HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'
'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

Also, just mentioning that Microsoft are still a BDS boycott primary target, so even if you don't care about a mega-budget AAA game cheaping out and using generic AI-generated art, you should care because the publisher *called the FBI* to investigate their own staff for anti-genocidal sentiments.

Call of Duty isn't even hiding the fact that loads of its calling cards and other unlockables are AI generated this year.

got banned once for saying, hypothetically, TERFs should step on nails and get tinnitus. it was a multidmensionally funny ban, and very good because I could enjoy my new year's eve
everyone gets so mad at the mods here for doing basic mod shit. sometimes you gotta make a little murder joke and eat a three day ban for it. that’s life baby, there’s beauty in that.

nintendo adding full voice acting into their full-scale games and then promptly overdoing it three major titles later is the most nintendo thing possible

pedophilia apologia very much aligns with the right wing's very much recorded fantasy that everything terrible and immoral is okay bc it happens in a fantasy life detached from their own existences, when we know these guys would point their rifles at anyone that came close to their own 15yos
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

I'm a voiceover actor, you've heard me on your TV, radio or the web over the 36 years of my career. My bread-and-butter work used to be narrating training films and corporate videos, used to be at least 1/3 of my income. MOST of that work is now AI. My agents are dying, fellow talent are struggling.
How is AI *really* impacting jobs?
Henley Chiu, the CTO of Revealera, a jobs data analysis firm, analyzed 180 million jobs listings in 2024 and 2025, in an effort to find out. Chiu found an:
-8% drop in all jobs postings
-~30% drop in art, photography, writing jobs
-22% drop in journalism jobs

What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?
