there was just a bipartisan push to crack heads of college kids correctly and morally calling out what is now pretty generally accepted as a genocide. they rolled tanks and them and let paid goons throw explosives at them. i dunno man
The Times piece by @brendannyhan.bsky.social about No Kings made me curious about the political activism of young people over time. So I pulled some CES data and made some charts. www.pbump.net/o/how-severe...

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a powerful antibody, known as 04_A06, that is able to neutralize 98.5% of MORE THAN 300 different HIV strains AND permanently reduce HIV viral load to undetectable levels, making it one of the broadest-acting antibodies against HIV identified to date.

MILF and tentacles getting pulled alongside loli and shota reinforces what I and others have said since the summer: If you empower Mastercard to censor a little, you empower them to take everything away. The problem is the capacity for a credit card to censor

Really weird seeing MILF in that list considering how commonplace and inoffensive that category is

I don’t want Logos to box in creators who’ve already had to navigate Ultimania contradicting the game. I know the VAs have said it’s their interpretation and encourage fanworks but I also know how sanctimonious people can get in fandom spaces.

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

I have said this over and over, I will continue to say it: The most common American positions on trans issues are "idk, none of my business." Most people do not think about it and do not give a shit. They wish the news would shut up and talk about something that they think is actually important.
This is a really well-done corrective to the NYT/Atlantic party line on how attitudes about trans people affect Democrats' electoral prospects. Liberal Currents continues to shine.

Trans Panic? More Like Trans Apathetic
2025 shows trans rights aren't electoral poison. The truth? Most people just don't care that much.

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.
