It's telling that men would rather try to invent tech to replace humans' role in caregiving than step up as equal partners in parenting. Telling, that is, in that it shows how financial capitalism and patriarchy work together to dissuade men from doing "unprofitable" labor, like the work of care.

My wife: Can you read our baby a book?
Me: I can just play an audiobook from my phone.
My wife: But then it won't be in your voice.
Me: I can train a voice model.
Parenting hits different when you work in Al.

No matter how bad you're imagining this is, I guarantee it's worse -- explicitly being sold to record sex without consent
One couple, a man and a woman whose TikTok account is dedicated to shopping content designed to garner affiliate commissions on TikTok Shop purchases, have made several videos promoting less-expensive smart glasses. In some of these videos, they market what they claim are light-free glasses by pretending that the woman is unaware that her partner was recording her during sex due to the lack of an indicator light.

“Whew! Dang, baby. That was real good — and a good video, too,” the man tells the woman in one such video. The woman, who’s filmed point-of-view-style as she pretends to zip up her pants, feigns confusion. “Video?” she asks.

This week's #LongCOVID research updates from @mileswgriffis.bsky.social: thesicktimes.org/2026/10/06/r...
Helicobacter pylori infection seen medical imaging. The bacteria appears dark brown in clumps in an endoscopic gastric biopsy image. The text reads, “The Sick Times. Long COVID research updates. As many as 2.3 million new cases of cancer were triggered by infections worldwide in 2024. One in 10 adults stated that COVID-19 worsened a pre-existing health condition long term. A recent commentary argues that Long COVID is an occupational disease for teachers.”🤒 As many as 2.3 million new cases of cancer were triggered by infections worldwide in 2024, according to new research in The Lancet Oncology. French researchers analyzed a large database of cancer incidence from 2024, looking at specific diagnoses that were attributable to infections. They assessed twelve infections including HIV and found that the bacteria H. pylori, human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)  had the largest number of cases attributable to them. The researchers concluded that some of these infections, like HPV and HBV, are preventable with vaccines, and that more research for EBV vaccines is needed. EBV has also been linked to multiple sclerosis and Lupus. The study did not assess SARS-CoV-2.
🦠 One in 10 adults stated that COVID-19 worsened a pre-existing health condition long term, according to a new preprint. Researchers conducted a study between 2023 and 2025 that included 2,227 adults from four sites around the U.S. who took three surveys over the course of a year after having COVID-19. “Respondents in our study shared struggles with stress and social isolation as they live with chronic conditions and the risk of reinfection or newly worsening condition,” the authors wrote.
👩🏽‍🏫 A recent commentary in NEW SOLUTIONS argues that Long COVID is an occupational disease for teachers. The article states this profession has a high risk of Long COVID and COVID-19 and recommends policies including air cleaning and ventilation to benefit both teachers and students, as well as disability supports compliant with the American with Disabilities Act. “Making these proposed investments in future research and practice to promote teachers’ occupational health could help support and replenish the teacher workforce,” the authors concluded.

Yes. And also I think we need to underscore that a lot of women didn’t really have as much freedom of choice to just say no to having children until relatively recently. As women have gotten more rights the number of children they have has generally gone down, and they’ve had them later.
