Is the verification badge gonna be automatic for people who pay, will Twitter be checking to make sure they are who they say they are? Can I change my handle to OfficialTacoBell and for $20 go out in a blaze of glory?

A dark day for trans youth. Florida Board of Medicine has just voted to ban gender affirming care for all trans teenagers. They cut the hearing early and told activists to "email them." I cry for Florida's trans youth. This was a sham hearing with fake experts.

As someone who has lived my entire life with at least one cat, aside for a few months earlier this year, and thus has spent decades cleaning cat boxes, I can say with authority that cat turds are literally smelly shit but do not deserve to be associated with a certain tweeter now

Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.

Though we've always been in a precarious position, Jack was a noxious tech bro with at the very least right wing sympathies. Maybe Elon won't be any worse and the site will continue to barely soldier on. We can hope.

You know as much as Twitter sucks it has been genuinely good for raising awareness and organizing at times, not to mention audience outreach for artists, etc. Losing it, if that's what ultimately happens, will in fact be terrible.

Gender is a construct. Some genders are so massive they take 10 years just to construct the orbiting scaffolding required to build it and only the eldest of our people remember a time when the skies were dark and there was no glittering lattice work to remind us of their destiny.

A man who dressed in what appeared to be a gimp suit to roll on the floor and scare villagers has been arrested. Some believe the the perpetrator is a 'serial Somerset gimp' who also terrified people in the nearby village of Claverham in 2019 and 2021. trib.al/zPSeURF
VICTORY: After two years of legal limbo, transgender West Virginians can again amend names and gender markers on their birth certificates. We have just finalized a settlement with the state after new policies were adopted making the process safer and more accessible.
