I'm going drop this quote that @mbcollings gave the Deseret News awhile back:
deseret.com/2014/11/1/205516…
Christians shouldn’t be a fan of horror.
You shouldn’t be reading books, or watching movies, or listening to true crime podcasts that make you scared.
How many times do we read throughout Scripture: “Do not fear.”
And yet, we purposefully consume content that makes us scared. This is a direct contradiction of Jesus’ commands to not be fearful or be anxious about anything.
Today I learned that many Korea has refrigerators specifically designed for kimchi.
As awful as this app is sometimes, I do love the random cultural exchanges that happen.

So after 2 minutes of research I present the more accurate headline of:
"Utah allows pilot program for AI to write prescriptions of low-risk drugs for mild to moderate acne pending review by licensed clinician."
I'll admit, it's not nearly as punchy.
JUST IN: Utah becomes the first U.S. state to allow AI to prescribe medication without direct doctor review.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Utah has approved a limited AI sandbox pilot (Nolla Health) allowing AI to prescribe certain low-risk acne medications after an initial phased review period. This is not unrestricted AI prescribing of any medication.

I see Shaq is still somewhat bitter about 1998.
Shaquille O’Neal says John Stockton had an easy job and anyone could have become the NBA’s all-time assists leader by throwing the ball to Karl Malone
“I'm tired of y'all giving people with easy jobs greatness. Anybody could have done what John Stockton did. Throw the ball to Karl Malone”
“What if you trade John Stockton for Scott Skiles. Are they the same guy? He can't come off the pick and roll and throw the ball to Karl Malone and be the all time assist leader?”
“I wasn't disrespecting John Stockton. I just hate when y'all talk about these people that had easy jobs. I had to carry. John Stockton just had to deliver. Tony Parker just had to deliver”
“Dennis Rodman. When Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen got doubled, you get a free run to the lane and get a rebound. That's the easy freaking job. When he left the fucking Bulls, what did he do? I'll wait”
Not sure how I feel about Godzilla Minus Zero getting an R rating. Makes me a bit concerned since what made Minus One such a great movie had very little to do with the violence in the film.
I believe your assessment is incorrect.
As an example, D&C 19:16-24 (but really, the whole section) is very much about the Savior.
I think something that folks who don't remember 9/11 don't understand is how pervasive the news coverage was. TV, radio, Internet...nothing but news.
Why do we remember it so clearly? Because we saw it happen live, then watched it on repeat again and again for a week straight.
"Okay, so Godzilla Minus Zero is coming out soon. How are we going to get people to want to watch our Godzilla movie instead?"
"We could write human characters that the audience can care about."
"Nah, too much work."
"...Random sex scene?"
"Brilliant."
Kristina Sexton will serve as the intimacy coordinator for 'Godzilla x Kong: Supernova'.
The previous Monsterverse films did not utilize an intimacy coordinator.

There are no romance films guys watch. It's not a thing. The romance is always a subplot and often a distraction that must be mitigated to retrieve the Ark. If romance is the main preoccupation of the film, then it's not for guys. If Shawshank Redemption suddenly flipped mid movie as Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins made out, that's a chick flick. Groundhog Day on the surface seems like a romance first guy flick, but men are more fascinated by the mechanics of tweaking rules to solve a problem. They love algorithms more than Andie McDowell. There are rare outliers but one 5'5 NBA player does not prove short kings is the norm of basketball. There's only one Before Sunrise.
I feel like Nolan's Odyssey movie has brought things full circle. The people who used to (rightfully) mock the other side for accusing them of wrong-think and wrong-fun are now accusing others of wrong-think and wrong-fun if they don't hate the Odyssey.
To quote Inigo Montoya: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means".
(Below is my local library. Not only is "Different Seasons" available there, both the ebook and audiobook have weeks long waiting lists).
I thought the close-ups made it look bad, but now that I see what it's near it somehow looks even worse.
I'm not sure how I ended up in the corner of the Internet where Japanese folks are hyping up the movie "Equilibrium" (apparently titled "Rebellion" in Japan), but I am happy to be here.
"And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."
In the first 10 years of MAID, more than 100,000 Canadians have averted unnecessary suffering at end-of-life. That's cause for celebration. Assisted death has become a significant ritual, not a 'slippery slope,' by @picardonhealth theglobeandmail.com/gift/0fc… via @GlobeDebate
Out of all things I was expecting to see on the Internet today, Batman being rescued by the ghost of Jeb Stuart driving a tank was *NOT* on the list.
Hey @TheLegalMindset , how is this post from NBC about Kyle Rittenhouse looking defamation wise?
Kyle Rittenhouse, who gained fame for opening fire at a 2020 civil rights rally in Wisconsin, was hospitalized after he was bitten by a venomous spider, the noted firearms enthusiast says. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/gun…
Auto-translate has restored my faith in humanity like nothing I've ever experienced. It started out with dumb jokes and pictures of food, to people around the world seeing a man's tribute to his late wife and coming together to mourn with him.
I think we're going to make it.
I'm not as tall as Yao Ming, but I'm tall enough that the first thing I thought was "You didn't even let the man sit in the front row? That poor man's legs are going to be so stiff."
