In a world that’s both unsettling and fascinating, Mattel just launched an autistic Barbie—complete with a loose dress to visually signal “neurodiversity.” I would have paid good money to sit in those product development meetings.

We are only at the beginning of the "enshittification" process, which will develop over time. Doctorow himself has already written about this. Bluesky has shareholders. Nobody invests without expecting a financial return. As a journalist, I can guarantee that history tends to repeat itself.

Congratulations, PSG - Paris Saint-Germain! 🥳 🥂

Journalist Brian Deer "found that not one of the 12 cases reported in the 1998 Lancet paper was free of misrepresentation or undisclosed alteration, and that in no single case could the medical records be fully reconciled with the descriptions, diagnoses, or histories published in the journal."

Maybe he thinks that all of South America is Venezuela? (except him *possibly* remembering Argentina (bailout money) and Brazil (Bolsonaro) exist?)

Gary Numan is 13 days older than Gary Oldman. I don't even know what to believe any more.

To be honest given that The Game Awards completely axed and abandoned the whole Future Class program when the alumni organized to demand the show acknowledge Palestinian genocide, it's IMMENSELY embarassing how many people in our industry still support it, attend it, or even give it the time of day.

Soooo... PayPal is banning Asahi Linux users. Hey, can you maybe not do that please? gist.github.com/asahilina/31... Yes, they ban Linux users with a GPU name containing the string "Apple M1". Anything else works.

Analyzing blood samples from patients with long COVID, researchers dentified unusual microscopic structures that may contribute to symptoms such as brain fog and fatigue. If this is the case, it offers a hopeful target for future treatment. www.sciencealert.com/strange-stru...

Sherlock Holmes wasn't explicitly autistic, but he had the traits: tunnel vision and hyperfocus on details. Today's detective shows are taking that archetype further – with nuanced characters who are empathetic, have relationships and are played by neurodivergent actors. buff.ly/2jRsA3B
