wanting to talk to people is so fucking embarrassing. literally hi it's me again I wanted to have a conversation with you because I think you're fun to talk to. oh god you can just fucking kill me if you want sorry
"Scientists should be working on curing cancer instead of doing [Thing]" just get funnier and funnier to me over time because
there's so many papers and studies about curing cancer that they drown everything else out. God help you if you're trying to research something that has ever been considered applicable to cancer research.
"cancer" is a whole category of diseases that includes hundreds of different things
The way i understand it, "cancer" is a consequence of cells aging and being exposed to stresses over time. The goal is to stop it from developing too early, curing cancer IN GENERAL is a bit like trying to cure entropy
the amount of progress we've made on treating and preventing cancer even in the last few decades is so insane, it's a lot more impressive than "curing" a single disease would be.
different scientists aren't interchangeable. What's a meteorologist going to do for cancer research
If we didn't have the other scientists, we would die a lot more of the other stuff
there WAS that one guy who programmed an AI to categorize different types of cookies and pastries that ended up being great for detecting cancer cells, so YOU NEVER KNOW

Wait!!! I'm researching something that helps this—river cane!
(Arundinaria gigantea, it's SE USA's native bamboo, and it's almost disappeared from the landscape and common knowledge but a 10 meters wide buffer of it it reduces nitrate pollution in runoff by an absolutely absurd amount...like 99%.)
Also there’s no incentive in our Big Pharma - Medical Industrial Complex to utilize cancer prevention and cure, when Treatment brings in many more billions of ducats and people will pay ANYTHING to live longer.
“Cures be damned when there’s profits to be had” is the American Way.
There's a kernel of truth to this, but you might wanna wear gloves handling whatever sources this idea came from, because "There are cures for [disease] out there, but Big Pharma wants to profit off treatments" comes from conspiracy theories.
People say this about cancer, diabetes, ADHD, infectious diseases, and everything else you can think of, either to sell essential oils and juice cleanses, or because they're trying to "cure" their autistic kid with essential oils and juice cleanses, or because they're just antivax+ the associated conspiracies
TERFs have also picked up a version of it to argue against hormone replacement therapies.
Am I saying this will be your new favourite show? That it will make you smile and shiver and puzzle and delight? That it's something really special? That it will ease the pain of waiting for other shows to happen?
Yes. I am saying that.
It's SO good. And it starts in three weeks...
Neil, do you specifically try to make things that will do numbers on tumblr dot com or is there some bizarre cosmic accident whereby your own personal interests and tastes are near perfectly mirrored by whatever hive mind is in charge of this place?
you know, I've been thinking, after this trail of carnage, I might just hang my sword up. just gotta slay these last few villains and I'll have evil solved, and there will be a place for me in this peaceful world I've created. with the sword.

I can’t let motherfuckers know I got desires or they’ll think I suck
First day at bodhisattva school can't let them know I'm unenlightened
it really is insane how waking up early will grant you access to some of the most beautiful sights and sensations in the world that will make you want to live forever, but only if you overcome the gauntlet of a thousand razors that is getting out of bed early. truly one of life's little saw traps.
If you're lamenting the fact that you used to be able to shoot through a 500-page novel in like a day when you were in middle school and now you can't, it's worth bearing in mind that a big part of that is because when you were in middle school, your reading comprehension sucked. Yes, mental health and the stresses of adult life can definitely be factors, but it's also the case that reading is typically more effortful as an adult because you've learned to Ponder The Implications. The material isn't just skimming over the surface of your brain anymore, and some of the spoons you used to spend on maximising your daily page count are now spent on actually thinking about what you're reading!
Look, nationalism is stupid. Nationalism is a grift. Nation-states are a bad basis for the global international order. But “your nation is fake” is just… it’s an inane argument! It doesn’t matter of your nation is 350 ethnicities in a trench coat, or if it’s not old enough to drive, or if it was invented to justify the rule of some inbred tyrant in the Middle Ages. Nations exist by virtue of people identifying with them; the only way a nation can be fake is if nobody identifies with it. And people plainly identify as Americans! Enthusiastically so! Of diverse ethnicities and languages!
“America isn’t a nation” is just a basic category error. You have misunderstood what a nation is. It’s not a bloodline or a patch of land or even something that has to be philosophically coherent and defensible. It’s a feeling! It’s a vibe! You think Germanness is any more coherent than Americanness? It’s completely fuckin’ arbitrary! They all are!

Turned into orange juice for a second
In B.C., Indigenous nations are reclaiming power and wealth for their own citizens—no matter what the neighbours think
this is so funny
"but uh when we advocated for indigenous sovereignty we thought you guys were just going to make a big park or something"
"fuck you. ultradense housing that bypasses your stupid zoning rules"
Reminds me of what @memecucker is always saying about the reactionary nature of cultural purity narratives.
White people are allowed to advance; nobody expects us to live like Victorians or medieval peasants. Nonwhite people are assigned some semi-fictional archetype from the imagined past and held to it forever.
mom listen. you need to help me order this shirt. yes, it says "call me a 737 cause i've got a few screws loose and I sucked a guy off". trust me it's very creative. you don't get it because you don't follow corporate crime in aerospace

In the meantime I discovered that yesterday, in Rome, this happened
do thé romans reenact this because it’s fun? or is it sad like when people reenact killing jesus?
Pretty harsh that they had to burn that actor though.
literally my favorite type of tweet
