GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%.

Mangione still faces second-degree murder, but no longer the possibility of life without parole

“I trust my immune system. I don’t need a vaccine.” Ok, I trust mine to protect me too. Which is why I trained it extensively on what the virus looks like so it can handle it. Boxers don’t enter the ring without a plan. It’s the punch you don’t see coming that knocks you out.

The delicious end to the affair. 48 hours of the most august and respectable institutions prostrating themselves over a low rent gutter bigot with a middling podcast and as soon as his death didnt fit the narrative Trump says "RIP to that man, check out my new drapes" humiliation after humiliation

as soon as there's evidence the shooter's identity isn't easy to weaponize things magically become complicated

i dont think multiple democratic governors should have lowered flags to half mast for a racist who said gay people should be stoned. i dont think a democratic governor should have called for continuing "the work" of a man who said mlk was a myth and evil. is that too much to ask? ffs.

fascism seeks to die a glorious death in battle, martyred and respected even by the enemies they want to exterminate, as compensation for its pathetic emptiness. that is why there is no way to establish a moral high ground

For the first time, scientists have quantified the causal links between worsening heat waves and global warming pollution from individual fossil fuel and cement companies, pushing the boundaries of extreme weather event research in multiple surprising ways.

Yep, and right before he was shot he blamed trans people for mass shootings and then in response to a question about the total number of mass shootings goes "counting or not counting gang violence?" The crack lands like a punctuation mark

People are noticing the revolution in Nepal for the first time and pearl clutching about the violence of the protesters and like yeah man if you open fire with live ammo and murder 19 protesters in cold blood they're going to kill you when their time comes Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Vinay Prasad, a former adult oncologist, has moved to disrupt the childhood vaccine schedule by asserting - against all evidence - that administering multiple vaccines at the same time “could blunt their efficacy.” The added burden/delay of separating shots would sharply reduce US vaccination rates.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive GLOBAL study revealed COVID-19 vaccines utilizing mRNA technology PREVENTED OVER 2.5 MILLION deaths WORLDWIDE between 2020 and 2024. It reveals that vaccinations didn’t JUST protect against illness. They PRESERVED nearly 15 MILLION years of human life.

Sam isn’t the type to be able to speak up for herself, or ask out the woman she likes -but that’s okay, because there’s something inside her[ more than willing to handle all that for her… A superbly squelchy serving of body horror from @limesquares.bsky.social: don't miss 'Foreign Bodies’ !

it is funny that file replicability is probably one of the earliest potentially postcapitalist technologies to emerge but the entirety of the internet eventually became structured around being a privatized system of enclosures to constrain and prevent file "piracy" and free information access

Pritzker is demonstrating that you can stand up to Trump, protect your own voters and do it all without throwing trans folx or immigrants under the bus. You really do love to see it.

Two rural, South Texas Dems joined Republicans in passing the bathroom bill: Rep. Sergio Muñoz (D-Mission) and Richard Peña Raymond (D-Laredo)

There’s an enormous amount of stuff in this book I’d like to highlight, but start with: “What emerges as the most elementary insight is that, since we do not now have any ways of making computers wise, we ought not now to give computers tasks that demand wisdom.”

I finally read computer scientist Joseph Weizenbaum’s 1976 classic “Computer Power and Human Reason.” This book deserves a massive revival in our current age of grotesque and largely thoughtless AI creep into everything:

I often talk about the fact that MAGA does not access the same news as the left wing. I present to you Exhibit A. Dr. Daskalakis’ resignation letter excoriated RFK Jr. and shared that RFK Jr. was lying to the public, manipulating data, and ordering unethical actions. This what Fox News served.

My nation's politics, I've always assumed has been irrelevant to most people in the world. I rarely ever find any purpose in talking about it because I find it hard to believe that anyone but ourselves would care, but Indonesian police brutality is truly incredible.

the final insult of AI is going to be forcing us all to become linux guys. we're all going to be like oh yeah downloading stuff on linux is super easy you just juice the tarball and compile the pulp in the sudo command line. not like windows where you have to click on things

part 1 is all about freud. part 2 is both lacan and irigaray. the phenomenon of the "coexistence of the dual" that constantly reoccurs as a theme in part 2 is irigaray's framework of sexual difference. lacan is of course the language of how desire in part 2 operates

fujimoto's cursed with being in a situation where he is making a manga abt exploring the trauma of sexual assault - via state violence, religion, family, war, misogynistic objectification, CSA, & the process of "becoming a Man" by severing the connection to a sisterhood (nayuta is gone) through

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

Turn off AI in search results. I just did this in Chrome and it works. tenbluelinks.org#chrome-windows

The junta in Myanmar is engaging in a coordinated campaign of disinformation on Facebook, creating networks of accounts to post comments supporting the regime & attacking its enemies. FB's step back from moderation is letting those that carried out the Rohingya genocide use the same playbook AGAIN
