When diet culture meets hormonal changes and ageism, it creates conditions for "menorexia" — but it often looks like wellness trends, making it easy to miss.

Emily Blunt and Sag-Aftra join film industry condemnation of ‘AI actor’ Tilly Norwood
US actors’ union joins stars in opposition to Norwood, which it says was created ‘using stolen performances’ The controversy around the “AI actor” Tilly Norwood continues to grow, after the actors’ union Sag-Aftra condemned the development and said Norwood’s creators were “using stolen performances”. Sag-Aftra released a statement after the AI “talent studio” Xicoia unveiled its creation at the Zurich film festival, prompting an immediate backlash from actors including Melissa Barrera, Mara Wilson and Ralph Ineson. Sag-Aftra said it believed creativity was, “and should remain, human-centred. The union is opposed to the replacement of human performers by synthetics.” Continue reading...

It is (almost) funny to me how, for decades, we've seen the decline of appreciation and funding for liberal arts (and subsequently enrollments), and for 10 to 15 years, we've also seen the rise of (technocratic) authoritarianism, but people won't connect the dots. www.startribune.com/liberal-arts...
Liberal arts are on a long decline. Some Minnesota schools are finding new ways to boost them.
English majors in Minnesota have declined by 44% while health professions have increased sevenfold, for instance. What’s the future for the liberal arts?
