In 1935, two American doctors examined seven women's ovaries and saw small lumps. They called them cysts and named the disease after them. They were wrong. It took 91 years to fix. What we called PCOS is now Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS), announced today in The Lancet by an international panel of doctors and patients. The renaming followed more than a decade of consensus work and 22,000 patient and clinician survey responses. The lumps Stein and Leventhal saw were never cysts. Modern imaging shows they were follicles, the tiny sacs inside the ovary that grow and release an egg each month, frozen partway through by a hormonal imbalance. PMOS is a multi-system disorder centered in the endocrine system, the body's network of glands that produces hormones like insulin (controls blood sugar), cortisol (the stress hormone), and thyroid hormones (set the body's metabolism). The ovary trouble flows downstream from there. The naming choice is not academic. When doctors hear "ovary" in a diagnosis, they look at the ovary. "Metabolic" and "endocrine" send them to the whole body. PMOS affects roughly 1 in 8 women worldwide, more than 170 million people. The WHO estimates 70% have never been diagnosed. Among those who do, 1 in 3 wait more than 2 years, and nearly half see 3 or more doctors first. The CDC reports more than half of women with PMOS develop type 2 diabetes by age 40, a risk 5 to 10 times higher than women without the condition. Around 37% have clinically significant depression, compared with 14% in women without it. Anxiety runs at 42% versus 8.5%. A label born from a 1935 look at seven ovaries is finally going away. The new diagnostic guidelines roll out fully in 2028. By then, a woman walking into a clinic with these symptoms should hear questions about her blood sugar and her mood alongside her cycle. Those are the parts of the disease the old name hid for 91 years.

PCOS is being renamed to PMOS. (Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome) The change comes from experts that say the old name was misleading, stating that it inaccurately suggested ovarian cysts as a defining feature.

Variety asks Melissa Barrera if she thinks the people that returned for ‘Scream 7’ are “scabby” and “crossing the picket line”: “Oh, one hundred percent. I think they all are. And they have to live with that. The only way they were able to make that movie after what happened was to nostalgia-bait as much as possible.” (variety.com/2026/theater/a…)

Friendly reminder: Christopher Nolan's costume designer contacted the renowned Greek metal artist Demetrios Katsikis, known as “the modern Hephaestus”, who creates the historically accurate armor often seen online. Unfortunately, according to Demetrios, it didn't work out.

Christopher Nolan chose Emily Wilson's 2017 translation of Homer's Odyssey as the sole source for his upcoming film, a version critics called radical for stripping away traditional embellishments in favor of modern language, including words like "daddy," "playtime is over," "canapés," "pep talk," and "tote bag." Wilson told The New Yorker in 2023 that Homer "didn't sound archaic to the Greeks." Is Nolan's Odyssey already doomed by its source material, or is a modern translation exactly what the story needs on the big screen?

an american talking about ancient classical mythology: imagine the marvel cinematic universe…
Variety@Variety

Christopher Nolan says #TheOdyssey has the "original superheroes": "They are the original superheroes. Even comic book culture, whether you're talking about Marvel or DC or all the rest, a lot of it comes directly from the Homeric Epics. The thing about Homer is, nobody knows if that was a person. Homer in a way is the George Lucas, maybe, of his time… Homer is the Marvel of its day, that's the thing. It's very directly this desire for us to feel or believe Gods could walk amongst us, and I think the modern comic book is kind of our expression of that." variety.com/2026/film/news…

Another of the many misunderstandings of this movie, Cyclops are not supposed to be monster, they represent uncivilized people. You don't reason with a monster and you don't expect a monster to follow sacred hospitality customs. But it's ok, who cares, it's a fake story, it's just like Marvel according to some people
