When I was in middle school, I learned there were only two genders. When I did my bachelors in Biology, I learned that there are also people who are intersex and the importance of the SRY gene.
When I completed my Masters in Neurosciences, I learned that sex is already hard to define, and gender is both social and in the brain - making everything a lot more complex.
When people say "it's basic biology" they are telling you they haven't
moved past middle school.

A four-panel comic strip
Panel 1: A woman with dark hair sits at a desk, looking at a man lying on a couch. Behind him is a large sign that says "FUNDING." The man asks, "So, why should I fund your lab?" with a bored expression.
Panel 2: The woman from Panel 1 is now standing, holding a piece of paper, and looking sad. She says, "We solved the Eindinger equation. We have a complete model of all physics." The man from Panel 1, now visible only by his hand, says "Booooring"
Panel 3: The woman is now at a desk, writing quickly with a red pen. She has a determined expression and says, "Perhaps you'd care to see the equation..."
Panel 4: A close-up of a hand pointing to a complex equation written on a piece of paper. The equation has "AI" written in red next to several terms, as if added as a modification. The man says, "Oh...!" indicating that he is ready to provide funding after reading about "AI"

Just finished listening to @karenhao.bsky.social's empireofai.com 📚💙 A sobering investigative journalism, exploration of the power dynamics of the AI industry, its ethics, environmental impact, & the dual possibilities of AI as either an equalizer, or a tool to perpetuate systemic inequality. 1/

Saw this wonderful image and got reminded why I should be wearing progressive pride buttons on each of my jackets and coats. Source: mastodon.social/@amalia12/11...

A sticker on some street with the text: "I don't wear 🏳️‍🌈 [queer pride] items to tell you who's in my bed. I wear them so the family across the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren't alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won't judge. I wear because you make them hide."

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam or The Breeders or Soul Coughing or They Might Be Giants:

A Mastodon post by Francisca Sinn with the following text:

“Sit down and shut up, woman,” he said.

“The hell we will,” she said. And she said, and she, and she, and she, and she, as far as the eye could see.

I just learnt that sunsets on Mars are blue (daytime is pink-yellow-brown). It seems to be due to the exact size and composition of Martian dust particles, which scatter red light in many directions while changing the direction of blue light very little. science.nasa.gov/solar-system...
