If you allow a child to determine whether he or she “transitions” without parental consent, it is a very, very small step to allowing the child to determine whether he or she will have sexual relations with adults.
What’s the moral difference?
There is nothing particularly special about LGBTQ ideology that merits special protection, as against any of dozens of other issues. Expect more #Amazensorship.
The Chinese communists use genocide, reeducation, and torture against people of faith. Remember: not an example to emulate. >
Maybe the Bible won’t be cancelled after Dr. Seuss and “When Harry Became Sally.” Progressives mock the idea. OK; I have a question:
Why not?
Once again, HR1 is not just typically bad legislation. It is absolutely, completely bonkers for *any* sane person. Pass it, it’s game over. > thefederalist.com/2021/…
It is disgusting and infuriating to me that academia has become a place where pedophiles can masquerade as serious researchers—”scientists”—and thereby defend at great length, over a period of decades, their thoroughly evil sexual proclivities.
They aren’t called pedophiles because they love children.
They’re called pedophiles because they love to rape children.
Australia’s ABC ordered journalists not to refer to child rapists as “pedophiles,” because that would hurt the feelings of pedophiles. Never mind that pedophiles are evil (see larrysanger.org/2019/12…).
We’re not supposed to notice that the Bible is 100x edgier and more offensive to certain postmodern sensibilities than anything recently canceled.
That’s by design. “Last week we canceled Dr. Seuss, and now you’re defending the Bible? Monster!”
This judge, which ordered the arrest of a local election official when over 3/4 of absentee ballots were found invalid, really needs to be arrested for incitement to violence—conspiracy theorist! >
Man in Wales arrested, strip searched for taking a walk too far from home. Necessary to prevent the spread of Covid-19, is it? > summit.news/2021/03/01/…
“Conservatives outraged that anti-trans book removed from Amazon”
says the Independent as if liberals are OK with books being removed >
I have funding as well as a great developer working on a slick WordPress plugin that will turn your blog into a social media platform (like startthis.org only better). RSS will be a lingua franca enabling social media interoperability.
Is it just my fertile imagination or am I irrational for worrying that Archive.org, one of the great websites, is going to be, I dunno, restricted in the near future? Isn’t this too much dangerous info in one place?
When Kermit is cancelled since he’s supposedly offensive, the irony is that people find such stupid cancellation truly offensive. Read:

Actually, what’s truly racist is the notion that objectivity and rigorously demonstrable truth, such as are found in math, are somehow special features of whiteness. What insulting, demoralizing garbage. Read:
RIP Rush Limbaugh
Hi @Expedia. Why is it so hard to print a simple flight itinerary? A single simple page with all and only the info I need. The fact that you don’t supply this shows conclusively that you put profits before customers (of course).
Batman spotted in Turkey.
Trump is the only president to have been acquitted twice of utterly ridiculous charges brought by a corrupt Establishment. Again, not impeached twice: acquitted twice.
By their actions, the D.C. swamp creatures have merely impeached themselves.
If you are (a) 100% devoted to Internet liberty (esp. free speech), privacy, & open source (also open content, hardware, and standards), and (b) you’re interested in nonprofit support of that liberty, particularly through old-fashioned distributed networks, get in touch.
If the current trial were legit & constitutional, the Chief Justice would be duty bound to participate; he could be impeached himself if he did not participate. He is not participating. Ergo, the trial is illegitimate & unconstitutional.
I wonder how much #WordPress spam actually originates from Big Tech bad actors who are essentially working to shut down a big source of competition.
If I were evil and wanted to shore up my market reach, I might do this. Rational strategy.
“News of the obvious” and surrealistic fake news are both ever-present and increasingly boring constants. This is not good and will not end well. Read >

In principle, I like the idea of crypto/blockchain content projects. But most, if not all, simply trade on the idea of “decentralization”—even as they (probably deliberately) remain functionally centralized. Sorry—I wish the news were better.
I have finally fixed the http > https problem. Ugh, taking too long solving problems like that is what I get for self-hosting the site.
It turns out there already are RSS feeds for Mastodon.social pages. See, for example, my feed here: mastodon.social/@lsanger.rss. Pretty cool.
Feedly already lets me view a feed of microblogs from multiple sources. Look at the screencap >
Somebody is trying to port his tweets to the Fediverse. An important step toward making social media 100% interoperable. Can anyone help?
11/ Here’s an MP3 of a couple of tunes played on the piano I got earlier today, a George Steck baby grand, before a tuning. It’s close to in tune already.
