The international chess Federation banned trans women from playing women's chess.
CHESS.
It's not about fairness. The fairness argument is intended to radicalize people into more violent forms of transphobia.

That rock skipping, yes tossing stones across a pond or river, is a gender segregated sport, should tell you something about how gendered sports are not about fairness of physical ability, and is instead about the male ego

MapQuest is now the No. 1 U.S. app after bucking Trump’s ‘Lake America’ renaming
MapQuest is now the No. 1 U.S. app after bucking Trump’s ‘Lake America’ renaming
The once-dominant mapping app has surged to the top of Apple’s U.S. App Store after refusing to adopt Trump’s “Lake America” name, drawing more than half of its 2026 U.S. downloads in just six days.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.
There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

That's it. Canada is changing the name of "Lake America" to "Lake Epstein" commencing now until Jan 20, 2029 or until Trump is tried and convicted for his crimes against girls and women.
Come on, America!! Convict the bastard in a court of law. He's a criminal!

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

This discussion puts its finger squarely on one of the two thorniest issues of geoengineering - namely that, to succeed, it would require multidecadal stable and rational governance of the countries and entities involved.

Governments are chasing AI investment, even as their publics turn against the technology and the data centers that power it.
Canada’s Mark Carney has chosen a shameless approach: to cast the opposition as a lack of “literacy” as he sets out to (re)educate Canadians about the benefits of AI.

I am sure that all the astronauts in the newly announced Artemis crew are eminently qualified and I don't in any way wish to detract from their accomplishments but I think it would have been a nice progression if the crews of each of the five Artemis missions included more women than the one before.
