This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.
I would be making a big deal out of this if I were an elected Democrat
NIH scientists have a cancer breakthrough. Layoffs are delaying it.
A big step forward in cancer therapy has been slowed by layoffs and new restrictions at the National Institutes of Health, where it was developed.

I'm looking forward to Metroid Prime 4, but because I'm an old nerd, it's M2 making Salamander III that has me grinning. Shoot-'em-ups for the win! Or something.
M2 and Konami are working on another collection- this time it's Gradius Origins, with a ShotTriggers feature set, rewind, galleries, starring all three arcade Gradius games, Salamander, Life Force, Salamander 2 and... The brand-new Salamander III!

There’s an Urdu name for a “Jack of all trades” that translates to “every talent Lord.” A Korean version is “eight direction beauty.” But my favourite name for someone who tries their hand at lots of different things is the Lithuanian Barbė devyndarbė. It means “Barbie nine jobs”

Sam Payne is one of the the coaches I work with at Kewford Eagles pan disability football, and last week, he lost his son at the age of just 19.
The family have now been hit by funeral costs of thousands of pounds. If you have a spare pound, it'd be appreciated.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
