New York Times Writers Call Out the Paper’s Anti-Trans Onslaught
On Wednesday morning, a group of almost 200 journalists and writers released an open letter addressed to the New York Times, sharing their “serious concerns about editorial bias in the newspaper’s reporting on transgender, non-binary, and gender nonconforming people” and criticizing how the Times has “follow[ed] the lead of far-right hate groups in presenting gender diversity as a new controversy warranting new, punitive legislation.”
The open letter, whose signees include regular contributors to the Times and prominent writers and journalists like Ed Yong, Lucy Sante, Roxane Gay, and Rebecca Solnit, comes at a time when far-right extremist groups and their analogues in state legislatures are ramping up their attacks on trans young people; just yesterday, South Dakota became the sixth state to ban or restrict gender-affirming care for youth, efforts that one conservative activist recently acknowledged was merely the first step toward their goal of banning transition care altogether.
In recent years and months, the Times has decided to play an outsized role in laundering anti-trans narratives and seeding the discourse with those narratives, publishing tens of thousands of handwringing words on trans youth—reporting that is now approvingly cited and lauded, as the letter writers note, by those who seek to ban and criminalize gender-affirming care.
Some really just amazing delusion here. The NYT coverage of trans issues has been a constant drumbeat of approval and allyship. But they reported just a little bit on the detransition movement even existing, and the left+ has a freakout.
Mommy Dearest
Much younger men keep pursuing me online. Many of them seem to have the same startling fantasy.
And as an “older woman” who attracts a lot of attention from younger men on this app, I have found that many of them share the same interest: sex with “mommy.”
I don’t know if these young men want to have sex with their own actual moms. They haven’t said, and I haven’t asked. I sincerely doubt it. But at least half a dozen men, in the few months I’ve been on the app, have asked me whether I’d be interested in playing the role of “mommy.”
(Mommy is the word they use. Or mom. Never mother.)
It’s not like these men acknowledge their mother-son fantasies from the get-go. The reveal takes a while. First, they explain that they have a desire for a dynamic in which they’re submissive to a female. A conversation might go something like this:
“What is it that you like about older women?”
“I like their maturity, and that they know what they want.”
A beat, and then, from him:
“I want to explore my submissive side.”
Sometimes this is where the story ends, which is to say that sometimes I simply have a fun verbal back-and-forth with a guy who wants to call me “ma’am” and asks what he might do to please me. (I have a long list.) Then we discuss different scenarios and sext with each other until one of us has to get off the app.
Sometimes, though, the topic of having sex “in character” comes up. The young man always initiates this part of the conversation.
“Do you ever role-play?”
“Not really. What do you have in mind?”
“I’ve always wanted to try a mommy-and-son-type thing.”
Another beat, an uncomfortably long one, and then, from me:
“I’m listening. But what does that look like, exactly?”
“I want to fuck you. I want to make you cum. I want you to praise me and boss me around.”
“OK.”
“I want to service you. And to be told I am a good boy.”
“OK. And?”
“I want to be nurtured.”
When a young man first said this to me, I didn’t immediately realize that it probably had something to do with my breasts.
What are most men in their 20s looking to date women their mother’s age looking for? Precisely this. Maybe find someone that wants to sleep with you and not their mother. (Heroic Mulatto blames all the incest porn.)

This certainly sounds like the Biden Administration. But it’s Breaking News from CBS, so it’s information that the Biden Administrations wants us to know, so almost surely a lie. But are they telling a lie to cover up a bigger scandal? Are they telling the truth to throw us off the scent?
This shit is so convoluted.
Dianne Feinstein Should Resign Now, Not Retire Later
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said Tuesday that she won’t seek re-election in 2024. CNN reported that Feinstein, 89, shared her decision with her colleagues at the Democratic caucus lunch. The state’s first woman Senator has faced questions in recent years about her mental fitness to serve, most prominently in stories in the New Yorker and the San Francisco Chronicle from 2020 and 2022, respectively. Both stories discussed her reported cognitive decline and the Chronicle story had four Senators and three former staffers (all anonymous) say her memory was “rapidly deteriorating.” She even stepped down as chair of the Judiciary committee in November 2020 after strange behavior during the Amy Coney Barrett hearings.
Back to today’s events: “I am announcing today I will not run for reelection in 2024 but intend to accomplish as much for California as I can through the end of next year when my term ends,” Feinstein, 89, said in a statement. “Even with a divided Congress, we can still pass bills that will improve lives. Each of us was sent here to solve problems. That’s what I’ve done for the last 30 years, and that’s what I plan to do for the next two years.”
We thank her for her decades of service and also want to remind her that she can, in fact, simply retire now.
On today of all days, Feinstein seemed confused about what was happening and when. Her Senate Twitter account shared the retirement news at 1:50pm Eastern. Just before 2:30 p.m., Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer talked about her announcement with reporters and called her a legend—but shortly before 3, she told reporters she didn’t know the statement had even been released.
Christian Hall, national politics reporter for Bloomberg, tweeted that reporters asked Feinstein about her announcement to retire, and she responded, “If I haven’t made that decision, I haven’t released anything.” A Feinstein staffer had to tell the Senator that a statement was released, and she said, “I didn’t know they put it out.”
Almost seems like they learned their lesson about keeping people in office until they literally keel over from the Ruth Bader Ginsburg debacle. A faint glimmer of hope, until the last paragraph snuffs it out:
Anyway, people hadn’t been holding their breath for this announcement, and Democrats declared their candidacy already, including Reps. Katie Porter and Adam Schiff. Rep. Barbara Lee also reportedly plans to run. It’s time for some fresh ideas in the Senate Democratic caucus.
Can anyone but a Gizmodo dipshit think that bugman Schiff or Lee or Porter have anything resembling “fresh” ideas?

I’ve always had a liking for B1 (Caroline Munro) and C4 (Valerie Leon)
Leon in Zeta-One, a quickly-shot Barbarella rip-off.
Munro as a blood-drenched cutie in Dracula A.D 1972, one of the grooviest vampire movies ever, man.
Pretty much the last Smashing Pumpkins song I haven’t burned out on. And the Byzantine grotesques of the video are fantastic. “Feast, my friends! FEAST!”
“transgender, non-binary, and gender nonconforming people”
Two of those things not like the other.
They’re just fucking with us at this point.
My ostensibly straight, purple haired cousin-in-law insists on they/them pronouns now. Its about bending people to your will, nothing more.
95% of them, yes. When the current craze dies down there will be the same handful of people who pursue this path as before.
They/Them? So you have multiple personalities? How about I just call you Sybil?
The assault on common sense is part of the deal…..
How many lights do you see?
I can turn out the lights for you, you know.
In what sense?
All 3 are equally fucked in the head.
That’s retarded.

“Heroic Mulatto blames all the incest porn.”
Isn’t it mostly step siblings, or step father & step daughter?
The stepsister porn is just the gateway drug. Then you move on to harder stuff. Granny farts on cake. Thai ladyboy slurping. Interspecies emetophilia.
I’m still trying to rationalize the “stuck in couch” genre.
I’m in the “stuck on couch” genre. Once I settle in I’m good ’til meal time, unless someone wakes me up…
Which is scarier, HM’s browser history, or that he doesn’t have one?
I don’t understand why porn is so weird. who is it for? are people really into this shit or is it just the people who make porn are into this shit?
It really taxes my understanding of efficient markets.
Weird porn mostly makes its own market. And I’m sure there is a niche industry in analyzing searches on pron sites for ideas that are just beginning to become popular.
But, but there is the whole imouto genre…
Sounds like a research grant in the making.
I keep looking at my clothes dryer, but no one is ever stuck in it.

“This shit is so convoluted.”
Everyone involved is a professional liar.
Winston’s Mom is writing for Slate now?

why is incest roleplay porn so pervasive? Is there really a demand for this type of thing or is it just a vocal minority forces their weird fetish on the rest of the porn users?
I don’t have the time or constitution to study this so I’ll accept any plausible answer.
Weird isn’t it? Seems to be mostly step *insert relation here* incest though which isn’t quite as bad but still.
My thoughts . . . .people tend to get off to things that are taboo. And in porn, you don’t actually have to do anything wrong.
It’s the same with trans porn. It’s taboo. But actually sleeping with them is too much for a lot of these people.
Transporn is a non-porn genre that identifies as porn? Like The Song of Solomon?
What’s your weird fetish that you want to see more of?
Know any good armpit porn sites?
Armpit sniffing is quite a common thing in my world.
Dude.
It’s the forbidden fruit effect. That’s also why interracial porn is still big. A Black man having sex with a White woman was the biggest sexual taboo of the old South.
It also for black guys who are attracted to white women, and people into BBC.
What does Graham Norton and old episodes of Poirot have to do with porn?
It lends quite a bit of credence to the conspiracy theories that it’s a cultural Marxist conspiracy to subvert and destroy the family.
HM and I actually disagree on (quasi)-incest porn.
I think the stepsister/brother/mom/dad porn is natural product of our age of blended families. Your stepsister is this girl, about your age, in proximity, and there is no incest taboo if you met after the age of six. She is a viable sex partner that lounges around your house in various states of undress. And all of this is before the thrill of taboo kicks in.
I’d tend to agree with you. To me it’s related to the freeuse genre — you’ve got a constantly available sex partner that you don’t need to go through the effort of finding and impressing.
I’d also add that it seems to be the popular porn theme. A bit of the “incest” porn is just labeling in the title and has nothing to do with the video, particularly the amateur and semipro performers.
“Twincest” was all the rage way back in the beginnings of middle-aged white writing gay male romance. I mean, I assume it went bye-bye, but maybe not.
Ew.
That actually makes it sound a bit wholesome – you know, as kinks go…
The administration just throwing crap at the wall over the balloon is so funny. The sheer incompetence just radiates from everything their little media toadies announce: “there were no other balloons! There were three! we couldn’t possibly shoot it down over land! we’ve shot down three more things we don’t even know what they are over land! we had no idea it was here! we tracked it all the way from china! Trump didn’t know anything! there were three more under Trump!”
things feel especially stupid and rudderless right now. with gen milley claiming ukraine is going great and npr actually having the temerity to question his statement, it seems like there’s not a lot of confidence in leadership, their plan, etc.
😮
It no longer even takes shiny objects to distract the masses. Although, to be fair, I have not researched the albedo of the rogue balloons.

Whoa. Who are A3 and B4?
Pretty much the last Smashing Pumpkins song I haven’t burned out on. And the Byzantine grotesques of the video are fantastic. “Feast, my friends! FEAST!”
I can still listen to most of Siamese Dream. But yeah, Zero is amazing.
I can still listen to most of it. Anything from Gish always. Drown is still my favorite song by them.
“Mayonaise” never gets tired.
But for some reason the song I always want to hear is “The Everlasting Gaze” which I still think of as fresh even if the album is 23 years old and I’ve never listened to any of it besides that song.
Pretty sure A3 is Victoria Verti, who was a Playmate under the name Angela Dorian for September 1967.

Good lord. Only a year older than my mom!

B4 is tough. I think it is Marsha Hunt from Dracula A.D. 1972, but it isn’t a shot from the set (she has a very large afro in the movie.)

What are most men in their 20s looking to date women their mother’s age looking for? Precisely this. Maybe find someone that wants to sleep with you and not their mother.
When I was in my 20s and hooking up/dating older women, none of this entered into my mind.
I never hooked up (or tried) with women much older than myself. I always figured any woman interested in a man ten years her junior was probably high up on the hot/crazy matrix.
I remember being in my early 20s getting chatted and groped by a hot, blonde 40 something in a bar. As she walked away from the three $9 cosmos I’d paid for I remember thinking “as fun as that might be for a few hours there is no way she’s not a total fucking basket case.”
The summer I was eighteen I spent some interesting times with a woman that was twice my age; she was thirty-six, and (this is where it gets weird) she had a daughter who was four years younger than me. I will say, though, that I learned more that summer than I would have in five years with girls my own age – maybe ten years.
The whole thing kind of fizzled out after a while. But the group of sarcastic assholes I called my friends had some fun with it, when they would start loudly singing Mrs. Robinson whenever I showed up someplace.
Also, it just occurred to me, she’d be almost eighty years old now. Yipes.
Counterpoint: Sometimes the older women just want some hard young cock, and not a relationship.
Yes.
I don’t think that is a counterpoint. Sometimes they go hand in hand.
I always figured any woman interested in a man ten years her junior was probably high up on the hot/crazy matrix.
Yes.

Obesity in the age of Ozempic
[Citation desperately needed]
The God’s of the copybook headings are gaining on her.
You got that right.
“As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man…“
“But there’s another tension that’s emerged in the GLP-1 story: The medicines have become a lightning rod in an obesity conversation that is increasingly binary — swinging between fat acceptance and fatphobia.
“It feels like you have to be like, ‘I love being fat, this is my fat body,’ or, ‘Fat people are evil,’” Juneja told me.”
Politics polarizes everything into two positions — both of them wrong.
“Fat people are evil.”
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen could not be reached for comment.
Fat is non-binary now? Stop the world, I want off.
Either you are offering Lizzo a whole cheescake, or you want to herd all fat people into camps.
““You can be healthy at every size,” Juneja summed up. But “I was not healthy at the size that I was.””
Welcome back, Atreides, but I couldn’t finish.
Good God that is awful writing.
These healthy at any size retards are killing a lot of people. Of course, that’s probably a positive to them.
Ugh.
it’s not a left-right spectrum. There are studies that show fat-and-active is better than skinny-and-sedentary. Cleary skinny and active is miles better than fat and sedentary. But the skinny dude at the bar putting down beers and smoking all night is not automatically healthier than the fat girl in too-tight pants walking through the park.
True but the danger lies in the not so subtle message that:
Self acceptance > self improvement
This siren song destroys the fat and skinny alike
There are a lot of people who cannot hold two concepts in their heads at the same time as being complementary. Self-acceptance can coexist with self-improvement. Evolution can coexist with creation.
This is not how the Body Positivity activists present it however. Acknowledging that being obese is less than ideal heath wise and recognizing that many (not all) people in said condition have agency to change their situation is what they are fighting against. Doing so requires one to take some personal accountably which is anathema to their worldview.
Did I say that?
Carrying a little extra weight is one thing. Developing T2 diabeetus (preventable) is another. That will kill someone.
And skinny people fall under the healthy at any size nonsense, too.
Healthy is a combo platter of body comp, diet and activity. With some genetics thrown in.

Yeah, but it wasn’t clear he was a vegetable until the debate, and by then, about 700,000 early votes had already been cast, which reputedly went Democrat by about 3 to 1. Just shows to go you how bad the GOP candidates were.
I didn’t set up my joke correctly, let me try again:
“For a state known for their fruits, nuts and organic produce, it’s a shame they allowed PA to be the first state to elect a vegetable to Congress”
I think CA still beat PA to it. Feinstein has been a vegetable for a while now.

Major part of my high school years, film wise.
Also interesting for the careers it launched and those that flamed out.
Sir, must I remind you that it is black history month, and those kids are bleach white.
I recommend an excellent film made by professional black thespians.

Blackenstein.
I’ve gotten into Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary’s podcast The Video Archives — it’s where they go back though the Video Archives (the video rental shop they both worked at) archives to re-screen and discuss old VHS movies (and yes, they watch the VHS.) They discuss usually 3 films (often obscure) and the bring in Roger’s daughter Gala for her point-of-view, which is fun.
They do blaxploitation films in addition to revenge-o-matics and other lost gems like American Nitro (documentary about funny cars). It’s really fun to hear people talk passionately about something they really love.

It’s ok he plays for Team Blue.
He has this weird machismo habit that surfaces from time to time. It would’ve been more offensive had he addressed the Governor as boy, but they way he says it in the clip is more of an old man thing.
But on second thought, whenever he speaks of black man in his midst like this, he tends to describe them in terms of sports or their physical appearance. So, yes Racist Grandpa it is.
