what a shame! the attorney general's petty little nonsense site got complaints he didn't like, as a show of support for Missouri trans people!
so somebody in my team meeting this morning mentioned laser tag, and i low-key mumbled that i think my long-term career goal is to open and manage a roller rink with a laser tag arena, partially joking; but now the idea has implanted itself as a subroutine into one of my long-term processing cores and over the next however many months it's going to be persistent daydream material for me and a source of longing and if-only angst.
really i just want to DJ sets of Jet Set Radio tracks for skaters. a nice, fun, dumb dream.

Yesterday, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey had a site put up to narc on trans people in Missouri (and likely out of state, too):
https://ago.mo.gov/file-a-complaint/transgender-center-concerns
However, the site doesn't do any kind of bot filtering, data validation, or even location validation (so long as you use a VPN and switch locations up!).
With that, class... UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WHATSOEVER SHOULD YOU USE THE FOLLOWING SCRIPT TO FLOOD THE SITE WITH FALSE INFORMATION!! That would be very, very naughty!! 😈😈😈

First #RaspberryPi earned a shitstorm by hiring an ex-cop specialized in hidden surveillance.
Now they accept an investment by Sony for their propr. AI engine to be included in the next Pi. Which "only sends metadata to the cloud".

Quote from article: Once the Nazis took power they banned books, outlawed drag shows and homosexuality, changed school curricula to remove mention of their atrocities in WWI, and rewrote election laws so they’d never again lose an election.
My thoughts: A whole bunch of people, myself included, started pointing out parallels between the Trump-era GOP and the Nazis well before he was elected. We were accused of employing hyperbole, and told to "give him a chance."
Well, just call me Cassandra ... because here we are.
Just. Like. I. Said. We. Would. Be.
Fun fact: during early development the gonads of the human fetus remain undifferentiated; that is, all fetal genitalia are the same and are phenotypically female.
- So, if biological sex can't be changed,
- And if life starts at conception,
- Then all men are trans.
Sorry, Republican men. You made the rules.
i am 47 years old. i have a house, a mortgage, insurance. i have a job, a family, and an ever-spiraling fractal cloud of responsibilities, requirements, expectations, debts, allegiances, hopes and deep, deep fears that surround and permeate my every waking moment.
the raw, bleating, uncanny NEED i currently feel to have Princess Daisy be a part of the next Super Mario Bros. movie is a dramatically outsized part of that fractal cloud in that it has eclipsed both reason and social nicety.
to wit: [deeeep inhale] EVERYBODY HEAR ME OUT I'M THINKING STEPHANIE BEATRIZ FOR VA, SHE COULD FLY TO THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM IN TATANGA'S SPACESHIP, SARASALAND COULD BE LIKE A COMBINATION ANCIENT EGYPT/AZTECA CIVILIZATION AND BE THE SETTING FOR THE NEXT MOVIE, SHE COULD BE PEACH'S SISTER AND THERE'S LIKE AN ANCIENT ORDER OF PRINCESSES AND THAT SETS UP THE GALAXY MOVIE WITH ROSALINA, AND ALSO DAISY SPENDS LIKE TWENTY MINUTES OF THE MOVIE MAKING OUT WITH SAMUS ARAN, NO CUTS, 500 MILLION OPENING WEEKEND, NOBEL PRIZE FOR MOVIES, DE NIRO AND PACINO ARE WARIO AND WALUIGI, YOU ARE WELCOME HOLLYWOOD

I keep banging this drum, but Republicans don't oppose grooming. They love grooming, as long as it's powerful religious men doing it to young girls.
When they say "grooming" they mean LGBT people existing, bc they don't believe anyone is actually LGBT absent social conditioning. https://twitter.com/crampell/status/1647365281067462656
