Some simple facts about international trade:
1. It's voluntary, so the idea that only one side is benefiting from any trade is in general ridiculous
2. Saying that tariffs *MAY* raise prices to consumers is just bad economics. In almost all realistic cases, tariffs WILL raise consumer prices.

Deaths from alcohol specific causes in England rose by 42.2% between 2019 and 2023, the highest number on record.
A national strategy to tackle the harms caused by alcohol is long overdue, and important for reducing health inequalities, say Julia M A Sinclair et al

Rethinking Immune Check Point Inhibitors Use in Liver Transplantation: Implications and Resistance
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer therapy, including the two most common liver tumors, hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma, but their use in the peri-transplantation period is controversial. ICI therapy aims to heighten cytotoxic T lymphocytes response against tumors. However, tumor recurrence is common owing to tumor immune response escape involving ablation of CTL response by interfering with antigen presentation, triggering CLT apoptosis and inducing epigenetic changes that promote ICI therapy resistance.

something that is especially clear if you have studied colonialism a bit: a load bearing aspect of maintaining even a semblance of democracy (or defending a sitting autocracy from democracy) is having a military that is unwilling to kill its own citizens

There is something so ironic about debating with Westerners whether there is a meaningful distinction between democracy and dictatorship on the same day that Koreans demonstrate that they not only know the difference but will fight to maintain it.
