My column this week is about how fucking BAD the body image/fatphobic vibes are at the moment and how other people need to engage before it destroys us all. I don’t ever insist you read my stuff but I’d love you to read this one www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I will never stop being mad about how the media has treated the anti-trans movement as a group of ordinary people with legitimate concerns rather than the obvious frothing bigots they are.
ABC White House correspondent just released ANOTHER anti-trans EO expected that we did not cover in our piece this morning:
A federal ban on funding to programs that acknowledge and affirm transgender people.

I know you’re prob sick of me but I got this off my chest earlier this week & I think a lot of comedy fans could find it cathartic maybe. I’ve been stewing about it for ages & Im happy that it came out as something other than me snarling and growling heterosexualnonsense.substack.com/p/comedians-...
Comedians obsessed with 'wokeness' are the ones ruining comedy
there's nothing less funny than old lazy jokes about cancel culture that we've heard before

Rush to select new NDIS needs assessment, to feed outcomes directly to plan budgets, will lead to catastrophic errors. Confidential briefing docs reveal timeline is so tight officials are all but apologising to disability advocates for a fait accompli. www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/health/...

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

The Washington Post reports that Michael Anton and Sebastian Gorka had a falling out over who should receive credit for writing Trump's speeches. This is incorrect. In this thread, I will tell you the real reason why Anton dislikes Gorka. 🧵

Jen Easterly has been an absolute icon in her role. She truly prioritized building relationships with business and the infosec community, implemented the Joint Cyber Defense Collaborative, and championed secure by design development.
Her departure will likely mark the end of the CISA function.

CISA Director Jen Easterly just held a virtual meeting with agency employees to talk transition, per a person familiar with the matter.
Source paraphrased as "We will prepare for transition because that's what we do."
Easterly thanked staff and said she and her deputy would stay until Jan. 20.
