While I'm not quite at the point of losing my house, the harm ai has done to my animation work income is huge, like 80% gone and it makes me wonder how many freelance artists and animators ARE losing everything while billionaire con men continue to rake it in.

Also this, of course! If women are defined by the production of large gametes, the production of large gametes quickly comes to define women. Feminism once argued that biology was not destiny; the anti-trans movement insists that it is. bsky.app/profile/jack...
If you are arguing that what essentially makes you a woman is your reproductive capacity, then it’s real easy to slide into the “you must reproduce” logic.

There are plenty of links between the anti-trans “women’s rights” movement & anti-feminist conservatism. And opposing abortion is a logical conclusion for a movement that says no, you should not have agency over your own body; no, you do not know best about yourself; no, you have no choice.
No way I’m sharing Stock’s UnHerd article. But I am going to point to this bit which amply demonstrates the anti-trans=>anti-women’s rights pipeline. “Abortions should only be done for a highly restricted set of reasons. They should not be just nodded through for any reason a pregnant woman likes.”

genuine appeal to feminists who are haven't realised it yet: trans women are on your side. TERFS aren't

It takes 225 million years or so for the Solar System to make one orbit around the galaxy. Sharks evolved long enough ago that they’ve done it twice.
Man, everything is so bleak, anyone got a fun fact or little bit of trivia they want to share

Ok Bluesky, let’s give this a go: I found this postcard in the back of a photo frame I bought at a London thrift shop.

It’s an unsent postcard from a woman called Linda to her parents. The front shows the Kremlin in Moscow and the stamp says 1984 (!).

I’d love to return it to Linda - can you help?

Happy birthday to the brilliant Alexander Siddig, DS9’s own Dr. Julian Bashir. From frontier medicine to frontier mysteries, he brought heart, charm, and depth to every moment on Deep Space Nine and later in Lower Decks S5! Wishing him a stellar year ahead! #startrekds9 #startreklowerdecks

When I say that terfism has, as one of its core tenets, the belief that trans people didn't exist before about 2012, it sounds like a joke, but it's literally true. Nothing makes sense without that underlying, trivially false principle.

*Insert City* is serviced by 4 different bus companies, none of which honor the regional travel tickets of the other? Why would they.

I'll be out £40 a month if I don't swap my electric tariff to a company that didn't exist 3 months ago and won't exist in 5 years? Naturally.

Train companies spend millions of pounds a year in arbitration fighting each other over who pays delay repay? Of course they do.

My water company has lied about dumping waste but the regulator isn't fining them? Of course not.

The UK's "worst of both worlds" is most obvious to me as an outsider with experience in both the US and Switzerland when interacting with privatized services like rail.

Every tidbit learned about the Rube Goldberg machine of UK privatization is like peeking into madness itself

Oh good, they're asking the public to name something again! (replica sutton hoo ship). They have explicitly asked for nothing like Boaty mcBoatface, so this is time for old english scholars to represent. What is the OE for "Boaty McBoatface"? Can we do something with "whale road"...? #Medievalsky
