Dr. Wu Flyboard. G1 Flattop was a genuine favorite of mine as a kid, so this is a must have for me.

Con 28 años fallecieron mi mujer y mi hija. Hasta los 30 estuve en la más absoluta mierda. Después del entierro intenté matarme con el coche, después pastillas, venas, todo lo que se me ocurrió. Terminé metiendome en peleas heavy, pero heavys de verdad, con el único objetivo de que mataran. No hubo un día que no estuviera borracho. Me levantaba con pesadillas por la noche y me cogía tal cogorza que me caía y me abría la cabeza. Cuando me despertaba me grapaba yo la cabeza para no tener que salir y poder seguir bebiendo. Perdí amigos, trabajo, mi vida, todo... 30 kilos. Yo tenía la vida soñada (para mí), buen trabajo, buen sueldo, buena casa,una mujer que me llenaba de una manera que no se explicar, una hija que era el centro absoluto de mi mundo. Tras esos dos años oscuros, la única persona que siempre estuvo ahí, sin importar la hora, sitio o incluso país, fue mi suegro. Él me sacó de esa mierda y gracias a él soy lo que soy hoy. Ese hijo de puta y yo ni si quiera nos llevábamos bien antes. Él siempre me dijo que lo hacía por lealtad a su hija. No he aprendido nada más valioso en mi vida. Y cuanto más tiempo paso con él y más le conozco, más entiendo por qué mi mujer era una persona tan increíble. Han pasado ya siete años y estoy aprendiendo a vivir otra vez, nunca va haber otra, ni la quiero. Pero soy capaz de seguir y estar agradecido por ciertas cosas. Hoy tengo un trabajo increíble, gano mas dinero del que jamás podré gastar, vivo donde quiero, estoy sano y bien, y mi compañero de vida es mi suegro, todo es para el y sus otras hijas. Y estoy muy agradecido por tenerles. Nada me las va a devolver, y ese hueco no se va a llenar. Pero hay que seguir. Sé que cuando las vuelva a ver ella estará cogiéndola en brazos y mirándola con esos ojos increíbles. Ése era mi universo. Y a él volveré. Si estás en la absoluta mierda, levántate, pegate, mójate, llora, grita, lo que sea, pero empieza de cero. De todo se puede salir. Coge rutinas, sal a la calle, come bien, dúchate. Cada pequeño paso que des, por pequeño que sea, es un logro. Odiate, sufre, vívelo y enfrentalo. Y cuando mires atrás sabrás de dónde vienes. Si esto lo lee alguien que está en la basura, mis dm están abiertos. No estás solo. En fin menuda chapa
can a 28-year-old start all over again?

An MIT Media Lab study used EEG to track what happens in the brain when people write with ChatGPT rather than on their own. Fifty four students completed essay tasks while wearing electrode caps. One group used ChatGPT, one used a search engine, and one used no tools. Across sessions, the ChatGPT group showed the weakest neural connectivity in networks linked to memory, attention, and analytical work. They also had more trouble recalling what they had just written and produced more generic prose. The authors describe this as a kind of cognitive debt: the tool does the synthesizing, and the brain stays quieter [1]. The same experiment points to a better order of use. Students who first wrote unaided and only later switched to ChatGPT showed stronger recall and more widespread brain activity than students who started with the model and then had to work alone. In other words, the model helped more when it scaffolded thinking that was already underway than when it replaced that thinking from the start. The practical lesson is not that large language models should be banned. It is that they work best as a second pass, after the writer has already done the hard part of forming and remembering an argument [1]. [Kosmyna, N., Hauptmann, E., Yuan, Y. T., Situ, J., Liao, X. H., Beresnitzky, A. V., Braunstein, I., & Maes, P. (2025). Your Brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of Cognitive Debt when Using an AI Assistant for Essay Writing Task. arXiv.

Here’s the deal, folks: I don’t care whether you’re he/him, she/her, they/them, or what have you. I don’t care whether you’re black or white, yellow or tan, pink or brown. I don’t care what God(s) you believe or, or not. Or who you love, or what language you speak, or where you’re from, or how much money you have. The bottom line is: If you’re a person of goodwill, who treats others with the same respect you’d wish for yourself and who chooses each day to put a little bit of good, happiness, and joy into the world, instead of making everyone around you miserable, then you’re fuckin’ A-OK in my book and a potential friend. Honestly, nothing else matters more than that—not politics, not nationalism, not religion. It’s really that simple. I don’t know… just felt like saying it today, for whatever reason. Cheers, everyone. :)

I am genuinely devastated. As a Trekkie I've long been a fan of Patrick Stewart's gifts, and he has given us so many moments to treasure. His portrayal of Captain Picard was legendary and unrivaled. I could spend the next week posting clips of my favorite scenes that he carried. Measure of a Man. Best of Both Worlds. Family. The Inner Light. But the moment that lives in my brain forever was this exchange he had with a fan, blogger Heather Skye, at Comicpalooza 13 years ago, where he shared his experience as a survivor of domestic violence. It was a moment of candor and vulnerability that you rarely see from men in public life, and so needed for such an important issue. More than that, it revealed the depth of his character. We have lost someone utterly irreplaceable today. “Live now. Make now always the most precious time. Now will never come again.” Thank you, Sir Patrick, for daring us to reach for the stars and dream of a world where we take care of each other. 🖖

Same rules apply as when Dolly Parton passed away... ... The best way to honor Patrick is to BE the best version of yourself. BE picard, BE xavier.... Don't talk about it just do it. For the captain.

Here’s the entirety of “I Love Patrick Stewart”, a featurette on the American Dad Volume 7 DVD, where a bunch of the American Dad cast and crew gush about how much they love Patrick Stewart for 8 minutes And you can really that he was loved, and he loved them back
