A recent study found that many women treated for recurrent UTIs didn't have UTIs at all. Instead, their symptoms were caused by hormonally driven inflammation and pelvic floor dysfunction. n.pr/4ciNsyT

I now fervently believe this. Relatedly, I think celebrating good news and embracing joy are equally radical. You have to remember what you’re fighting for. We cannot sustainably organize around sorrow.

I feel like this auction deserves so much love, but a lot of people who NEED this auction don't understand that they need it, or know what to ask to use it. Do we have science people who can spin out use cases for a fiction author?

In case you, too, needed this today:

Op is novelconcepts: Hey, man, c'mere. Listen. Get in real close, this is important.
You're gonna make stuff again. You're gonna make stuff you're proud of. You're gonna make stuff you're excited to share. You're going to feel that overwhelming drive to create, not just the frantic / want to want to you're stuck in now. You're going to have awesome ideas, and you're going to make them into reality. You're going to create again.
You're still an artist. You're still a writer. You're still home to the same passion you had before. You'll find it again. It's not gone. It's just resting. Let it rest. You're going to make stuff again. I promise.

I also had these before, that have a wire and in ear. I understand the worry of them falling off. They don't have noise cancelling, but because it's in ear, it might help? s.lazada.com.ph/s.ZglbKp?c=v

It still has to be said: before posting an opinion, maybe make sure you are well-informed about a subject first. For example, before saying "Filipinos do not support local literature/comics", ask yourself first do YOU read current works by local authors, yourself?

Wide authors, if you haven't logged into Google Play recently, do so ASAP. Like Amazon KDP and Kobo, they are also jamming in a stupid gen AI recaps "feature" on all books effective 6 July 2026. Unlike the other two, at least we can opt out of this shit. h/t @ajcalvin.bsky.social for the heads up

Screenshot from the Google Play Partner Center home page. Text reads "Book insights: The Book insights feature is rolling out to users now. No action is needed in your account; your books will be added automatically on July 6, 2026. You can opt out at any time. Learn more."

Just need everyone to know that the Belgium men's soccer team has new jerseys based on the art of Rene Magritte and this is the official photo shoot

Soccer player wearing fedora and with a green apple floating in front of his face, mimicking the Magritte painting "The Son of Man." The soccer player is wearing a jersey with a pattern of pink and blue stripes with half-visible spheres.

Since today is a day about death and remembrance, my best life advice related to death: go to the funeral. You’re thinking that you don’t know the family well enough, you’re not that close, you’ll be in the way. You won’t. Go to the funeral.
