Pedro Pascal, an actual good person, has a message for JK Rowling and every neo-nazi cunt who has allied with her.
The reason you should pay attention to transphobia (even if you and everyone you know are cis):
They're the canary in the cultural coal mine: when the social atmosphere turns poisonous, it hits them first—and shortly thereafter, it'll poison you too, one way or another.
Because socially accepted bigotry *always* gets worse, if we don't stop it in its tracks immediately.

Yay
Today Melissa Lewis over on BlueSky pointed out that the font used in the infamous "You wouldn't steal a car" anti-piracy campaign was actually designed by Just van Rossum, whose brother, Guido, created the Python programming language (bsky.app/profile/melissa.news/post/3ln7hx5rhcj2v)
She also pointed out that the font had been cloned and released illegally for free under the name "XBAND Rough". Naturally, it would be hilarious if the anti-piracy campaign actually turned out to have used this pirated font, so I went sleuthing and quickly found a PDF from the campaign site with the font embedded (web.archive.org/web/20051223202935/http://www.piracyisacrime.com:80/press/pdfs/150605_8PP_brochure.pdf).
So I chucked it into FontForge and yep, turns out the campaign used a pirated font the entire time!
Jobcenter so: Komm zu nem Zwangstermin
Ich so: Geht nicht, da hab ich n Bewerbungsgespräch.
Jobcenter so. Fickt dich wir Sanktionieren dich.
Ich so: Widerspruch hier habt ihr Nachweise
Jobcenter so: taha, wir ändern einfach die Zeit von dem Termin und lehnen den Widerspruch ab weil der Termin angeblich zu einer anderen Zeit gewesen wäre.
Fickt euch einfach nur.
Aber man kann natürlich auch ein Netz aus Vorurteilen spinnen.

As all academics know, you can't ask this question in a job interview.

But I guess it's OK when it's not a job interview, when it's the govt asking, and the govt includes a high-ranking official who gives #Nazi salutes.
This happened at #BarnardCollege. Probably no accident that Barnard is affiliated with #Columbia. Trump officials said they had a right to the personal contact info, and the school handed it over.
