zero opinion columns. This is transmisogyny.

I am very much enjoying KBJ’s “you came up with this stupid fucking test and now you all are going to have to live with it” routine.

The best thing about our name, Becky, is that there are so many flavors of it. 💛

if you’re cis and you don’t get it this is LITERAL TORTURE

it will result in dead trans people

and with their other goal of making us “sexually explicit” for existing

you see the pipeline right?

we exist -> we’re jailed for it -> we’re tortured and die

WE NEED YOU TO STOP THIS

“Cruel and unusual” is a massive understatement.

Image classifier that has only been trained on pictures of scary drones: Getting a lot of scary drone vibes from this

"Seeks revenge" is a bizarre way to describe "suing over discrimination".

I think people think we're exaggerating when we say the widespread use of the term "biological sex" as a term itself isn't organic. This data isn't anomalous, it comports with everything we've seen about the specific use of the term.

A collection of windows. One says “Apollo 11 Lunar Module AGC simulation running!”; another has a spew of textual telemetry data; a third has a keypad and a couple of blank seven-segment displays; the last has a keypad, a grid of warning lights (none are illuminated), and a set of seven-segment displays showing the following in bright green: PROG: Blank VERB: 16 NOUN: 65 +00000 +00038 +02666

I just got an emulator for the Apollo Guidance Computer up and running, see you all next year

(Thanks to Danielle for some VirtualBox help.)

As I scroll through triumphal pro-war tweets, thinking about this image a lot today:

Please don't post photos of dead children, or videos of dead children, or yell DONT LOOK AWAY. You are sick. Log off. Touch grass. You have PTSD and are inflicting it on us all. If you are not in media/ a conflict researcher/ etc you do NOT need to consume Horrors. Blocking lots right now.

A meme against paypro censorship with the MasterCard logo. The red section says "We Hate Gay People," the yellow section says "We Hate Women's Bodies," the middle reads: "We Fucking Hate You." Text: "There are some things money can't buy, hating artists and women's bodies? Priceless."

just thinking about Crassus, possibly the wealthiest Roman to ever live, and how his attempted conquest of the middle east ended with his death (molten gold being poured down his throat)

cause…uh…i’m a history buff, not because of any contemporary analogs
