I reanalyzed the CDC data behind the LGB “free fall” headline. It rests on a change in bisexual identification among one grade, in one wave, of one survey. Gay or lesbian identification did not change significantly. Calling it a "free fall" is sensational and just gives bad actors talking points.

Six small line charts showing the percent of U.S. high school students choosing each sexual identity response option by grade (9th to 12th), 2015 to 2025, with 95% confidence intervals. Heterosexual falls from about 85 to 90 percent before 2021 to about 73 percent in 2021 and 2023, then rises to about 78 to 80 percent in 2025. Gay or lesbian stays between about 2 and 5 percent throughout. Bisexual rises to about 12 percent in 2021 in every grade, then among 9th graders falls to about 7 percent in 2025, its 2019 level, while other grades stay near 10 percent. “Some other way,” added in 2021, falls from about 4 percent to about 2.5 percent. “Not sure” stays near 3 to 5 percent. A dotted line marks 2021, when CDC changed the response options.

I said this in a thread last night and in a thousand threads before it, but you really are doing the work of those who would destroy democracy and the rule of law when you are a doomer. You can be aware of — and vigorously oppose — the lawlessness of this administration without insisting on doom.

GOOD NEWS! Phase I clinical trial results show a first-of-its-kind personalized vaccine designed to treat glioblastoma, a deadly and aggressive form of brain cancer, is safe AND elicits robust and broad immune responses that appears to INCREASE recurrence-free survival in patients after surgery.

It's that time of year: lots of people will be sick, and many won't know what sickness it is. It's a good idea to get tested, but even if you don't know what it is, *please* stay home as much as possible, get plenty of rest to help yourself recover, and wear masks if you have to go out while sick!

and not so much from general sci-fi movies (unless they’re adapted from hard sci-fi stories themselves like Weir’s books!)

I feel like I only see that level of rigor and passion from sci-authors / artists (Runaway to the Stars comes to mind as a similar ‘hard sci-fi’ story akin to Weir’s worldbuilding)

Long Covid Superheroes showcases the bravery of asking for help, resting, and being compassionate with yourself and others. Read more from @heatherhogan.bsky.social: thesicktimes.org/2026/10/05/k...

The cover of Long COVID Superheroes features illustrated kids in pajama-capes holding hands and drifting through the air. The text reads “The Sick Times. Kids with Long COVID co-created their own superhero comic book. By Heather Hogan. Arts & Culture.”

An illustration of Joy Explorer, a superhero with Long COVID using a wheelchair. The text reads "Unlike Marvel-style superheroes who possess superhuman strength, invincibility, and rugged individualism, these superheroes showcase bravery by asking for help, resting, and being compassionate with themselves and others. For example, Joy Explorer, created by Sophia, uses her Joy Vision Goggles to locate small joys that keep her going. Nebuli, created by Lucy, generates pocket universes to escape the boredom of being housebound."

Reminder: for the fourth year in a row in 2027, I’ll be introducing the budget amendment to end the data center sales tax exemption, which the Senate of Virginia adopted earlier this year though we couldn’t get it through conference. We need a moratorium on data centers, not tax giveaways to them.

It has been a lot of fun developing my “cave art” style. In the context of my story, the most common cave art does not depict eyes, as it is considered a taboo to include them. It is thought to bind the soul of the creature depicted and thus, cause their spirit to be angry.

This is a good list. The #1 biggest problem in Title IX is that there is no oversight and massive conflicts of interest. Schools can (and do) prioritize the institution over survivors, even when it requires breaking the law. Independent investigations would change that.
