Autistics who hyper-fixate on the predominantly icy planetesimals proposed to surround the Sun at great distance should be called Oortistics.

my best friend is undocumented and we’ve had long talks about her fears of being disappeared. I regularly lose sleep over it, which is nothing compared to her.
so I’d just like to say in the kindest way possible: go fuck yourself you conspiracy addled grifter

BlueSky is a bad site used by good people. That describes most social media sites. But BlueSky is egregiously unethical. Any of you can be disappeared for baseless reasons. I've been on social media for 17 years and never been suspended. BlueSky is the first place to do so – over Johnny Cash lyrics.

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.'

beginning to think the Reformation was a mistake guys
The app Text With Jesus uses artificial intelligence and chatbots to offer spiritual guidance to users who are looking to connect with a higher power: on.nbc10.com/7XM8xrf
People can text with Jesus on a controversial new app. How does it work?
Artificial intelligence app Text With Jesus lets users chat with biblical figures and it is raising debate over faith and technology.

Yeah so one of the things you notice about looking through Wehrmacht unit histories is that they'll be immaculate apart from having missing entries on dates that coincide with massacres in their AOR
An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:
ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.
