I'm curious about the numbers for corrective surgery performed at birth to assign a newborn as either male or female, when born with abnormal genitalia. This is a rather significant number of babies, as many as 1.7% of births showing intersex traits. And a minimum of 1 in 2000 births being hermaphroditic.

Are states that ban any trans care for children also banning any corrective surgery in all babies? I have yet to see any discussion of this issue, even though it is arguably a much bigger issue. At least by the numbers...

This is the graph everyone needs to see for International Workers' Day.

Looks like it is possible that the current chair of the Libertarian Party is an unregistered foreign agent for Russia.

Not really surprised at this possibility.

What is a good way to get a phone number for a guy when all you know is name and address? Seems all the online sources want me to buy a subscription.

I got a 2nd random text... Apparently someone in LA was giving out my number to young women at an Art Gala.

I just got a random text message from someone in LA asking me out for Italian. I answered "New phone, who dis?" What I hoped was it was the person who had randomly texted me years ago, and we struck up a friendship that lasted a couple of years, until my phone crashed and I lost her number. *sigh*

Wikipedia is now on Mastodon, at @wikipedia!

They've taken an interesting approach here, as it is an account run by the community, where everyone can contribute (explanation here: meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/@Wikip). At the same time, it is verified on the official homepage of wikipedia.org, as you can see in the screenshot.

Personally, I think this suits the spirit of the fediverse that the Wikipedia account is not a PR department, but community members building something together!
