"I have been in pain daily for months. Today I went to urgent care and asked for an ultrasound. Found out that I have three fibroids, one cyst, one enlarged ovary and one large mass that is 11cm. At what point will my situation be considered an emergency?" That’s what endometriosis campaigner Aubrion Rogers wrote on Instagram last year after her endometriosis had gone dismissed and untreated by the doctors she had approached and asked for help. Rogers, 30, finally convinced doctors in January that her condition was serious and they agreed to operate. She had been suffering with endometriosis at least since her diagnosis in 2020 – and given what we know about extreme diagnosis delays for the condition, probably much longer. On 22nd January 2022 Rogers died in surgery from complications that arose when doctors were trying to remove her endometriosis. According to a Facebook post written by her husband, she was rushed into surgery after her right ovary burst. During surgery, doctors attempted to remove the ovary as well as her right fallopian tube, her appendix, endometriomas and endometriosis. She suffered a cardiac arrest and passed away while attempting to recover from the procedure.

Pokémon-style NFT battler Axie Infinity was one of the biggest “success” stories in the world of crypto gaming. Now it’s responsible for one of the biggest thefts in the history of the technology. The gaming-focused blockchain Ronin Network announced earlier today that an Axie Infinity exploit allowed a hacker to “drain” roughly $600 million worth of crypto currency from the network. “There has been a security breach on the Ronin Network,” the company announced on its Substack. “Earlier today, we discovered that on March 23rd, Sky Mavis’s Ronin validator nodes and Axie DAO validator nodes were compromised resulting in 173,600 Ethereum and 25.5M USDC drained from the Ronin bridge in two transactions.” The person responsible allegedly used hacked private keys to order the fraudulent withdrawals. How, you ask? According to Ronin, “the attacker found a backdoor through our gas-free RPC node, which they abused to get the signature for the Axie DAO validator.”

Gender-critical news outlet Lesbian and Gay News has been shut down with its management team seemingly blaming the LGB Alliance and trans people for its downfall. The so-called Lesbian and Gay News was set up in February 2021 by Boyz magazine owner David Bridle after he was widely condemned for his support of LGB Alliance, widely considered to be an anti-trans pressure group. The website’s “about” page says it was set up to “reflect the lives, politics and culture of same-sex attraction and to report major debates around sex and gender”. In its one year in operation, Lesbian and Gay News focused almost entirely on trans rights. In a post published on Sunday (27 March), the website’s management team confirmed that it is no longer in operation. The team said it is proud of its “important and signifiant contribution to the GC [gender critical] movement at a critical point”, but went on to say “cancel-culture activism” from “gender ideology hate groups and activists” had stopped it from getting advertising revenue.

St. Louis beer heiress Trudy Busch Valentine joined the heated race for Missouri’s U.S. Senate seat Monday. The move triggered former state Sen. Scott Sifton, who had represented south St. Louis County in the Legislature’s upper chamber until 2020, to exit the race and throw his support to the wealthy Clayton resident. Valentine is expected to make a formal announcement Tuesday about her plans to seek the office as a Democrat. Valentine is the daughter of the late Anheuser-Busch beer baron August “Gussie” Busch Jr., who died in 1989. Her mother, Gertrude “Trudy” Busch, was Busch’s third wife. She has been a major fundraiser for Democratic candidates. In 2016, she held a fundraiser at Grant’s Farm, the historic homestead of the Busch family, for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. The 2016 event was organized by Joyce Aboussie, a longtime Democratic operative. In addition to Sifton, guests included former U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, former Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster, and former St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay. In addition to contributing more than $37,000 to campaign accounts supporting Clinton, federal campaign records show Valentine has written checks to U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth, an Illinois Democrat. With filing to close Tuesday, there are at least 10 Democrats running for the Senate seat being vacated by Republican Roy Blunt, including Jefferson City native Lucas Kunce.

Bretwulfo kept stumbling across a message that will be familiar to anyone who’s played Elden Ring: “Try finger, but hole.” At this point, many players would probably roll their eyes at finding yet another use of the game’s messaging system to graffiti crude humour across FromSoft’s incredible fantasy world. The problem was that Bretwulfo is Brazilian, and plays the game in Portuguese – that oft-seen message simply does not translate the same way. “I was always plunging into holes thinking there was going to be something in it,” Bretwulfo says. “I only got what it was supposed to mean after someone placed it on the ass of a corpse.” For players who don’t speak English as their first language, Elden Ring’s many meme-messages can be far more of a troll than they were ever intended to be – and English-speaking players may well be getting just as confused by some international equivalents.
