uspol, AIDS, Florida 

Not sure how I missed this news, but apparently Florida is keeping the multi-cides going by slashing access to AIDS treatment.

As someone who held my elders in my arms as they died one after the other, and helped their friends and partners struggle with the aftermath while their birth families looked away… Fuck everyone involved in this.

“NASTAD estimates that more than 16,000 people will lose ADAP coverage. This means that roughly half of all Floridians currently relying on ADAP for uninterrupted access to HIV treatment are at immediate risk of treatment disruption solely due to an administrative eligibility change, not clinical need.”

Ready access to modern AIDS treatments and prophylaxis is good for EVERYONE. The theoretical cost savings they’ll get by slashing this program will be utterly dwarfed by the societal costs when we start dealing with the reality of untreated AIDS.

Furious.

Trans PSA: if you see a study by "AYAGDOS" (at ayagdos(.)org), avoid it like the plague. It's being run by Lisa Littman and J. Michael Bailey, noted transphobes who have a *long* history of transphobic rhetoric and "research."

ICE, uspol, help wanted 

does anyone know of tech groups working against ICE? a friend of mine contacted me asking about resources as someone they know got taken (she's okay but traumatized).

i'm finding it difficult to find orgs that can help beyond the big USA-wide ones, which often don't have boots on the ground. wondering if there's any projects working on this!

AI 

I have replaced my children with agentic AI so I can practice my parenting skills. There's one small problem though. I had a big bowl of chili and now I can't remember their names, so my AI wife is taking them in the AI divorce.

Seems like a few people watched that episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where Geordie fell in love with a hologram, met the person in real life and creeped her out, and thought "Ah, the solution is to never interact with real people."

look at this sweetie. we really got lucky we found him in the backyard just sleeping and wanting touch. he really is a house cat

I wish more people realized that not everybody wants or cares to know about your 4chan/twitter/reddit references. But I am very glad that at least some people are starting to.
