  An anti-trans political activitist is caught lying about trans kids and surgeries in Ohio because kids aren't having surgeries. It also turns out that she didn't have her own gender affirming surgery until she was an adult and living in Texas. The right will probably jettison her now that she is not longer useful to them. https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/politics/ohio-politics/woman-accusing-sherrod-brown-of-forcing-transgender-surgeries-isnt-from-ohio-didnt-have-procedure-as-minor...

  When a rogue AI agent gets into a US Government system, who will go to jail? Does anyone go to jail? Is it legal because AI did it and there might not be a specific law concerning the facts? OpenAI hacked into the Australian government, reports say. AI is probably checking sites all over the world right now. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c6vgy0333dppo #tech #technology #law

  One of these days, researchers will look through the Flock data like researchers did when when Central European states broke free from their surveillance-heavy former governments. It will be interesting to see what files were kept on which people they found interesting. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/oct/29/trump-czechoslovakia-communism-spying

  Kid Rock cancels a concert because rich MAGA people wouldn't pay for tickets. The organizer says rich people "suck." The organizer said: “'I want to tell you something: Rich people, as a whole, suck,' he said. 'Out of all these people that have money that I interact with, who I do favors for all day long. They ask me for something…. I never said no to these people…. None of these people will ever, ever, ever get a favor from me again, ever.'” https://www.lgbtqnati...

  Remember Michael Cohen who was anti-Trump when he was getting his podcast up and running and needed listeners? He's BFF with Trump again. Trump says "they" forced him to say bad things about Trump, so he's willing to consider pardoning his fixer. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/09/09/trump-michael-cohen-pardon/91678859007/ #uspol #politics

  Trump deported people to Equatorial Guinea where they are held as prisoners in a dilapidated hotel where police beat them. “'We are in imminent danger now and can’t keep living like this,' Ahmed Soliman, a deportee at the hotel, said ... 'I’m tired and genuinely afraid for my life.' He was one of the two men who were later beaten and hooded, witnesses and ...

  The US Government tried to make a gay bomb to make everyone gay. It was a fabulous concept, if it had worked. Don't let anyone know about the Trans project that uses AI data centers to turn everyone trans. 😁 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_bomb #satire

  The GOP is overwhelming Grindr in Dallas now. "According to social media reports, Grindr outage reports are surging in Dallas on only the first day of the Republican midterm convention. Downdetector also showed more than 100 reports of users facing problems with the app." "A user on X wrote, 'Drove into Dallas today and Grindr goes down.

  I learned this when I looked up "false karass" after reading it in @muddle@infosec.exchange 's reply to my post about IU's lack of free speech. Kurt Vonnegut says a "granfalloon is a proud and meaningless collection of human beings." "Vonnegut later cites the demonym of 'Hoosiers' as 'one of [Vonnegut's] favorite examples' of what the term embodies."

  If you're a Democrat, don't join the Republicans in their oppression of minorities, including trans people. Being evil with them won't protect you because their evil consumes everyone around them, including themselves. They eat their own bigots, such as Bovino and Milo. Remember what they did to Pence. You won't win being evil. https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:m65ifh7vn5zdgs7izcmht4gy/post/3mupk32l4sc2a #trans #transgender #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA #politics #u...

  Trump is like those weird sports stadium owners who sell naming rights that make stadiums generic and less interesting, like AAA Septic Pumping Stadium or UltraCryptoScam Field, when he renames water bodies to get his jollies. I'm glad MapQuest is resisting.

  What kind of government would cut funding for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library along with cutting school funding to districts around the state? Indiana, of course. They are also destroying the higher education system as well by limiting speech and eliminating majors. The Lt. Gov. wants to ban Islamic prayers, but the state wants kids to go to church during the school day for religious Ed. https://www.newsweek.com/republicans-cut-funding-for-dolly-partons-child-reading-program-1236873...

  I remember when Trump fired the cyber security people because he didn't like that they said the election he lost wasn't hacked.
