Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Poor Keiko. Being terrorized by gunpoint by your demonically-possessed husband has to be traumatic. I hope she was able to work it out... in... therapy...

Oh.

Erm.

I hope the Enterprise has a second therapist.

Troi, Data, and O'Brien have come down with a case of demonic possession. (FUN TRIVIA FACT: the working title for this ep was "Feeling Poorly.") The trio has burst into Ten Forward with phasers, threatening everyone there.

A possessed Miles threatening Keiko and baby Molly with a phaser.

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

No one who ever worked for ICE should feel comfortable in polite society ever again.

They should live fearing that their friends and neighbors will find out what they did and shun them.

That their children will learn what they were and never speak to them again.

Watched Genesis II, which I can best describe as what happens when you give Gene Roddenberry way more money and way less supervision.

2 notes: they specifically show Mariette Hartley with two navels, then later her costume moves and you see her actual one; and a horse definitely bit somebody.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

more and more convinced of the need for a sort of plastic surgery norm around Gen AI: it’s fine in of itself to use, any use of it where it’s clear to a layman that you used it should face severe ostracism. If you can’t get away with it without me knowing, you aren’t responsible enough to use it

A student on TikTok has been documenting her journey with a professor who “wrote” the anatomy textbook and it’s all a bunch of AI hallucinations.

She’s saying that, understandably, the students are doing super poorly!

Behold what we’re teaching the healthcare professionals of tomorrow:

A diagram of the bones and (some) deep muscles of the hand and forearm. AI says that we only have four digits. It’s also identified a tendon as the median nerve, another tendon as the ulnar nerve, among other issues.

An AI generated diagram of the muscles of the neck. It hallucinated the “ennocleidomasid” muscle, and the “anterior scalpalin muscle”.

An AI generated diagram of the muscles of the lateral thigh. It says that the gluteus Maximus (the big juicy butt muscle) is on the anterior side. It also points to the quadriceps muscle and says “attattment”. It also says that the same structure is the tibia AND the deep fascia of the leg.

An AI generated diagram of the bones of the hand and forearm. This time AI says we have 6 digits. It also says that the radius is the ulnar artery. Among other many issues.
