I've seen about 5 things this week that people have pointed out were AI that I genuinely couldn't tell. Like a couple that if I really stared at it I get a vague "huh it kind of has a very wipe clean vibe.. I guess?" sensation. christ knows how many that no one told me. great, all images are ruined

The lack of information in prison and overall abysmal health care mean that almost no one even knows what Long COVID is, let alone if it explains their experiences. Some people, like Qaurra Rose, have given up seeking healthcare entirely. thesicktimes.org/2026/09/29/i...
thesicktimes.org
I interviewed five people with Long COVID in prison. They are invisible in the system. - The Sick Times
While there are no data sources on Long COVID in prison, experts suspect rates of the disease may be higher there than in the general population. They face high reinfection risks and poor access to me...

There's a special kind of trauma from the official national equality watchdog specifically become a high profile campaigner against your rights specifically (and cast you as an oppressor in the same breath), which is then called upon by some still as an arbiter of moral authority on bigotry.

The European Alliance of Socialists and Democrats didn't come out and condemn Labour for implementing a bathroom ban. There as some condemnation from ultra progressive places and the trade union movement, but most of the political spectrum and civil society did NOT do this.

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase tell me that all those "you should need a government ID to access the internet" people are rethinking this position now. [We know they aren't. Ed.]
The first two paragraphs of the linked-to story:

"Denmark has suffered a major data breach that has given unauthorised individuals access to names, addresses and personal identification numbers belonging to about 8.8 million people registered in the country’s central population database.

"The breach occurred after unidentified individuals misused a private Danish company’s legitimate access to search the Central Person Register (CPR), the government said in a statement Monday."

Between the British Nationality Act 1948 and the British Nationality Act 1981, UK-born citizens were part of a larger group called "Citizens of the UK and Commonwealth", & had no other distinct label, in law. Only in 1981 was "British citizenship" made a category.

Rending the Garments
By Ronna Bloom

There should be a shiva for every kind of grief—
the break-up, the diagnosis, the assault—
where people come unbidden and
wash their hands and casseroles
and hold you.

They do this all day or three times a day
for seven days so you know, you know
it happened and matters to more
than you, matters to a community of you.

What’s needed is wailing with an ax, frights,
outings, and touch. Touch and singing.
Can you hear me?
Has anyone done that for you, lately
Or ever? Come over, torn open the sky
and let the snow fall in the wrong mouth
to show there’s a rip in the face of the world?

I had a phase of having recurring nightmares where washed out cadaverous animated gollum was chasing me through a forest of brambles trying to burn me with one of those built in car cigarette lighters with the glowing coil they used to have which were another of my many fears

I remember being really scared of gollum in an animated version of lord of the rings from maybe the 60s or 70s that I saw as a kid but when I just tried to look this up none of them looked like my memories of it which is disconcerting.
