the implications here are unfathomably insane
The ranking members of the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees have written a letter to President Trump asking whether he has been soliciting advice from Grok in order to help carry out his official duties as President of the United States.
They also demanded that he preserve any prompts sent to Grok, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity, as well as outputs in response to those prompts, that were 'submitted to AI chatbots in carrying out your constitutional, statutory, or other official or ceremonial duties.'
The letter was provided by Politico.
Trump pacing back and forth, muttering "I TOLD them to start calling it Super Intelligence"
BREAKING: Anthropic is now expected to receive a "high junk" rating from major credit rating agencies after its IPO, which could come as soon as November, per FT.
Details include:
1. Blackstone has told investors that Anthropic likely will not receive an investment-grade rating immediately after its IPO
2. Blackstone is working with banks that stumped up financing on selling the debt on to other investors
3. An investment-grade rating is "central" to Anthropic's ability to continue its AI buildout
4. The company says it expects to spend over $800 billion on computing infrastructure between now and 2045
Debt markets are increasingly in the spotlight as AI funding becomes less abundant.

i don't think people realize just how revolutionary retatrutide is
so far, clinical trials have shown:
- up to 25–28% bodyweight loss in 80 weeks, basically - approaching bariatric surgery results without the surgery
- reduction of knee arthritis pain by ~70% in some patients
- sleep apnea going into remission or becoming mild in up to half of patients
- up to 93% of prediabetics returning to normal blood sugar levels
- lowers blood pressure
- lowers triglycerides by up to 41%
-lowers non-HDL cholesterol by ~16–20%
- reduces inflammatory markers by over 50%
- reduces liver fat by up to 86%, with up to 93% of patients in some groups returning to normal liver fat levels
plus all the benefits that come from simply losing weight
and now they're testing its effects on chronic back pain, cardiovascular disease, kidney outcomes and more
there's now a single drug that can make people lose a quarter of their bodyweight while improving or potentially reversing many of the most common chronic conditions that plague hundreds of millions of people. insane
and it's still in clinical trials, imagine what decades of improved metabolic health could mean for human health and longevity
literally a miracle drug
What is the deal with Catholic exorcists listening to the demons? Do you know how easily this could be a lie designed to mess up the overly scrupulous? They teach Catholic exorcists that demons lie, right? Think about it for a second. "Hey let's get this Priest to repeat a warning that will make people think about demons when they approach the Eucharist."
Insane.
"One of the most disturbing words I heard from the mouth of a possessed person during an exorcism is how demons accompany each communicant IN THE STATE OF MORTAL SIN when they line up for holy communion. And when the communicant receives the body of Christ, the demons are exuberant for the sacrilege committed and the condemnation the communicants bring to themselves. This reminded me of the words of St. Paul: "So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord." (1 Cor. 11:27)."
(Exorcist Fr. Winston Fernandez Cabading)
Reminder that when they offered the role of the poop emoji in the emoji movie to Jordan Peele, he took it as an insult and thought it was beneath him and it led to him quitting acting, so they were like "fine, we will offer it to Sir Patrick Stewart," and he gladly took the role and made jokes about how it was one of the most important roles of his career. RIP to a real one.
what if all this fear mongering leads to nothing happening and the admin comes out with some story about how they averted the crisis and saved america
never panic buy, you should only buy stuff when you're bored or sad, if you panic buy that means they got you

We checked the trail cams, and it looks like some coyotes spooked the catechumens last night. They stampeded and broke a few fence posts in their catechumen holding pen.
Reminder to all parish councils: make sure you are doing regular maintenance on the catechumen holding pen (and also the inquirer shed). Check for old fence posts, make sure the barbed wire is taut, and that measures are taken to deter predators.
