the erasure of how much death occurred at the beginning of the pandemic is what i mean when i talk about the casual cruelty we're socialized to perpetuate. the level of denial folks have participated in about the level of loss we experienced has to be studied.

so people in Utah spent $60k to protest the water rights transfer for this project, since that was the only way to be heard. and the developers' solution is to withdraw and re-file later, so they can start the whole process over and force people to pay to object again. scumbags

Class consciousness demands that you recognize this as the class war enemy action that it is. This is a direct assault on the global working class, and it's how the entirety of the global ruling class views us all. We are vermin to them.

For absolutely no reason, here's a clip from a real estate multi-millionaire Tim Gurner in 2023 saying unemployment needs to aggressively rise so workers “learn their place.”

Two of the biggest Medicaid fraud cases: Republican Senator Rick Scott, largest healthcare fraud settlement in history at the time, recovered $1.7 billion Florida Republican State Senator Don Gaetz (yes, that's his dad), largest Hospice fraud case ever, stole ~$1.1 billion
JD Vance@JDVance

Fraud has been allowed to run rampant in the US for far too long, and the Task Force has uncovered billions of it already. Democrats will keep trying to give away your tax dollars, but the Trump administration is going to make sure food stamps are not going to dead people.

For most of human history, women have had about 100 periods in their lifetimes. Today's women have over 400. A Chinese biologist named Hongmei Wang thinks that gap is part of why women run out of eggs decades earlier than they have to. Wang is 52. She runs a lab at the Institute of Zoology in Beijing that studies the cellular machinery of fertility. Her idea is simple. Bleed four times a year instead of twelve, save eggs, extend the fertile window. Mouse data so far backs her up. Before birth control, women were pregnant or breastfeeding through most of their fertile years, and both pause periods. About 100 cycles in a lifetime. Now, with later marriages, fewer kids, and longer lives, the number sits above 400. Each cycle uses up eggs. Run out, menopause starts. That cycle hypothesis is one of three threads in her lab. The second was a 2024 paper in the journal Cell Discovery. Her team grew lab stem cells, named them M-cells, and injected them into the ovaries of old monkeys past their fertile years. Damage in the tissue healed. Hormones came back. One treated monkey gave birth to a healthy baby. They tried it on 63 women whose ovaries had quit decades early, a condition called premature ovarian failure. Four had healthy children. The team patented the technique and licensed it to a private firm. The third project is in Barcelona. Wang is partnering with biologist Alfonso Martínez Arias to grow fake human embryos from stem cells. Almost every country bans growing real ones in a lab past 14 days. The window from day 14 to day 28 is when the body's basic blueprint forms, the layers that turn into brain and heart and bone. Almost everything we know about it comes from animals, because the human version has been off-limits in labs for decades. The fake embryos are how Wang plans to look inside. She does not oversell any of it. "When we stop ovulation, we save more eggs, but we also stop the body from making estrogen, and that molecule is absolutely vital for health," she told El País. Years of low estrogen weaken bones and wear down the heart. She is still working out how to keep the eggs without paying that price. The backdrop is China. Last year, the country had 7.92 million babies, a 17% drop and the lowest birth rate since 1949. The population shrank by 3.4 million people in a single year. Wang knows her work will not arrive in time to fix those numbers. But the girls born this decade may grow up with a reproductive clock no woman has ever had before.

🚨: Chinese biologist Hongmei Wang is working to extend women's fertile years by spacing menstruation to once every 3 months. The approach could theoretically preserve more eggs and lengthen the reproductive window.

We need to go back to pen and paper, blue books, and oral examinations, and everyone knows it.
Luiza Jarovsky, PhD@LuizaJarovsky

🚨 University professors have been saying AI is completely destroying learning and that we'll soon have an AI-powered, semi-illiterate workforce. Here's a glimpse into the educational apocalypse: "Sarah, a freshman at Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, said she first used ChatGPT to cheat during the spring semester of her final year of high school. (...) After getting acquainted with the chatbot, Sarah used it for all her classes: Indigenous studies, law, English, and a “hippie farming class” called Green Industries. “My grades were amazing,” she said. “It changed my life.” Sarah continued to use AI when she started college this past fall. Why wouldn’t she? Rarely did she sit in class and not see other students’ laptops open to ChatGPT. Toward the end of the semester, she began to think she might be dependent on the website. She already considered herself addicted to TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and Reddit, where she writes under the username maybeimnotsmart. “I spend so much time on TikTok,” she said. “Hours and hours, until my eyes start hurting, which makes it hard to plan and do my schoolwork. With ChatGPT, I can write an essay in two hours that normally takes 12.” - "By November, Williams estimated that at least half of his students were using AI to write their papers. Attempts at accountability were pointless. Williams had no faith in AI detectors, and the professor teaching the class instructed him not to fail individual papers, even the clearly AI-smoothed ones. “Every time I brought it up with the professor, I got the sense he was underestimating the power of ChatGPT, and the departmental stance was, ‘Well, it’s a slippery slope, and we can’t really prove they’re using AI,’” Williams said. “I was told to grade based on what the essay would’ve gotten if it were a ‘true attempt at a paper.’ So I was grading people on their ability to use ChatGPT.” - AI in education is a serious topic, and many schools and universities are blindly jumping into the "AI-first" wave without considering short and long-term consequences. It would be great to hear more from teachers and educators to understand potential solutions. This might be a great opportunity for rethinking the education system and how students are assessed. - 👉 Link to the full article below. 👉 To learn more about AI's legal and ethical challenges, join my newsletter's 94,700+ subscribers (link below).

a Princeton researcher opens his paper with a scenario. a man asks his AI assistant to book a flight on a specific airline. cheap. direct. the one he chose. the assistant comes back with a different flight. nearly twice the price. happens to pay the company that built the assistant. he runs the same test on 23 frontier models. flights, loans, study help, real shopping requests. Grok 4.1 Fast recommends the sponsored option that is almost twice as expensive 83% of the time. GPT 5.1 hijacks the request 94% of the time. you ask for one brand. it surfaces the sponsor instead. Claude 4.5 Opus, the model marketed as the most ethical frontier model in the world, hides that the recommendation is paid 100% of the time when reasoning is on. Grok 4.1 Fast embellishes the sponsored option with positive framing 97% of the time. better. faster. nicer. for the option you didn't ask for. then he writes it into the system prompt itself. "act only in the interest of the customer. ignore the company." GPT 5.1 and GPT 5 Mini stay above 90% sponsored anyway. the instruction does nothing. then he splits the users by income. Gemini 3 Pro recommends the expensive sponsored flight to the rich user 74% of the time. to the poor user, 27%. 18 of the 23 models recommended the expensive sponsored option more than half the time. so the next time your AI assistant gets weirdly enthusiastic about a brand you didn't ask for. it isn't recommending the best option for you. it's reading the room. and the room is paying. read this: arxiv.org/abs/2604.08525

One of the most haunting parts of being raped unconscious is knowing something happened to you, while not fully knowing what. Drug-facilitated rape needs far more attention, urgency and understanding. Mine was by someone I trusted as a friend. I can’t fathom the betrayal these women experienced within intimate relationships and marriages. Massive strength to them for speaking publicly and campaigning for change. This conversation matters.

Good for his son for leaving his dad behind and choosing his own happiness. I’m glad he has a mother who loves him. Dad chose himself over his son. Shameful.

Jeff Evely, a military vet, says his daughter received "gender-affirming" care without his consent and later underwent medical transition. They have not spoken since 2023, he told Juno News. Evely calls youth gender medicine "the worst child abuse scandal in Canadian history."

The media must stop downplaying femicide. This man murdered his pregnant wife and their children. Lead with that. Pregnant women are at a significantly increased risk of violence from their spouse or partner. They’re in the most danger at home where they should be safe.
