The Consciousness Wars: I've received some very useful and entertaining beta reader feedback from Book 1 of my collection that I'm writing. Science Fiction and Fantasy aka SFF that I've turned into Thematic Realism SFF really paid off!

Ever wondered why the longer your chat grows, the stupider the AI becomes? It might be because you don't understand how context windows work. Let me enlighten you:

Instead of “I’m bad at this”. Say “This is new for me”. This gives your brain the space to learn instead of shut down. This is neuroplasticity in real time.

Scientists from Spain and China have made a major breakthrough in Alzheimer’s research. They created special nanoparticles that can clear away toxic brain plaque — one of the main causes of Alzheimer’s — and even reverse memory loss in mice. The study, published in Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, showed that just three injections of these nanoparticles removed up to 60% of the harmful amyloid beta proteins from the brain within one hour. The most amazing part is what happened afterward. Mice that had severe memory and thinking problems started behaving like normal, healthy mice again within six months. This dramatic recovery happened because the treatment didn’t just clean up the brain — it also repaired the brain’s blood-brain barrier (BBB). This barrier normally protects the brain and helps remove waste, but in Alzheimer’s, it becomes damaged and allows harmful substances to build up. These nanoparticles work like a “supramolecular drug,” which means they do more than just carry medicine — they actively help restore the brain’s natural cleaning system. They reactivate an important protein called LRP1, which helps clear waste from the brain. By fixing this system, the treatment improved blood flow, reduced inflammation, and allowed the brain to start healing itself. Although this research is still in the animal-testing stage, it opens an exciting new direction for Alzheimer’s treatment. Instead of only trying to destroy toxic proteins, future therapies might focus on reviving the body’s natural defenses. If this approach works in humans, it could completely change how we fight Alzheimer’s and other brain-degenerative diseases.

Mind over Matter. Think positive things. Make your world a positive place by doing so. Easy.

And this is why I respect people like Elon. I have to ignore a lot of the political bravado these days - but if you dig deeper into them as people, you can take in so much...it's unreal. Wild, really.

I love these kinds of posts. They feed my worldbuilding expertise for #SFF writing. There's so much a writer can do with this.

>Augmented reality + generative AGI means people can suddenly do expert-level work they never trained it's already here

Interesting - psychology mixed with #SFF . What's there not to like about this!!!

We’re headed to Riyadh 🛫

Marco Arnautovic was in tears at his first Red Star Belgrade press conference. He promised Sinisa Mihailovic, his former coach at Bologna who died of leukaemia, that one day he would play for them. Respect. ❤️

NASA DETECTS EARTH’S HEARTBEAT - PLANTS LITERALLY GLOW FROM SPACE Plants glow a faint red light while they photosynthesize, and satellites can see it from space. NASA and NOAA use that glow to track how much carbon dioxide plants are absorbing; It’s like checking the planet’s vital signs with laser vision. Paired with tools like the Greenness Index, it's done to help scientists map the Earth’s carbon cycle and see how healthy (or not) our biosphere really is. The result? A glowing red Earth, pulsing with plant activity. Source: National Science and Media Museum
