Ingen tvil om at OUS har forsket ulovlig på barn og unge med kjønnsinkongruens, ifølge komité Fordi dette er en svært sårbar gruppe barn og unge, er det «ekstra viktig» å ta vare på deres velferd og integritet, skriver REK i sin uttalelse.

Den forskningsetiske komiteen legger ikke akkurat fingrene imellom i sin siste fellelse av OUS’ forskning på transpersoner.

Jeg er intervjuet, og mener de involverte må fritas fra oppgavene sine inntil saken er ferdig gransket.

How to stop a dictator I spent months studying how authoritarians like Trump lose. The answer is shockingly simple.

I have spent the past several months studying the cutting-edge research on modern democracies that have defeated authoritarian leaders.

I've learned that the conventional wisdom on the topic is wrong — in ways that have clear implications for the US going forward

The cause of violence in Mexico is the same as the cause for overdose deaths on our streets.

The "war on drugs" is a forever war with no winners, which brings only misery and death all around the world.

Who benefits? Drug cartels, police budgets and politicians.

Who is harmed? Everyone else.

John Oliver did a brutal exposé of how Elon Musk destroyed Twitter and turned X into a cesspool of right-wing misinformation.

Oliver hasn't posted in over a year: "I will be going back there tomorrow to post a link to this piece before going silent again."

Worth a watch.

LOs oppgave er å gi vanlig arbeidsfolk høyere lønn.
PR-bransjens oppgave er å hjelpe eierne med å skape en en god fortelling om hvorfor dét ikke er mulig.

Å i det hele tatt insinuere at fagbevegelsen - bærebjelken i utviklingen av det moderne Norge - kan sammenlignes med First House, er en skam.

Inget gör mig så rasande som vanligt folks solidaritet med miljardärer. Folk tror de är fria bara för att de får fickpengar från arbetsköpare en gång i månaden, som de betalar tillbaka till banken som äger huset

Svar: för att rasismen i Sverige är så normaliserad och styr beslutsfattandet på så många sätt att inte ens en människa som uppfyller alla de människofientliga kraven på prestation, regelefterlevnad och oskyldighet kan få ges människovärde och autonomi.

He could not force himself to understand how banks functioned and so forth, because all the operations of capitalism were as meaningless to him as the rites of a primitive religion, as barbaric, as elaborate, and as unnecessary.

Nettsiden til Nasjonalarkivet med teksten: «Få hjelp av kunstig intelligens» og et felt for å stille spørsmål.

Nasjonalarkivet har forkastet hele forsiden av nettsiden sin til fordel for et KI-tekstfelt?

Har dette kanskje gått litt for langt nå?

En kritisk mangel på moral og empati Det går faktisk an å takke nei når du blir invitert på overgriperballet.

Når du får invitasjon til overgriperballet, så går det faktisk an å takke nei.

Jeg kommenterer Epstein-avsløringene, hvordan de er en fortsettelse av MeToo, og hvordan de avslører en enorm mangel på moral og empati.

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018.
How did I do it?

Blacked out lines

CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP.
There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

Karensåret førte til flere selvmord, mener AAP-aksjonen. Nå frykter de at regelen blir gjeninnført Flere selvmord kan knyttes til at folk brått har mistet pengene fra Nav, mener Elisabeth Thoresen.

Men all verdens blomster og festtaler endrer ikke dette som nå er et grundig dokumentert faktum:

Veldig god tekst.

Å jakte seertall gjør alle dummere. Man må stole på folk, både publikum, forfattere, serieskapere, og gi de noe som er VERDT Å FØLGE MED PÅ.

NRK har holdt på med å rive ned sin egen kulturell relevanse hele livet mitt og jeg er driiiiitlei.

4 frame comic. A woman with a long purple scarf is waiting for the subway. a street journalist approaches her and asks :
miss! do you think
we're approaching a
moment when the public will
recognize that allowing
children to be transed
was a terrible idea?
She replies :
considering that with each
passing day, the public sees
how much of the anti-trans
movement was engineered by
the wealthy to fuel culture
war hate on the back of a
vulnerable community, I'd say
we owe massive apologies
to trans people.
just this week,
we learned that a decade ago,
epstein suggested using trans rights
as a wedge issue, and that jk
rowling's team was courting him.

we also learned that what we were
told about the closure of the tavi-
stock clinic, the only youth clinic
in the u.k. for gender-affirmative
care, was nothing but lies.
rowling's pal hilary cass
forced the clinic to close after
reports of 1000 complaints from
families. we learned this week
that it only received eight over
10 years, mostly about delays.

in the meantime, the health dep't
has been concealing trans
children suicide numbers, which
we now know rose dramatically
following the closure. 
The terrible idea was always to scapegoat trans kids.

We owe it to these kids to keep fighting for truth to prevail.

1/5 En svært viktig votering fant sted i EU-parlamentet denne uken, i forkant av forhandlingene under FNs Kvinnekonvensjon (CSW) i New York neste måned.
Blant mange saker som var oppe til behandling, er det særlig ett punkt som markerer et vesentlig politisk veivalg:

Gender affirming treatment has an astonishingly high rate of satisfaction. You probably already know this, but I feel like we need to repeat it over and over.

At vi ikke ser den overskriften med jevne mellomrom forteller oss alt vi egentlig trenger å vite om pressens totalt manglende evne til å formidle Trumps galskap.

Den finnes ikke. Det får det ikke til.

Alt blir forsøkt normalisert og pakket inn i fornuft.

Men det er ikke det. Det er gal ondskap.
