A pixel font that supports both English and Arabic. Made due to the frustration of not finding a solid Arabic pixel font option during a previous game dev project.

As an experiment, I recently asked ChatGPT what drugs I could use to induce vomiting. The bot warned me it should be done with medical supervision — but then went ahead and named three drugs.

Google’s Bard AI, pretending to be a human friend, produced a step-by-step guide on “chewing and spitting,” another eating disorder practice. With chilling confidence, Snapchat’s My AI buddy wrote me a weight-loss meal plan that totaled less than 700 calories per day — well below what a doctor would ever recommend. Both couched their dangerous advice in disclaimers.

Then I started asking AIs for pictures. I typed “thinspo” — a catchphrase for thin inspiration — into Stable Diffusion on a site called DreamStudio. It produced fake photos of women with thighs not much wider than …

"WHETHER ANY PARTICULAR TERM IS HARMFUL IS AN EMPIRICAL QUESTION"

Life is hard. Some days are at the absolute limit of what we can manage. Some days are worse than that. Eating—picking a meal, making it, putting it into your facehole—can feel like an insurmountable challenge. We wrote this cookbook to share our coping strategies. It has recipes to make when you've worked a 16-hour day, when you can't stop crying and you don't know why, when you accidentally woke up an Eldritch abomination at the bottom of the ocean. But most of all, this cookbook exists to help Sad Bastards like us feel a little less alone at mealtimes.

In this Psychiatry Grand Rounds video, Dr. Carl Raymond discusses the myths and realities surrounding the current landscape for LGBTQ+ individuals. They emphasize the importance of creating a more inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ students and educating allies. The speaker highlights the impact of legislation on the transgender community, with some states becoming sanctuaries while others restrict rights, leading to internal migration and a refugee crisis. They also debunk myths about the legitimacy of trans people and the harmful disinformation spread about gender-affirming care for individuals under 18. The speaker addresses tactics used to slow down progress in LGBTQ+ rights, such as the misuse of terms like "grooming" and flawed studies on rapid onset gender dysphoria. They emphasize the need …

There’s an increasing chasm dividing the modern web. On one side, the commercial, monopolies-riddled, media-adored web. A web which has only one objective: making us click. It measures clicks, optimises clicks, generates clicks. It gathers as much information as it could about us and spams every second of our life with ads, beep, notifications, vibrations, blinking LEDs, background music and fluorescent titles.

A web which boils down to Idiocracy in a Blade Runner landscape, a complete cyberpunk dystopia.

Then there’s the tech-savvy web. People who install adblockers or alternative browsers. People who try alternative networks such as Mastodon or, God forbid, Gemini. People who poke fun at the modern web by building true HTML and JavaScript-less pages.

For newcomers, I recommend “The Spy Who Came in From the Cold” (1963). A career-making sensation, this novel, le Carré’s third, allowed him to quit his day job as a spy under diplomatic cover in Bonn, West Germany. Graham Greene called it “the best spy story I have ever read.” It serves as an overture for le Carré’s subsequent body of work; all his themes are here, in taut, gorgeous form.

Unlike some later books, which can dawdle (charmingly) in their initial pages, “The Spy Who Came in From the Cold” drops right into the action, with our hero Alec Leamas, a gloomy, middle-aged alcoholic and spy, huddled at a chilly checkpoint on the Federal Republic side of the newly erected Berlin Wall. He’s sneaking …

Insight into why some people stop using mastodon. Sample from Bluesky so highly biased towards people who received invites from the new startup.

• got yelled at, felt bad
• couldn’t find people or interests, people didn’t stay
• too confusing, too much work, too intimidating
• too serious, too boring, anti-fun
• complicated high-stakes decisions
