New NHS England Review Excluded 97% Of All Trans Studies To Say Care Doesn't Work The new review has led to a ban for HRT through the NHS England system under the age of 18.

1. A new NHS England Review excluded 97% of all trans care studies to conclude that trans youth care doesn't work.

It explicitly violates several guidelines around reviewing literature, and appears to be politics masquerading as (shoddy) science.

I have graduated to large tote, but it’s heavy enough that sometimes I leave it in the car, and just carry my keys and…a purse, which I keep inside the tote. Is it like my purse had a baby? Or more like the captain’s yacht on the Enterprise? Unsure.

Surely I can’t be the only person whose worries about the world, both specific and inchoate, are manifest in my purse getting progressively larger.

I have seen a lot of cursed stuff in my time in academia but this is among the *most* cursed.
Grammarly is generating miniature LLMs based on academic work so that users can have their writing β€˜reviewed’ by experts like David Abulafia, who died less than two months ago.

Trump Administration Moves to Allow Intelligence Agencies Easier Access to Law Enforcement Files β€œNone of this has been thought through very carefully,” one official said of the plans, which upend long-standing restrictions meant to protect Americans’ privacy.

Since the CIA’s Watergate-era spying on civil rights and anti-war activists inside the United States, intelligence agencies have, with some exceptions, been prohibited from gathering information on the domestic activities of U.S. citizens.

Update: Trump announces end of business with Anthropic, unclear if they are going to invoke supply chain risk designation.

Calls it a β€œradical left, woke company” after it rejects demands for AI usage in mass American surveillance and autonomous killing drones.

Wild timeline.

"They want me to hide or leave or disappear" Republicans invalided Avery Rowland’s drivers license, along with hundreds of other transgender Kansans. Here’s how she’s fighting back.

β€œThey want me to hide or leave or disappear, not to be visible and active in public society."

A new Kansas law went into effect this week that invalidates preexisting IDs with gender markers that do not match someone’s sex assigned at birth.

Almost every statement DHS has made in the past few months about any incidents where someone has died or been subject to unaccountable federal violence has been proven false.

Lebrecht has a long-documented obsession with Yuja Wang that is, yes, derogatory and misogynistic, and also creepy as hell.

Please don’t call Lebrecht a β€˜critic’. What he writes is not criticism, let alone music criticism. It is tabloid muckraking and bullying, and always has been: nothing more and often a whole lot less. He has no more interest in music than I do in his β€˜novels’.

I know I’ve been asking for $ these past few weeks but in light of last night’s barbarism:

if you would like to help trans folks in Kansas get a ride to their nearest DMV + cover any license fees they can’t pay, please consider donating with the comment β€œTRANS RIGHTS”

Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license.

They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.
