RFJ Jr's voice is a result of his disability which is a no go zone for mocking him.

That he'd likely be put on the kill list with the rest of us who are disabled is plenty of material for anyone who indulges in gallows humor.

This DS9 illustration from a few years ago is probably still my favourite Star Trek fan art creation.

An illustration of Terok Nor, aka Deep Space Nine, in the style of the Cardassian computer interfaces used on the show.

The only feature you can remove from social media that would legitimately do a lot to prevent people from going insane is removing the ability to log in and post

everyone on here seems to think that there's just one feature you can add or remove from social media to make people not go insane on here. this belief, i think, is itself a form of madness

Pain, a famously difficult thing to rate and measure, being rated and measured by machines.

I wish I was able to muster up the indignant outrage this deserves but I'm tired. I'm so, so, *so* tired. I live in pain every single day and I doubt myself when I try to figure out FOR MYSELF how bad it is.

Facial expressions common to all humans! 🙃

PainChek is one of these behavioral models, and it acts like a camera‑based thermometer, but for pain: A care worker opens the app and holds a phone 30 centimeters from a person’s face. For three seconds, a neural network looks for nine particular microscopic movements—upper‑lip raise, brow pinch, cheek tension, and so on—that research has linked most strongly to pain. Then the screen flashes a score of 0 to 42. “There’s a catalogue of ‘action‑unit codes’—facial expressions common to all humans. Nine of those are associated with pain,” explains Kreshnik Hoti, a senior research scientist with PainChek and a co-inventor of the device. This system is built directly on the foundation of FACS. After the scan, the app walks the user through a yes‑or‑no checklist of other signs, like groaning, “guarding,” and sleep disruption, and stores the result on a cloud dashboard that can show trends.

You can't quantify pain this way. I live with chronic pain - my daily is a 4, and that 4 is most people 6 or 7. I don't express any of thr signs listen, even on my worst days. Even when I went to the ER a few years ago.

grateful portland has risen to the challenge so far in peacefully protesting the ICE facility and that nationally we're all cheering on the frogs but I think it's important to make sure everyone is aware that the ICE goons aren't exactly being peaceful in return
