Besides being embarrassing for all involved, it also means any cis-male can walk right into the women's restroom. Even guys that are not there to use the restroom!

Bathroom bans are stupid!

Today in Writing History May 5, 1864: Nellie Bly, American journalist and author, was born on this day. Bly was famous for her record-breaking trip around the world, which she completed in 72 days. This was faster than Phineas Fogg’s trip, in Jules Verne’s “Around the World in 80 Days.” However, she also pioneered investigative journalism. In one of her most celebrated pieces, she went undercover to report on abuse and neglect at the Women’s Lunatic Asylum on Blackwell’s Island. Her report created a sensation, which led to some reforms.

BladeoftheSun @bladeofthes.bsky.social writes: Since 2008 average wealth has almost tripled. But median wealth has fallen, because nearly 90% of people have gotten poorer. While the richest 1% have taken more than 95% of the new money. You work and work and work, and they take more and more and more.

In the latest in Academic complicity with Israel's Genocide against the Palestinian people, New York University School of Law has just barred 31 pro-Palestine law school students from campus facilities and demanded that they sign away their right to protest in exchange for being allowed to return. If the students don’t renounce their right to protest on campus, they will be unable to sit for final exams.

Not now, sweetie. I'm trying to understand why Israel dictates my right to free speech in America! Smiley face. Posted by Kristine Rowe

In honor of #maythe4th
a quote from a reader.

"More fun than Star Wars, less earnest than Star Trek.”

I don't take that praise lightly.

The Space Rogues series is perfect beach/pool reading. Fast paced. Witty banter. A diverse cast of characters.

The image features a beach setting with a clear blue sky and turquoise ocean in the background. In the foreground, there are three books and a tablet displaying the cover of a book titled "Space Rogues." The books are titled "The Adventures of Wil Calder" (Book 1), "Stay Warm Don't Do" (Book 4), and "The Behemoth" (Book 3), all by John Wilker. The covers depict space scenes with spaceships and planets. To the right of the books, there is a glass filled with a red beverage, possibly a frozen drink, with a straw. The books and the tablet are arranged on the sand, creating a casual and inviting atmosphere. Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B 🌱 Energy used: 0.159 Wh

The Adventures of Wil Calder -

Wil Calder is looking for a crew. He isn’t being picky. He should be. With a crew of misfits from across the Galactic Commonwealth, Wil takes a job. Break into a space station. Straightforward enough.

My son comes downstairs with all his medieval garb on and asks if I can take a photo of him with a bow/arrow, for a physics assignment: take a photo of something with kinetic and potential energy, extra points for an action shot. 10 mins later we're high-fiving our nerd success.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Paste, is in fact, Surfactant/Paste, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Surfactant plus Paste. Paste is not a dental hygiene system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning ADA system made useful by the ADA corepastes, brush utilities and vital floss components comprising a full HS as defined by BOFA.
