‘Incredible’: bleached corals thrive within days when touching healthy neighbour
A coral fragment can form a tissue bridge with a dying counterpart — and provide it with crucial microalgae.

This is one of the many reasons why it should be much harder (read effectively impossible) for individuals or organizations to get this big and powerful. It breaks society. We've always known this. We refuse to elect the people who actually wanna stop it.

hey ben. the guy in the picture here is an actual person, my friend’s dad, and a spiritual leader of Lakota people, Chief Arvol Looking Horse. not only does he support Indigenous People’s Day, he’s the founder of World Peace and Prayer Day. feels weird to use his image and not his name.

I suspect demographics may play a role. My corner of SFF fandom, which identifies primarily as SFF readers, is also mostly women, majority queer, and reads across genres, from litfic to romance, in line with @antonhur.com's experience. But we're not the typical image of SFF fan.

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

The theory is that "embodiment" is a key to sentience. You could think of this as "sensation" but obviously there's a lot more to it than that. Most of what we know about the world is "embodied" in the nervous system from the moment of birth onward, and that serves as a ground for individuation.

I can’t emphasize this enough — “AI” wasn’t born corrupt and toxic. For ~75 years, it was mathematicians and scientists doing interesting, thoughtful work and trying to solve problems, making only the usual human mistakes. What “AI” did to machine learning is as tragic as what it did to artists.

One aspect of it that may not be apparent is how much of the damage was structural, having to abruptly shut down programs on short notice. It takes time to rebuild those even if the money returns at 100% (which it hasn't yet).

Life in an ethnostate. This is normal in India, and now it's normal in my home state, which was one of the few places in India where it wasn't normal (before the BJP captured it). Lots and lots of problems in Bengal, but weekly lynchings of Muslims and attacks on churches wasn't among them.

This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.
