‘We were treated like enemies of society’: Japan’s dangerous hardcore punk scene looks back to its roots
The pressure to conform in Japanese society made being a punk risky – even before you factor in the flamethrowers. As a rash of reissues arrives, 80s stalwarts Lip Cream, Death Side and the Nurse recall the thrills and threats

What does it mean when you have dreams that are satirical of your old nightmares but in surround sound with full on musical form?
Three whole fully produced songs with dance. I can kinda remember two with lyric references and another with vibes.

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)—aka the “mono” virus—can also trigger Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (MECFS) and is a risk factor for Multiple Sclerosis.

COVID-19 infection is one of the things that can trigger the reactivation of EBV (others include mold or mycotoxin exposure).
🦠NEW: Scientists just confirmed that the “Mono” virus can trigger and sustain lupus — something researchers had suspected for decades, but only based on anecdotal evidence.

My story for @sciam.bsky.social 🧪
The Virus That Causes Mono May Also Cause Lupus
Early findings indicate that Epstein-Barr Virus may also cause the autoimmune disease lupus
