If #military separation boards decide to allow #transgender service members to remain in uniform, commanders can override that decision, acc/to an Oct 8 memo to all the services from the #Pentagon’s undersecretary for personnel & readiness, Anthony Tata. That breaks with longstanding policy that boards act independently.
It is the #Pentagon’s latest step to drive #transgender troops out of the #ArmedFrces following an executive order from #Trump. He & #Defense Secy #PeteHegseth have targeted #diversity, #equity & #inclusion efforts in what they say is an effort to make the #military more lethal.
The admin’s policies have faced pushback in courts as #trans troops & supporters say they have proven their worth to the military, but #SCOTUS in May allowed the ban to be enforced while legal challenges proceed.
Not sure how I feel about this.
There's Postiz, integrates with #Lemmy #Mastodon and #Bluesky. Looks great, well-designed, #AGPL
There's Gitroom, Github Library, and Grow Chief commercial products around helping open source projects. Okay.
And then there's https://agentheroes.ai ..
> "Generate, animate and schedule your #AI characters 🤖"
All from the same company. AI characters? Like fake accounts that you can let roam these Postiz channels?
It may be well meant, but rife for abuse, no?

on another level
automating "avatar" image creation formally could be an #equity feature
for fedi whatever
since we have people who don't have 8k phone cameras for instance
or just prefer not to
for whatever reason
and
don't necessarily want to spend days on end coding a pixel art piece
to promote themselves
BUT
not sure we need Nvidia GPUs for that
necessarily

The problem isn’t that DHH finally said the quiet part out loud.
The problem is that you’re still pretending it’s shocking, still refusing to connect the dots, and still showing the world that whiteness matters more to you than justice.

Help wanted, please!
If you have *first hand experience* of improving the diversity of a governance board of (currently all men) volunteers, I'd love to hear how you went about it, or resources which helped you, please.
What did you find helped make the role more attractive to a wider range of applicants to join?
(This is in the context of a Free software project, but broader contexts are welcome.)
@neil while this article is about “events”, advice is applicable to the #floss project board too : https://labs.ripe.net/author/becha/spring-and-summer-events-season-2022/
#Inclusion is it possible to participate online ?
#Diversity have a Code of Conduct
#Equity be explicit about your ethics
#Justice make it about political goals of FLOSS (& not only “tech”) ;
work on solving systemic problems -> that will attract different applicants!
And it’s always non-white folx who have to work harder, follow all the rules, and still be told we don’t belong.
By rejecting higher ed as “brainwashing,” white families not only insulated their children from exposure to difference, but also weaponized that rejection to delegitimize the hard-earned achievements of those who relied on education for survival.
The myth of white supremacy ensures that even ignorance is rewarded.

WNBA Incidents Expose Misogyny in Sports Culture
As a coach, an uncle, and a son, I believe we must speak out against the normalization of misogyny. This is bigger than sports—it’s about the dignity and humanity of every woman.
Silence teaches the next generation that power means domination.

📣July is Disability Pride Month, a time to recognize the strength, resilience, and leadership of people with disabilities.
➡️This month, and every month, I am committed to advancing inclusiveness, access, and pride in all abilities across the health and fitness industry, and within the broader community. - Coach Julio

- There is no room for DV in any society.
- Alcoholism is symptom of mental health issues (not addressed comprehensibly in our health system)
- Women overlooked… they are legions and social norms have to change. It’s an educational problem (formal and home schooling both), where more action/funding is required.
A work in progress… for all of us.
It’s Canada Day today. A complicated holiday. I think our greatest chance is to listen to those who are most oppressed, and work to make that world…there are more people in the world who think this than not even though it might not feel like it.
