Doctors fear young at risk from β€˜black-market trans hormones’ Medics call for an urgent investigation into trans community groups offering support on accessing supplies for self-medication

Well, yes, trans people are getting drugs; yes, from entirely unregulated sources; yes, without counselling; yes, without blood tests; yes, they are self-administering; yes, without clinical oversight; yes, risking long term harm; yes, it is highly suboptimal.

What did you think would happen?

so cool that for about 10 seconds We Love Colors marketed to cosplayers and now they're AI generating cosplay slop to use in marketing. Super. Awesome. So cool. I fucking hate this shit.

I know I'm a snob, but someone posted on a local buy nothing group that they had a set of polyester sheets and...

I was surprised to see that our town actually encourages 'nontraditional' lawns. Alas, the folks who own homes skew older and therefore carry the American lawn like an albatross of respectability.

That said, the lawn culture in our patch of suburban Hartford County is much more easy going than it was in Florida.

We have other projects to get to first, but my partner and I can't wait to nuke our suburban lawn for native meadow and more vegetable plots. A lot of our neighbors are middle aged or elderly, but I think a few of the younger ones could be convinced...

There were def people in Washington who advised Trump not to do this, basically saying, "hes 90, hes had cancer twice, hes going to die soon anyway. Dont make him a martyr for the cause". He didnt listen.

Henrietta Lacks is the reason we dont get polio anymore.

Henrietta Lacks is the reason in-vitro works

Henrietta Lacks is the reason there's an HPV vaccine, gene mapping, we know how cancer cells divide, AIDs is no longer a death sentence.

Henrietta Lacks cells were stolen from her

The reason The Terror is such a remarkable piece of not just television but also of both storytelling and art is because it was sensitively yet radically adapted by David Kajganich, who treated it (and still treats it) as a real labour of love.

A photo of a trio of my Peep Rex figures. They are fluffy TRex chicks colored in blue, pink, and yellow. They sit on a wooden floor with a backdrop of Easter grass and pastel eggs.

Peep Rex - fluffy little friends for Easter 🐣 These chicks will sneak into candy baskets to steal treats. They have a sugary coating on their backs to fool the human eye. Preorder one now for a limited time! I will also have some stock at LVFC in April.

It's also economics. When dark hair gets praised, it's not mousey gray-brown, it's not that sooty bistre natural black, it's not jet black- it's a saturated chocolate espresso color that doesn't really exist in nature. Similar to the idealized blonde and red. You still have to work for it.
