would you like to meet our new cat? her name is All The Fur I Brushed Off Madeleine Over The Summer

A pile of cat fur arranged into a loosely cat-shaped mound; two ears have been pinched into shape, and two googly eyes have been attached in the place where the eyes would be. It is sitting against a green wall, and it is very wrong to the eye.

Correction: The previous image associated with this story showed a forest most consistent with forests during the Carboniferous and Permian periods, not the Jurassic period. The story has been updated.

When I worked at Microsoft support my favorite repeat crank customer was a woman who’d insist you refer to her in the 3rd person as “The Commander”. & one time her son came on the phone & the SE asked if his mother was going to do something & his response was “my mother? Do you mean THE COMMANDER?”

Scientists just found sabertooth cats from the La Brea Tar Pits suffered an abnormally high rate of rare spinal diseases. The incest-driven disorders likely hampered mobility, compelling the cats toward weakened animals entrapped in tar. #Paleontology #Smilodon @tarpits.org New at @science.org 🧪

"fun" fact: moot had deleted /pol/ (the racist politics board) prior to meeting epstein, and apparently epstein convinced him to re-open it, and it rapidly turned into a massive alt-right radicalization center. you know who convinced moot to delete /pol/ in the first place? ME!

It's incredible that the entire panic over "ultra-processed foods" is based on the results of just *five* RCTs, four of which were less than three weeks long. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Randomized controlled trials are the gold standard for establishing cause-and-effect relationships and attributing health outcomes to a specific intervention rather than other factors. Five such trials have been conducted in the USA, UK, Denmark, and Japan to investigate the effect of UPFs on obesity and related outcomes (5–9). The results have been highly publicized and widely communicated, often in ways that suggest that ultraprocessing is inherently harmful to health (1, 2). The design of these clinical trials, however, makes it very difficult to attribute the unfavorable effects of UPF-rich diets to ultraprocessing per se. Instead, these effects are highly likely to be due to differences in traditional nutritional properties that frequently—but not uniformly—co-occur in UPFs (see the figure).

All of these trials used a crossover design, in which the same participants consumed UPF-rich and non-UPF diets in a random order. All foods and drinks that participants consumed were provided in either inpatient (involving overnight stays at a hospital, clinic, or research center) (5, 6) or outpatient (7, 8) settings, or through a combination of supervised and unsupervised eating (9). This “feeding” trial design prevents confounding from varying diet adherence that occurs in “diet advice” studies. In three trials, participants consumed the diets at will until comfortably full (ad libitum) (5–7), whereas in two trials they received a fixed amount of calories (8, 9). The duration of each diet arm of the study was 1 to 3 weeks in four trials (5, 6, 8, 9), with the longest lasting 8 weeks (7).

The gene therapy Zolgensma helped children born with a fatal disease grow up to run and play. But the cost was stunning: $2M per dose. While taxpayers and charities funded the drug’s early development, execs, venture-capital backers and a pharma giant have reaped the profits. (Pub. Feb. 2025)
