“Why do Palestinians teach their children to hate Israel?”

They don’t. Generations of Palestinian children have been taught to hate Israel by Israeli soldiers just like these ones.

This is what a lack of knowledge about what's actually being regulated and why it's being regulated looks like.

Sex tests are not merely mouth swabs. These tests are not about excluding trans women from the WTA.

Any female identified with a SRY gene will be subjected to secondary sex testing procedures. The last time the Olympics did sex testing 8 women were found to have an SRY gene. All underwent invasive secondary testing and all were cleared to compete as they had no advantage. Sadly all of their careers and in one case her life was lost via suicide.

In 2014 Duttee Chand failed an initial SRY test so the @WorldAthletics made Duttee undergo a chromosome analysis, an M.R.I. and a gynecological exam that she found mortifying. To evaluate the effects of high testosterone, the @WorldAthletics and IOC’e sex testing secondary protocol involves measuring and palpating the clitoris, vagina and labia, as well as evaluating breast size and pubic hair scored on an illustrated five-grade scale.

This measure to return to sex testing of female athletes represents a return to practices that are unethical, unscientific and discriminatory and which were widely condemned in the past by doctors, bioethics experts and international human rights organisations. Even the scientist who discovered it says the IOC should not use SRY test to determine gender of women's athletes.

There is no scientific evidence linking the SRY gene an advantage in sporting performance. No one has yet been able to find any connection between this gene and athletic performance.

Seth Rogen reveals Hollywood studios will no longer approve movies based on script and director alone.

​"When we made Superbad, they bought our script, hired a director, said it would have a $20 million budget, and it would start shooting in April. That would never happen today in 100 million years."

​"No studio would just buy a script, give it a release date, cast it, and then make it."

​"Now, everything has to be in place before they will decide whether or not they're making it. Who's the director? Who are the actors? Are they famous enough? Do they have big enough names? If not, we gotta get different ones, or else we won't make it."

​"Amy Pascal was willing to just say, 'Make this movie. You'll put the funniest people in it, that will make the best version of the movie, and the best version of this movie is what will make us the most money.' That is not said anymore, really, in Hollywood."

❗️ A lenticular spoof ad at a bus stop near Meta's London headquarters flips TV personality Kylie Jenner's smart glasses campaign into a skeletal surveillance warning depending on where you stand.

The design borrows from They Live, the 1988 film where special sunglasses expose the manipulation hidden inside advertising.

The underlying concern is real, since the latest Ray-Ban Meta generation records up to three minutes of continuous video, has stealth mods and researchers have demonstrated again and again that footage can be matched to names and addresses using facial recognition.

Honored to unveil my poster for the 20th Anniversary release of Pan’s Labyrinth in theaters for @RealGDT - 20 years ago, I was creating covers for a DC/Vertigo series called Fables, and also developed a collaboration with Prada based on fairytales (which included a tiny porcelain Faun). Pan’s Labyrinth was an artistic achievement that not only spoke to the moment and of deep mythology, but represented an uncompromising vision that inspired me and countless others.
