The vast new ‘whaling ship’ that Japan hopes will revive a shrinking industry
In the new vessel, the whaling industry envisions an age of prosperity and rising demand, ultimately guaranteeing the future of the most controversial ingredient in Japan’s culinary repertoire
The new vessel’s range of 13,000km is fuelling suspicion that,

Sublime release their second album, “Robbin the Hood”

Red Ventures has destroyed its reputation, along with all their other properties’ like ZDNet (the other fantastic tech news site). RV’s decisive pivot to AI is likely fatal; they will accelerate the descent of all their outlets into a content swill mill fit only for your blocklist.

I'm still learning about health vs body size and this article does a good job addressing the complexities revealed by the popularity of Ozempic and similar drugs.
"By treating obesity as a disease rather than as a moral failing, these drugs and the doctors who champion them do bolster the more righteous aims of fat activists to divorce size from moral judgment.
