Periodic reminder that these people want you dead. Between the recent attacks on electrical infrastructure, increase in hate crimes, and rampant fascist rhetoric online, it’s pretty safe to say that the threat is real. It’s only a matter of time until you see it in person.

The fact that the red pill was a reference to trans women taking Premarin, a brand of estrogen in the 90's, is an extra level of irony now that the far right has appropriated it.

I have to hand it to Andrew Tate, this is the first time I've seen someone be so outwitted by a teenager that they end up in jail without it involving a dog that solves fake ghost mysteries

Today is the anniversary of the largest mass shooting in American history, Wounded Knee, a massacre on December 29, 1890 that has been relegated to history as a "battle".

29 December 1923 | Hungarian Jewish woman Lily Ebert was born in Bonyhád.
In July 1944 she was deported to Auschwitz. She was then transferred to an ammunition factory near Leipzig where she was liberated.
Today she turns 99.
“I never thought I would survive Auschwitz and have another birthday. At 99, I celebrate to show that the Nazis did not win!”

I don't understand the anti-trans transhumanist techbros out there either.
My dudes, the entire point of transhumanism is radical bodily autonomy.
If you're hung up on what someone's original meatsack was, you're gonna have a bad time in the transhumanist future you're after.
Greetings. There is so much that can be said about Gerry Anderson and his "Supermarionation" productions, using puppets (usually actually marionettes) ultimately to create vast hi-tech adventure sagas, the peak of which was the British TV series "Thunderbirds" (1965-66). I loved these as a child and I still think they're great.
Today I'll just relate one story about Anderson's impact.
One day, Gerry was on a tour of the UK facilities where the Franco-British supersonic Concorde airliner was being designed. Along the way, someone asked what he did for a living. He rather sheepishly replied that he made children's TV shows. "Oh, like what?" he was asked.
So he mentioned that he did "Fireball XL5" and "Thunderbirds" and such.
And in no time at all, he was surrounded by Concorde engineers and techs who wanted to say hi and shake his hand, many of whom said it was his shows that had inspired them to enter the engineering field, because they actually wanted to *build* those planes and rockets that were created for his various series!
Much the same happened here in the U.S., with the original "Star Trek" inspiring generations of engineering talent.
So yeah, TV matters! -L
