In personal victories, I was able to get Smöl Boy the right shirt for an event, AND I was able to modify a new clothing item I bought for myself, to fit exactly how I prefer. I wasn’t sure if it was possible —sometimes it’s not!— and it totally was! And my mod fixed another weird issue w/ the item!

AI filmmaking is completely unserious.
You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

Not the signature song, but now that I’ve seen ALL the Star Wars, I can definitively say “The Saga Begins” was the correct story for that parody. jfcccc enough Skywalkers already

Writers if you could drop your novel or short story into an AI and have it make a great and watchable movie out of your story, and you could sell that movie, would you do it? #writers #WritingCommunity

But it's a big hassle to use and I make a mess.

According to the study’s authors, COVID vaccination was effective in all ALL groups and in persons with OR without major chronic conditions.
The study has been published in the New England Journal of Medicine. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.

🧪🧵⬇️
![RESULTS
At 6 months of follow-up, the estimated vaccine effectiveness was 29.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 19.1 to 39.2) against Covid-19-associated emergency department visits (risk difference per 10,000 persons,
18.3; 95% CI, 10.8 to 27.6), 39.2% (95% Cl, 21.6 to 54.5) against Covid-19-associated hospitalizations (risk difference per 10,000 persons, 7.5; 95% Cl, 3.4 to 13.0), and 64.0% (95% CI, 23.0 to 85.8) against Covid-19-associated deaths (risk difference per 10,000 persons,
2.2; 95% Cl, 0.5 to 6.9). Vaccine effectiveness against a composite of these outcomes was 28.3% (95% CI, 18.2 to 38.2), with a risk difference per 10,000 persons of 18.2 (95% Cl, 10.7 to 27.5). The Covid-19 vaccine was associated with decreased risks of these outcomes across prespecified subgroups defined according to age (<65 years, 65 to 75 years, and >75 years), the presence or absence of major coexisting conditions, and immunocompetence status.
CONCLUSIONS
In this national cohort of U.S. veterans, the receipt of the 2024-2025 Covid-19 vaccine was associated with decreased risks of severe clinical outcomes.

Well now, would you look at that?
A massive study of NEARLY 300,000 people in the United States found that receiving an updated 2024-2025 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine REDUCED people’s risk of SEVERE disease AND death in ALL age groups, REGARDLESS of immunity from prior infection or vaccination.
