Just over 12% of the US adult population identifies as LGBTQ+, with a whooping 2.34% identifying as trans
According to the article, the 2.34% figure includes all non-binary people.
I thought it seemed high for trans, but now it seems low for all non-gender-conforming.

Opposite scenario in my dept. The boss wants to improve our time tracking so he can justify asking for more staff.
"Yes the rest of the org needs 500 new starters a week but you guys can manage, right?"

The answer to that question involves talking about the French and what happened in 1066!
Tbf though, Webster tried simplifying some words for American English. He just didn't manage to get them all.

Great question. Intention matters, so many countries focus on speech that can only be malicious, like incitement to violence in the UK or Nazi salutes in Germany.

Labour wins majority in UK General Elections as Tories lose two-thirds of seats

Not sure what you mean. He's well known for having one stance under Corbyn and another when leader. The first being quite radical and socially progressive, the second being essentially Tory but a bit better. Which bit did they make up: the before or after?

China Launches New Wave of Uyghur Cultural Erasure After “Ethnic Unity Law”
Reply in thread
What the law says and what the state does can be two different things. That's true for the West and China.
We know what the CCP does to China's ethnic minority communities. Reciting the word of the law doesn't change the evidence of how the state implements it.

This is entirely new to me. What do you mean non-binary is trans? I know plenty of enbies who are not trans.

I honestly both agree and disagree. The tunes were absolute bangers but 30 seconds is quite long enough for opening titles.

YSK that TikTok is harming children at an industrial scale. We know this because we obtained internal documents from the company

Web 2.0 is the umbrella term for a bunch of things that enabled the social media we see today. Infinite scroll, notification toasts and asynchronous loading of new content to name a few.
If we had to reload a page every time we wanted new content we would see way less and move on more quickly.
