Muttday #23 || The Overton Window

Please, Please, I’m begging you here, do not make me have to report on the start of WWIII.

Otherwise the rest of the news was… well normal by the wildly skewed standards of 2025-26.

Trump being a dictatorial fascist, Democrats, but especially the supposedly progressive governors, being pathetic cowards, or in the case of Gavin Trump 3.0 Newsom, also just a fascist. Hells, the man had Ben Shapiro on his own podcast! Rightwingers barely like that weirdo anymore!

There’s an AI news roundup covering the latest Windows 11 bug, the Wikipedia AI deal, Salesforce regretting jettisoning 44% of their staff back in September, and discord running “fun” age verification experiments.

On the even less fun side I have stories about a bunch of malicious actors in trans circles using the allegations of a younger trans girl to rehabilitate their images without actually undoing the harm they’ve done. All while the allegations turned out to be entirely fabricated. It’s the kind of story where EVERYONE comes away looking like abusers.

Oh, plus a thing on Monster Hunter Wilds FPS fixes, and James Gurney, the illustrator behind the beautiful Dinotopia books, has sadly gone full AI-slop monster.
