  • RFK Jr. Set to Launch Disease Registry Tracking Autistic People

  • Sadly, this doesn't surprise me. I expected something like this was coming.

  • Trump may soon offer a motherhood medal, an idea popularized in Nazi Germany

    Jump

  • the Trump administration has shown signs of enthusiasm for a pronatalist agenda. DOGE head Elon Musk, a father of 14, posts regularly on social media about the need for Americans to have more babies; he has also promoted NatalCon on X. Vice President JD Vance has proposed the idea of a weighted voting system, in which the votes cast by parents would be valued more highly than those by the childless. US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy (a father of nine) signed a memo recommending that his department prioritize “communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the national average.”

    Got to provide a continuous supply of children for the labour camps.

  • Consigning Black people to live in filth is incompatible with serving all Americans with “dignity and respect,” unless Black people don’t count as Americans.

    (emphasis mine)

    Isn't that the whole point?

    Phase 2: Asians

  • His attorney said that as of 28 March, the day after his arrest, his F-1 visa was still active. [Harsono’s lawyer] Gad said the government revoked it without any notice to him, and then claimed he had overstayed. The revocation was backdated to 23 March and allegedly based on his 2022 misdemeanor conviction for graffitiing a semi-truck trailer. Gad said that this is not a deportable offense under the Immigration and Nationality Act.

    The completely unethical (and hopefully illegal, but I'm not familiar enough with US immigration law) behaviour by the government here clearly has one purpose: intimidate immigrants to get them to leave voluntarily.

  • Video shows doctor with measles treating kids. RFK Jr later praised him as an ‘extraordinary’ healer

    Jump

  • Dr. Edwards should lose his medical licence and be banned from working with children forever. How sociopathic do you have to be to be working whilst knowing you are carrying one of the most infectious diseases in existence? This is utterly inexcusable, especially since he is supposedly a qualified doctor and should be well aware of the danger he is putting his patients in.

  • Finally a semblance of good news - confirmation of life. I'm not holding my breath that the Trump Administration will do anything to get him back, though.

  • How can I help my fluffy kitty be more comfy

    Jump

  • There are also deshedder brushes/combs that will help - the idea is that it removes all the loose fur, particularly from the undercoat. Depending on the time of year this can get rid of a lot of volume.

    Copied from Reddit because people need to see this: "A deeper dive into the satellite image that looks like blood/bodies at CECOT El Salvadorian prison"

  • They denied to let the visiting senator see him, so my gut feeling is that he's been dead a while now, sadly.

    Litmus test…trying to see where Lemmy community sits politically.

    Jump

  • Firstly, I'm not American, so I have an outsider's view of their impact on the world (albeit still a western one).

    Secondly, I don't think you're going to get a clear yes/no answer to your questions. You've presented at least three different types of situation:

    1. Citizens of a country (Israel) having restricted travel rights in a second country (US) due to objections raised by the second country with regards to how the first country (Israel) is treating a third group (Palestinians).
    2. Wartime actions where a country (US) took action against an aggressor (Japan).
    3. The violation of sovereignty of another nation (Iraq or Afghanistan) by a larger military power (US) due to terrorist activity and/or highly questionable security concerns (e.g. the false claim of WMDs in Iraq).

    Each of these has different complicating factors and a different answer depending on whether you are looking at whether it would be understandable for a country to implement restrictions, or whether it would justifiable (particularly by some moral standard).

    I feel like this is trying to ask if people have a consistent set of ethics or if they preference their own nation higher than others.

  • US senator says El Salvador denied request to meet Kilmar Ábrego García

    Jump

  • Ugh, I'm getting the bad feeling that the poor guy is dead.

    At this point I'd be demanding proof that he's still alive and well.

    Possible kill site within El Salvadorian prison located

  • Agreed.

  • Google created a new AI model for talking to dolphins

    Jump

  • There's already talk-to-your-dog/cat products such as FluentPet. Probably the biggest issue with cats in particular is that their "vocabulary" is quite limited (usually less than a dozen distinct "meows"), but some of the FluentPet users (examples on Youtube such as BilliSpeaks) seem to suggest basic reasoning. A full-blown language is beyond them, but they do seem capable of understanding more concepts than we give them credit for.

  • Google created a new AI model for talking to dolphins

    Jump

  • The ultimate goal is to speak dolphin, if indeed there is such a language. The pursuit of this goal has led WDP to create a massive, meticulously labeled data set, which Google says is perfect for analysis with generative AI.

    So they're aiming for a real-life version of SeaQuest DSV? Considering Season 1 was set in 2018-2019, we're 7 years behind schedule so far...

  • One can only conclude that either this is the latest step in a deliberate effort to sabotage the functioning of the US (and by extension much of the west), or just another monumentally stupid idea brought to life by their limitless incompetence.

  • The student arrested at his naturalization interview knew it was coming

    Jump

  • On Monday, a federal judge in Vermont issued a temporary restraining order prohibiting DHS from deporting Mahdawi for now. The order also forbade ICE from removing him from Vermont.

    Unfortunately this isn't going to stop the Trump administration.

  • Nick Frost disables comments on Harry Potter post after backlash to HBO casting

    Jump

  • Yes, it seems strange to re-make the franchise at this time. All 7 novels were adapted into a highly successful film series, so it's not as though it is like The Chronicles of Narnia where no adaptation has ever completed the series.

  • Here's a picture of Yoshi at 3~4 months old. You can see the absence of thought in his eyes.

  • Maybe he's just transfixed by the camera. Shiny!

  • Trump is not a narcissist.

  • Why not both?
