So tired it hurts, in too much pain to sleep. He/him/or honestly whatever—I have no strong feelings about my gender and won't take offense.

Denying post‑op trans adults HRT is lethal because it causes dangerous hormone crashes, severe dysphoria, and sharp spikes in suicide risk Our bodies depend on HRT for our physical and mental health, ripping away that care will kill many of us But we knew this was coming And we warned about this

Not really sure where a bunch of liberals got the idea that they can’t win without throwing trans people in the garbage, but they’re stupid and cruel and wrong. If you want a human sacrifice so damned bad put gavin newsom in the wicker man

As a sub over dub sicko I am infuriated with the state of labeling movies both online and at movie theaters. Just clearly state which one is the sub and which is the dub. You don't understand, if I hear an American voice my throat will close up and I will have to be rushed to the hospital

Was gonna go watch the original Ghost in the Shell in the theater tonight, but instead my body has decided that I'd rather spend my evening laid up. Maybe tomorrow, fingers crossed. (Or they would be, if they weren't full of arthritis pain.)

It's been a good month for anime films I never got around to seeing before and Star Trek I've seen a million times but on the big screen. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm is also getting a showing on the 19th, hoping to catch that one too…

The image is a five panel black and white comic. 

Panel 1- A person stands with their hands on their hips in front of a pile of opened boxes filled with items. "Hmmm"

Panel 2- Tiredly they say, "Eh...I can deal with this when I'm not tired..."

Panel 3- We see the pile of boxes again. "Yeah.."

Panel 4- "38 consecutive days of being tired later" We see them again, looking gaunt and exhausted, face in the shadow.

Panel 5- They stand in front of the pile of boxes which have been untouched.

The NPS will launch 850,000 fireworks in the middle of the night. (Last year, they launched 7,000) That will dump perchlorates and heavy metals into the Potomac River and cause the amount of soot and smoke particles to skyrocket (pardon), at great danger to any creature that breathes.

Research confirms that the more skilled professionals like doctors and software engineers rely on AI, the more their skills degrade. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Is AI ruining our skills? Early results are in — and they’re not good
Reliance on artificial-intelligence tools degrades the abilities of physicians and software engineers, studies show.

We're all just rats in a massive living global experiment conducted by Big Tech on our bodyminds, and the politicians and people in power who could actually do something about it are trying desperately to appease Big Tech instead
One man, whose now-ex wife believes that she discovered powerful spiritual entities inside of ChatGPT, described connecting with another man who was also losing his wife to a ChatGPT-generated spiritual world. To their horror, the pair quickly realized that their spouses — and marriages — started unraveling in the wake of the April memory update.

“We actually had a phone call… we just talked and realized the commonalities,” the man told us. When he mentioned the date of April memory update, he explained, the other husband “was like, ‘Oh my God, that aligns perfectly.'”

In conversations with Futurism, people who’ve experienced AI spirals have described their experience of the April memory update as nothing short of magical — the AI, they shared, suddenly felt more like a close friend or confidante that really knew them. Many have described feeling deeply seen, in some cases for the first time in their lives. In short, the hyper-personalization that memory offered translated into something powerful: intimacy. And looking back on their experiences, some of those who have recovered from their ChatGPT-linked crises feel as though that intimacy had a “manipulative” effect.
