1. A new journal report in the prestigious Medical Journal of Australia eviscerates the Cass review, saying it is filled with fallacies and launders anti-trans disinformation.

It methodically goes through each problem in the review.

If you know basic kabbalah it's actually not too hard to make a golem out of a labubu. Don't recommend it though. They have a pre-existing body-dharma. As soon as they wake they run straight for the sea. V hard to counter. Lost the first one. No idea what it's doing out there. Moved like lightning.

Anyone know how I could capture 4k videos on my PS5 and just store them? Capture cards seem to need to be connected to a PC but I don't want to stream, but record.

Suki is glad that cooler weather has meant the return of blankets on the papa lap. Snuggly Baby Season is back and she’s the winner.

Suki, a dark tortoiseshell cat, rests on a quilt on her Human Dad’s lap as he rubs her cheek. She looks quite content.

You notice all the directors/etc saying they're fine with AI are saying exactly the same things about it? Sometimes word for word.

Yeah. Those are talking points.

I’m sad that you’re bringing Batober a close, but I’m glad that we’ve had what you’ve given us. I know you’ll still bring us the girls on their adventures, but these little slices will always be a pick me up, and I’m grateful. 😊

When I was a kid, I foolishly thought vampires were real.
Then I grew up, became wiser, and learned the proper term was “venture capitalist”.

Your yearly reminder that our right to speak up and protest, an enduring trust in the courts, and our ability to vote without undue restraints ARE the compromise position to the anthropologically and historically preferred method of eating the oligarchs and their families at the first opportunity.

This round of upgrading my wifi has made me so unbearably dry-mouthed. I know Moderna Mouth is a thing, but gat-damn, it's ridicowockle.

Also, thirsty a lot. But like, not for lots of liquid. Just like, 2-3 sips at a time and then I'm good for a while. Like my body is saying "ah, yes, fluid!"

This brings back memories of my abusive ex rebuilding her character literally *every session* because even though she kept all of her books and sheets in the same bag, which she always had on her, the sheets would just mysteriously disappear. So mystery. Much unexplained.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Scam alert: there's an IngramSpark impersonator at ingramsparkbookpublishers dot com. Part of a wave of publishing/ghostwriting scams from Pakistan that hijack authors looking to self-publish--they often "borrow" well-known publisher names but this one also "borrows" the real IngramSpark's logo

Screenshot of IngramSpark impersonator's contact form, with chat window where scammer sales rep "Travis Clark" claims that "We are Ingram Spark's hands-on services department. You will be able to find our information here: https://www.ingramsparkbookpublishers.com/

Last night my brain kept trying to do very high level maths, which if you know me at all is *not* something I’m good at. But fever-dream me thought I was getting somewhere.

yes this timeline is a rough route. yes there are waves of strife. but behind it all lies the inertia of all things which prompted fish to trot out of the ocean and humans to gather in commune. we are driven to fill the nothing with ourselves, with LOVE. its the unconquerable wind behind our sails

I know I’ve said this a million times if I’ve said it once, but I really love the pure joy that comes off of this pair every time you draw them. When I’m having a really bad day, I often come to your work for some hope and love of life.
