There was an interesting NatGeo article recently about something similar - the links between hypermobility, GI issues, long COVID and long COVID-like illnesses like MECFS, MCAS, etc. The links you provided are really fascinating and suggest maybe even a larger clustering of symptoms unified in a single genetic process.

Literally every news article I have to check whether or not it's the Onion.

Too bad he still doesn't understand the concept behind the word. Hopefully it will bite him in the ass when the price of literally everything goes up.

It likely is hard-coded against that, and it also didn't say that in this case.

Did you read the article with the conversation? The teen said he wanted to "come home" to Daenerys Targaryen and she (the AI) replied "please do, my sweet king."

It's setting an absurdly high bar to assume an AI is going to understand euphemism and subtext as potential indicators of self-harm. That's the job of a psychiatrist, a real-world person that the kid's parents should have taken him to.

A little disappointed with this episode. MC was pretty normal up until now, and then this episode had a full-blown episode of pantsu psychosis.

I did enjoy the scene where they peer out from the bushes at about eight goblins standing around and elf girl responds "looks like about four or five hundred of them." A lot of meme potential in that one.

I'm still on board, but I love trash isekai.

It may be stupid, but it could be a blessing in disguise that a terrible person like MTG is spending her attention on this meaningless nonsense instead of something with actual impact.

It's never going to actually happen, and it's good to keep her distracted.

Can you use a VPN to spoof a different location, or would your payment details prevent that from working?

The high seas are always a last resort if you have no other options.

I have a 13700K that's growing increasingly unstable due to their fuckup on voltage control. Never again. My next rebuild will be AMD.

Now they can return to their peacetime ways of checks notes stealing indigenous land and killing indigenous people with "settlers" instead of "soldiers."

I'd say trying to take a victory lap for a Gaza ceasefire a couple days before leaving office, when he's been the one sending all the $17 billion of bombs and missiles that are being fired at Gazan kids in the first place, takes the top spot.

This is also stupid, ineffective, and incompetent, but with a significantly lower body count.

Yeah, but only if Newton is isekai'd to a lower-mass world with a smaller G constant, so the apple falls more slowly.

I feel like they would need to go much more complex and interesting on the theory of magic in the show in order to support this slow pacing.

It's an interesting premise - how do people originally figure out that magic exists and how they learn to control those powers? We usually see worlds where magic is already established.

But you're spot-on about the pacing. Glacially slow and just not interesting enough in terms of discovering how the magic in this world works.
