What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?

When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.

Instructor who gave U of Oklahoma student a zero on anti-trans paper removed from teaching

Graduate assistant Mel Curth found Samantha Fulnecky's paper unscientific and offensive in referring to trans people as "demonic."

They fired her.

The university also placed another teacher on leave for allowing her students to leave class to attend a protest in support the instructor.

[bonniebugsy]

Completely unrelated, but current students of OU are transferring out and alumni are wanting refunds for their tuition, since OU has made it abundantly clear that their degrees aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

[canary-prince]

If you call the university's main number and express polite confusion over the situation, they will transfer you to someone to talk to about it. So if you feel like playing Concerned Parent: 1-405-325-0311

And here’s the business of the mom who orchestrated this whole plan to get a trans woman fired from teaching, in case you want to let her customers know what a lying sack of shit she is

my mum has severe knee problems and needs a replacement. Today she was told she's too fat to be operated on and the knee specialist suggested she gets a gastric band - which also involves surgery. So my mum was like first of all you didn't read my file because it explains that I'm not fat because I eat too much second of all you said it's impossible for me to get surgery and then suggested I get a surgery about it? He then asked her her weight and height, didn't believe her answer, and made her prove it to him because she "looks fatter than that". So she was like so you also just entirely based this on looks instead of actual numbers?

[undead-moth]

My mom went through something similar. She needed a knee replacement and her doctor wouldn’t okay it until she lost weight, which was difficult given the whole knee problem preventing her from walking thing. He told her she was too dangerous to operate on and that there were just too many risks.

My mom tried to lose weight in vain for months before she finally gave into my begging her to get a second opinion. The first doctor she saw next scheduled her for surgery the same day she met him. When my mom asked about the risk of operating on her he told her that there was some minor risks for complication and that all she would need to do to alleviate the risk was spend an extra night in the hospital so that they could keep a look out for any complications.

There were zero. There were also zero complications when she had her other knee done, her hip replaced and her gallbladder removed.

Almost like the first doctor was entirely full of shit and just trying to coerce his patient to lose weight by scaring her for fucking nothing, even when she was living day to day in excruciating pain and desperately needed a surgery.

As is tradition in tumblr culture the locals unearth the corpse of a long deceased figure and drag it across the streets merrily, laughing at what is preserved of the person’s words. This custom, seen as morbid in other cultures, is instead done gleefully and with an unmatched enthusiasm

As a guide, its best to remove everything after the ? in HTML. It's sometimes useful, but in those cases, you'll probably already know what it's for.

[mckitterick]

if you use Firefox, there's an extension called ClearURLs that removes a lot of these automatically, or you can paste in any messy URL and it'll clean it for you
