It was a combination of intense recognition and intense annoyance at how contemptuous she was of her audience.

Watching “Pluribus.” As a fantasy romance author, I would just like to say that I would handle this WAY better.

Well done! A Massachusetts church displayed an “ICE was here” sign in its Nativity scene.

At least one other boat, the one with the Colombian fisherman, was adrift and displaying a distress signal with its engine out of the water. To attack a disabled vessel in distress and signaling for assistance is basically in the same category as killing shipwrecked survivors clinging to wreckage.

We'll entertain disability cops once yous have entertained every disabled person getting the access to the diagnoses and healthcare we need because we don't need more randos yelling at us in the street for not performing our disabilities to your arbitrary standards
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

Teens are already getting around the teen social media ban by scanning their parents' faces or uploading their ID, after the government was warned that a third of parents were planning to help their kids dodge the minimum age.

I don't have kids, so I can be a right cunt about these sorts of things. What if the social media ban for under 16s turns out to be a complete load of facile nonsense that does nothing, because it was all about the bad parenting we created along the way...... pursuing a false economy.

In a time when governments need to learn, they continually demonstrate that they have learned exactly nothing. Government is about being the custodian of the well-being of 26 million people - this is not custodianship, it's incompetence bordering on negligence.
EXCLUSIVE: Funding and support plans for national disability insurance scheme participants will be generated by a computer program and staff will have no discretion to amend them, under a major overhaul of the NDIS to be rolled out next year, @australia.theguardian.com can reveal.

also a good example of why AI summaries are not good for breaking news. it's hallucinating here based off the original november election, where Wilson was slightly ahead but which then prompted a runoff election since he didn't get over 50 percent.

People saying "kids will find a way around this" have no idea what "this" is. When it comes to YouTube, there's nothing for them to find a way around. The government is forcing all kids to have raw unfiltered access to YouTube. The only thing they're removing is parental controls.

Everyone under age 16 in Australia just got this notification from YouTube. Everyone under 16 will no longer be able to sign-in, block channels, disable ads, or browse anything other than the default algorithm moving forward. Brain dead decision-makers.

Given that the problem with a lot of plans is that the human assessing them frequently knows absolutely fuck all about the disability they are assessing and makes a decision based on vibes, I actually can’t see how this is worse. Fuck it, bring on the machines.
