Via Austin Kocher:

#USCIS just sent out an email announcing that it only recognizes "two sexes - male & female" & generally only sex assigned at birth.

The insatiable hunger to feed #LLMs and #AI is parasitically draining the commons and public internet. Bandwidth costs are spiking as crawlers take data for training and information. For Wikipedia, the lack of attribution means no visitors, no donors, just cost. The #ethics of AI are failing here.

I saw Tim Karr on bluesky suggest that AIs should pay fees or a tax (should that be tariffs?) into a fund that supports public content. Services like Cloudflare and Fastly that defend against bots are evolving for crawlers. In #identity, the implications for #AgenticAI, #AI, and #NHI are vast.

“So on this #TransDayOfVisibility, I see you — the person behind the governmental erasure and deafening public silence. I see your complexity, your resilience, your #humanity that extends far beyond your #gender #identity. And I promise to keep fighting for a world where being seen doesn't come with a side of existential dread.

Because one day, visibility won't be an act of #courage. It will just be #life.”

"The boys laughed and, as the teacher removed one of them from the class, other students laughed. It wasn’t the note that stayed with my daughter. It was the laughter."

"Dry-erase ink is not similar to tattoo ink, but it is almost identical to ink from a permanent marker. And if you leave it on a surface for long enough, especially a porous surface, it will remain. The brain is a porous surface. Memory is a porous surface."

A quotation from Steven Moffat

JANE: Oh, I know about pretending. I once went on holiday and pretended to be twins. It was amazing fun. I invented this mad, glamorous sister and went around really annoying everybody. And d’you know, I could get away with anything when I was my crazy twin Jane.
 
SALLY: But you’re Jane.
 
JANE: Kinda stuck. It’s a long story.

Really good article that I just read which dives into autistic versus non-autistic identity, it puts out a theory that Autistic identity is value-and-passion-driven versus non-Autistic identity being focused on collective identity membership, and the way the two conflict and differ.
