Impossible to even describe how many versions of this he could do. He could be the patron saint of the entire world. Instead, they'll have to bury him in a secure location because of how many people will try to piss on his grave.
The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.

The season right at the first episode feels like it was being written by a wholly different team. Unsure on if that’s the case or not, but all the show’s bite completely deteriorates.
#92 - Danny Phantom (S3) (2007) [FINALE]
A mess of a season with maybe 2-3 solid episodes and a smattering of okay ones at best. The show’s premise fully falls apart as it nosedives to a tonally mismatched, nonsensical finale that it did not earn. Main upside is short moments of cool animation.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.

Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.
Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.

Upside about Adderall I’ve noticed: I can still do a whole-ass ‘tism infodump on something, but it is MUCH easier to remember what my original point was and to wrap back around to it instead of losing myself in the ramble

Against all the bad news today, here’s some trans joy for you:
A lot of my imposter syndrome in regards to transitioning has been melting away recently as my chest becomes more visible in daily t-shirts
Walking around with the clear shape of small boobs has made me feel REALLY good about myself!
