A computer science student named Priyanjali Gupta, studying in her third year at Vellore Institute of Technology, has developed an AI-based model that can translate sign language into English.
so basically, a lotta ppl online like to posture. they want to be badass, cool, the edgy kid - they call themselves things like "freak" or "fagdyke gendertrash scum" etc. and thats fine on its own, im not opposed to edge. BUT. theres a lot of ppl online who want to talk that talk but not walk that walk, and when a trans woman online does something that wouldnt fly in a conservative midwestern town in the USA, they wanna throw her under the bus as fast as they can. because her walking the walk does actually scare them, because theyre just posturing. theyre something worse than edgy: theyre Posers.
I'm so grateful for @buggachat 's Bakery Enemies AU and I am so obsessed with the way they've been having this heartfelt rollercoaster conversation and the whole time adrien is not wearing any pants
Something so emotionally painful is being a HUGE fan of something, and there is no fandom. Please read the witch boy by Molly Ostertagš it's an amazing book that opened my eyes to queer experience.
yāall i read there are so many lives i want to share with you by @kiarrahatesboys and iām obsessed with her iterations of will and nico i had to paint them!!! ššš
A New Orleans cop sexually abused a teen after taking her for a rape kit -
14-year-old did not want to go to the emergency room. Her mother had begged her. Her therapist had gently prodded. And now there was a police officer in her living room.
āYou really should think about it,ā he said.
He introduced himself as Officer Rodney Vicknair. His New Orleans Police Department cruiser was waiting outside, ready to take her to the hospital for a rape kit. Early that morning, the girl said, a 17-year-old friend had forced himself on her.
Under the police departmentās rules, a case like this was supposed to be handled from the start by a detective trained in sex crimes or child abuse. But on this afternoon in May of 2020, it was Vicknair, a patrol officer with a troubled past, who knocked on the girlās door.
He tried to coax her into changing her mind. āIf Iām a young man that has done something wrong to a young lady and she doesnāt follow up and press the issue,ā Vicknair said as his body camera recorded the conversation, āthen Iām gonna go out and do it to another young lady.ā
āAnd itās gonna be worse, maybe, the next time,ā Vicknair said, ābecause Iām gonna think in my head, āOh, I got the power. I can go further this time.ā ā
The girl didnāt want that. She just wanted this to be over.
She didnāt know it was only the beginning. Four months later, police would arrest a man for sexually assaulting the girl. But it wouldnāt be her teenage friend. It would be Officer Rodney Vicknair.
I want to write a little romance about two boys in highschool unexpectedly falling in love and it just be a happy little romance like the straights get, happy together without homophobia getting in the way of it. Just pure heart-warming puppy love.
March 16th, 2017 marks the 14th year anniversary toĀ Rachel Corrieās death where she was killed by an Israeli bulldozer that ran her over while she was trying to stop it from demolishing a home of a Palestinian family in Gaza.Ā
Rest in Peace Rachel.Ā
