“Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial. Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.”
This is why we should fund science. 🧪
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
i have very rapidly become incapable of thinking about anything that isn’t this video
no offence but if the game industry requires me to buy every release I’m even vaguely lukewarm on at launch price to survive then the industry is already fucked
Thank you for the view, sir. Very sexy
Lovin' the forest down there, sexy!
Zelda is actually the name of the princess. The character you control is Zelda's Monster.
Gladly handsome, looking so gorgeous
SCREAMING THIS FROM THE FUCKING ROOFTOPS
Yearning is one of the most painful emotions

Somehow “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” has morphed into “antisemitism is totally fine if you dress it up as anti-Zionism,” an evolution which by the way ADL and AJC have facilitated.
I said this for years; leftists can be antisemetic. Anti-Israel criticism can morph into antisemetic conspiracy theories. For saying this, I was harassed and called a “Zionist”, despite having always been anti-Zionist because it is a colonial ideology requiring the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
Gladly handsome!!
Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.
sorry basically the problem of my life is that i internalized and believed a lot of stuff people said about valuing children and loving your neighbor and living in a society at the exact moment that everyone in power decided all of that shit was fake and gay and not a way to make a living
Not a day goes by when I’m not saying this.
Periodic reminder that ICE does not just track and watch immigrants. They are collecting and storing information on us all.
Looking very handsome!
for those fixated on congressional authorization, i get it. this is a massive violation of our constitutional order.
even so, congress *cannot* legitimize an illegal war. there is nothing congress can do to make it legal under int'l law.
Stop calling everything a distraction.
It's not funny or clever.
It's insulting to people's intelligence.
It minimizes what is actually going on.
It also discounts that some politicians are just evil and stupid.
Sometimes I wish I could slap people through the internet.
I dont think he was bad faith. I was pointing out that it could've happened sooner. Youre right that fielding a crises is hard & probably delayed it. The article could've written it better.
Now the convo should center the ableism and racism that came from this, because thats the pressing issue
The point of apologizing, even for something unintended, is often to help alleviate the harm caused.
That article you posted came out today, so hopefully once it gets seen everyone will realize he apologized and this will be a settled thing.
I am not NT. And my wording may have been off, but I do not believe he ever meant it the slur. By genuine I just meant a direct apology to those affected, not a broad one to everyone.
It was involuntary and he did not mean harm, and he says himself in that article he felt a lot of shame about it.
He is not culpable for his tic, which everyone in this thread has acknowledged was involuntary.
But apologizing for the harm that was caused is the good thing to do in this situation. Because it eases tensions and helps both affected parties. Which he did, according to that article. So thats good
You've ignored anyone proving to you that the words he made in the initial apology most of us saw was not an actual apology.
It is not ablesit to take offense to slurs or expect apologies for them.
The full culpability needs to be aimed at BAFTA for the mic, and BBC for not editing it out
If he offered a genuine apology to those affected, that's good to hear. Yet:
1. "Since the fallout" implies it was the backlash that spurred on the apology, which should've been given asap.
2. The BBC should be held even more responsible, for putting a mic near him knowing he would tic
No, his apology was very broad and boiled down to "I'm sorry if you were offended" as the sentiment.
The two black men and the black people in the audience should've been the targets of his apology. And it is very easy to say "I am sorry for the harm I caused, unintended or not"
