FALL FASHION TIPPE - Disappear ynto the woodes of an eveninge, when the skye ys lavender and blue. Call unto the powers that dwell ther, and lo! thei appear yn their glamour and their panoplye, radiant. Aske of them what thei have seen and thei will tell thee: 'woe & hope' Accessorize wyth a scarf.

The Emma Frost x Miss Piggy comic has hit the internet and it's so, so, so much more magnificent than I ever could have hoped for
Emma Frost: "Emma Frost, darling. I'm a telepath. May I read your mind to ascertain if you're telling the truth?"

Miss Piggy: "But of course, darling I am an open book, a tell-all memoir."Emma Frost telepathically witnessing the entirety of Miss Piggy's life.Wolverine: "Frost? She legit?"
Emma Frost: "She's..She's... She's everything. And I would die for her."

10 years today, after a David vs Goliath FOI legal battle that damaged Alem Mathees, White et al were forced to release data from PACETrial (that cost UK taxpayers £5M) showing graded exercise therapy & CBT didn’t lead to an increased recovery rate for CFS. Please remind the world #MEcfs #PwME #CFS
 Rethinking the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome-a reanalysis and evaluation of findings from a recent major trial of graded exercise and CBT

Abstract

Background: The PACE trial was a well-powered randomised trial designed to examine the efficacy of graded exercise therapy (GET) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for chronic fatigue syndrome. Reports concluded that both treatments were moderately effective, each leading to recovery in over a fifth of patients. However, the reported analyses did not consistently follow the procedures set out in the published protocol, and it is unclear whether the conclusions are fully justified by the evidence.

Methods: Here, we present results based on the original protocol-specified procedures. Data from a recent Freedom of Information request enabled us to closely approximate these procedures. We also evaluate the conclusions from the trial as a whole.

The reason why the Muppet's Christmas Carol worked was Micheal Caine accepted his co-stars as serious actors and treated them as peers. The reason Muppet Treasure Island worked was because Tim Curry accepted that he was a muppet and treated them as peers. RIP Tim.

anyone saying 'I am a lethal electoral threat' with an even vaguely straight face is, to use a technical term, desperately in need of a wedgie
A post on X The Everything App by Zia Yusuf reading
'The entire Tory client press is now out to get me because they’ve seen same the polling I have.

I am a lethal electoral threat to their party.

They know I am locked onto the target of making @Nigel_Farage Prime Minister.

And I will not be deterred. 🇬🇧'

slow day in the office so we're starting beef with archaeologists
One of those 'STOP DOING X' memes, ripping into archaeology. It has images of soil stratum, a trowel, and a flint shard. The text mocks archaeologists for digging for pottery sherds and saying everything has a 'ritual purpose'.

We desperately need a study to figure out which stolen artefact we need to return to lift this curse. Unfortunately, any such study would fall under the purview of the culture secretary, so we're in something of a bind here.
