In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

Oof.

Just a reminder that fascists, authoritarians, dictators of all stripes destroy archives— books, museums, databases, &c— because those things provide windows onto a plurality of other ways we might organize the world. And so preserving, defending, and spreading that knowledge harms those regimes.

Update: speeding up HP heal speed also neuters exp speed, so I'm skipping on it for the time being

Outcry as Trump withdraws support for research that mentions ‘climate’ www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

Next update should feature faster HP *heal* speed as well because apparently I never thought to go back and implement that.

Gov. Mills tells Trump to his face that Maine will not be bullied into complying with his anti-transgender order. “We’re going to follow the law sir. We’ll see you in court,” she said. mainemorningstar.com/2025/02/21/g...

Might just release v4.0.4 in the immediate future so those bugfixes are in, I waited and got more in but as time goes on the remaining bugs become increasingly obscure or irrelevant to the average player to begin with. These are some of the last bugs that the average person can notice.

My warmest greetings go out to the wonderful people who built their careers sniffing out “Ukrainian Nazis” under every stone in Ukraine for tasty headlines that fueled Russian war propaganda on this-is-why-Ukraine-must-be-dealt-with, only to get Nazi salutes normalized in their own country.

It's #FossilFriday & Oregon's birthday! Did you know our state fossil is also a living tree? The genus was thought to be extinct until Chinese botanists found a living Metasequoia in 1943. The green leaf is from a descendant of that rediscovered tree, planted on the University of Oregon campus.

It's #FossilFriday, lets celebrate with the fantastic facades of the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences, Cambridge, UK.

Today is International Mother Language Day For many minority communities, learning in their mother tongue isn’t just about education; it’s about identity, self-esteem & cultural survival. This is especially true for Roma children, whose language and culture have long been marginalised across Europe

Noticing the news orgs slowly getting fed up with this administration albeit while still constantly pumping out incredibly subservient and reprisal-avoiding puff pieces

A Polish meme, in the wild, on main

Even *if* their fossil collections were somehow rehoused at other institutions, the potential closure of the Paleontological Research Institute would be an incalculable loss to specimen-based research. It would also eliminate an immensely important educational facility for students and the public. 🧪

As a reminder I care about y'all and I believe in you and we're going to get through this one way or another. It's never too late for things to get better. There's always something worth fighting for.
