Steve Silberman is so pissed about this Tylenol bullshit that he's screaming from the afterlife he didn't even believe in.
Increased rates of autism are due to testing, a broadened definition, and greater awareness. It's not vaccines. It's not Tylenol.
It's like his work never happened.

“a researcher who was not involved in the study called the results “remarkable” because they highlight a path to a frustratingly elusive goal in medicine — harnessing a person’s own immune defenses to target common solid tumor cancers.”
Donald Trump and Elon Musk are disrupting a breakthrough cancer treatment so they can fund tax cuts for billionaires.

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.

Prompted by a recent discussion, this is a very not-new question that never really gets old. What are the five best Phish shows you’ve seen? Or, your *favorite* five if that’s a different answer.
My answers are standard, but not (imo) in a bad way.

Anyone happen to have an extra for 12/29 Phish @ MSG? Had a ticket, but then I didn’t. I am in all for the other three and happy to share with anyone kind enough to sell me a solid seat (100s, low row 200s ideally).
