Most people don't really know any trans people (that they know of) and not everyone spends their time discussing gender identity on the internet. Jumping down people's throats for every stupid question asked in innocent ignorance is not a good look.

I don't know if it means anything but this appears to be a homage (?) to a garbage pail kids card. Can't remember which one, though some of the them were done by Art Spiegelman of Maus fame.

Wait, is Zelda straight? Up until now, this comic had a real "everyone is a lesbian" vibe.

Honestly if you're even aware that SA is a place that exists then there's a pretty reasonable chance that you're perfectly capable of finding quick and easy answers to 101 level poo poo.
Being a patronising gently caress and treating trans people as inherently exotic and unknowable is a super mega ultra bad look, buddy.

A formula for the representation of Israel in the Trump visit
"I just love big-mouthed 70 year old Americans"

In the cartoon, Refaeli purrs in Hebrew: "I can't resist a 70-year-old American with a big mouth." (In real life, the supermodel tagged along with rocker Steven Tyler during his recent visit to Israel.)

From what I understand they all touched together a novelty lamp shaped like a representation of the Earth to turn it on; and it was in the middle of something that supposedly is an anti-terrorist propaganda center or something. The desired symbol was one of a world united in a fight against terrorism, I presume. Instead it ended up looking like a weird occult ritual by a bunch of power-hungry despots in a Bond villain base.

There's some more Trump cartoons and explanations at that page.

I had to look it up too because it as weirding me out. Apparently the orb is a globe and that was all part of some opening for the Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology, which is probably I assume a think tank designed to destroy capitalism.

Looks like a command and conquer base for the cutscenes.

It's really really hard for me to believe that that's not the image they were aiming for, also concerning the design of the room itself.



Unless this picture is a fake or touched up or something. I have seen major news sites comment about the orb touching picture but not this one.

Some of the dinosaurs in the audience might have had one of their parents torn apart by one of them so yeah sounds like a good idea to discuss them delicately.

But uhhh why would this kind of thing come up in a graduation speech?

Hi, you're being an rear end in a top hat. Many people don't even know how to find 101 stuff that's accurate and up to date (in part because trans discourse moves really fast) and access to a cellphone is not inherently tied with research skills. Assuming that everyone has the educational tools to learn about a complex issue with many different sides and active and deliberate deception going on by the anti trans people. This applies to everyone that jumped down a poster's rear end for asking something that I wish I was asked more in person, compared to 'what are you?'.

It’s ransomware that attacked computers around the globe last week. The malware was loaded onto networks through certain versions of Windows. (Microsoft blames the NSA.) It then encrypts your system and demands ransom to unlock your computer. Three hundred dollars payable in bitcoin.

According to Wired WannaCry can tell when it’s being detected and go dormant. Later, when when you least expect it, it comes back. Kind of like shingles for computers.

The feds want software companies to leave backdoors on computers to make it easier to for them snoop around. Unfortunately, bad guys can get in through the back door too.
