It’s also the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States Army.

There once was a time when even hardliners like Richard Nixon saw the benefits to encouraging large numbers of exchange students between our countries. But I guess he was too woke, and we have to go back to the racist policy of the 1800s.

I learnt a new thing: orthorexia.
Thanks.
This woman has no idea how the vast majority of people actually live and how their circumstances (which are not their fault) mean they can never do what she is suggesting. The end result is that she and her ilk will blame these people entirely, for their health problems, and do nothing fix those circumstances, or even think for a moment that they might have something do so with it and are also fixable.

Re: the MAHA report
Epidemiologist Katherine Keyes is listed in the MAHA report as the first author of a study on anxiety in adolescents. When NOTUS reached out to her this week, she was surprised to hear of the citation. She does study mental health and substance use, she said. But she didn’t write the paper listed.
“The paper cited is not a real paper that I or my colleagues were involved with,” Keyes told NOTUS via email. “We’ve certainly done research on this topic, but did not publish a paper in JAMA Pediatrics on this topic with that co-author group, or with that title.”
It’s not clear that anyone wrote the study cited in the MAHA report. The citation refers to a study titled, “Changes in mental health and substance abuse among US adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic,” along with a nonfunctional link to the study’s digital object identifier. While the citation claims that the study appeared in the 12th issue of the 176th edition of the journal JAMA Pediatrics, that issue didn’t include a study with that title.
I don’t know how the article can be full of examples like this and not mention AI.

My first and still best thought on this. ChatGPT hallucinations all over this shit, along with serious lack of editing (or caring about whether it was accurate or not.) It imagines something that sort of sounds like it supports their presuppositions, and that is good enough.

It’s always a nice bonus when these judgements are issued (in part) by judges that Trump himself appointed. Really helps undermine the whole “unelected activist judges shouldn’t have this power!” argument that they try to make when Trump was the one to put him there.
(Apologies for linking to Newsweek but they’re the only outlet I’ve seen so far that focused on this aspect of the story)

I know this is not news as such, but it is tearing through the medical community that FMGs (foreign med school grads) who are expected to start residencies in July are suddenly facing not getting their visas in time to start. This will affect over 6,000 people that the programs are counting on coming in in just a month. I know TACO, but this is really bad, especially in a country that is facing a critical shortage of doctors currently. What a fucking mess!

This was reminding me a little of an episode of King of the Hill but I had misremembered - that was about Emu, not ostriches.
