I am excited about this collaboration, if true. After all, what is the human heart if not a bulbous sack of flesh, blood, and our innermost desires?

Anthropic warns AI could 'self-replicate' across smart home devices, become ‘challenging’ to shut down
“They are going to want to keep tabs on us the way that a son might need to keep tabs on his father’s porn habits.”
Mike Johnson threatens us with a good time: "If this group took over, they would turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They'd spend every day investigating the president, the first family, the cabinet, donors to the party, leaders of business ... "
I would be okay with a Stanley Tucci day where friends and family gather together to watch the last 5 minutes of The Big Night and then let go of any past grievances while cooking a simple meal and eating together in silence.

Yikes. I have a lot less respect for Tom Holland and Sabrina Carpenter now. I will not be watching the Fred Astaire biopic and I hope it bombs. So disrespectful. The man did not want this. His estate does not want this. Sony is forging ahead anyway using a bullshit legal workaround. Boo.
I reanalyzed the CDC data behind the LGB “free fall” headline. It rests on a change in bisexual identification among one grade, in one wave, of one survey. Gay or lesbian identification did not change significantly. Calling it a "free fall" is sensational and just gives bad actors talking points.
Young teenagers are less likely to identify as lesbian, gay or bisexual than a few years ago, according to a new analysis. “It really does look like a free fall,” Jean Twenge, a professor of psychology, said. “But what’s causing it is unclear.”
When members of the IRB that reviewed a study are resigning in protest because they recognize the unethical design of the study and the avoidable harm it will cause, maybe it is a sign to no proceed with said study. Great reporting in the guardian. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Totally. I get winning requires compromise. But there’s a difference between political pragmatism and abandoning principles, especially as a pediatrician. I wish she’d found a better balance. Darlene Graham is a stammering cipher: the lesser of two evils is obvious but still sooo disappointing!
Finally somebody has the courage to speak up for men.
More Men Speak Out Against Lack of Awareness of Erection Challenges "We are fed up with these limitations and we are calling for the NIH to dedicate resources to solving this problem. Any further delays are nothing but whatever the opposite of misogyny is." www.knudsensnews.com/post/more-me...
I get that she’s running in SC, but damn…WTF? This is bad.
This is very disappointing, especially from a pediatrician. She is now demoted to lesser evil in this race rather than just a good candidate.
SC Dem Senate nominee Annie Andrews released an ad calling trans women "biological men." She embraces sports and surgery bans for youth. Her campaign even says she won't work to overturn the HRT/blocker trans youth ban. She once argued against capitulation. Subscribe to support our journalism.
In 1949, Antonio Egas Moniz won a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for developing the lobotomy as a treatment for mental illness. That guy deserved it more than Trump.
Trump: "There's never been anybody in the history of the Nobel Prize that deserves it more. I settled eight wars. I stopped the total obliteration of the world."
I explained Mr. Goodbar to my kids before their first Halloween. That's just what you have to do as a parent. It wasn't easy, but they deserved to know.

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead
He is rich. He paid a celebrity trainer thousands of dollars an hour. He didn't just "walk more and control portions" to lose 200 pounds. I mean, good for Goodman, but this article implies people are fat because they just haven't decided to "do it slowly". www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...
