Capitalism took cancer research, funded by taxpayers and performed by graduate students and post docs for no profit, slapped a hefty price tag on it for the public, then called it "innovation" to justify the insane amount of money they were able to extract from the masses (the same masses that originally funded that research).
You made a huge mistake. :)
Less than a month, I can't wait. Nynaeve and Moghedien in the Panarch's Palace incoming!!
Just watched a speech from Ibrahim Traore for the first time earlier today. It was very powerful. The four Sahel states are showing great fortitude and bravery as they stand up to NATO imperialism and the collaborators (i.e., traitors) in ECOWAS. Seeing the Burkinabe PM speak at the recent Sandinista celebration was fantastic too!
Thanks for helping me learn more about the other Sahel states and their united efforts.
You're totally right, the US government and business elite were content to make money from both sides of the conflict right up until Dec 7, 1941 and the subsequent DoWs from Germany and Italy (once the US declared on Japan). They may have favored Britain and France in trade/indirect support somewhat before that, but that was more a result of historical diplomatic and economic ties, rather than any issue with the German political system.
The US government is not (and has never been) against fascism for ideological reasons. Fascism and American-style democracy go hand in hand quite well. Our government fought a war against fascists because they disrupted the global trade status quo and threatened US economic prosperity and that of our primary trade partners.

I know of a hospital where the local university sends tracers with F-18 for PET scans in much the same way. Half-life of 110 minutes.
100% spot on, sadly. The level of misogyny and other types of bigotry was the most surprising, when taken relative to the university environment in general.
American Giant. Expensive, but they have a great warranty and the craftsmanship is top notch.
Rod Farva level of stupid.
Women are not really relevant to what the actives are trying to do so they are obviously not bringing them up at convention or not this video helped me understand why an elementary schooler might actual know what we find a new leak in our ceiling and we also need to secure a cat sitter to the firehose of content that a massive social media platform brings.
Requires an acid catalyst for the reaction to actually proceed, but yeah, could definitely ruin your day - although a lungful of chlorine gas is nothing to sneeze at either.
According to the story I heard as to the origin of the "no liquids over X amount" rule, years ago there was a terrorist that tried to smuggle hydrogen peroxide and acetone - which can be used to rather easily synthesize triacetone triperoxide (TATP, a highly sensitive explosive) - onto a plane in plastic toiletry bottles. They got caught and foiled somehow, and then the TSA started restricting liquids on planes. This was in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, if I recall correctly.
And I happen to know, from a reliable source, of someone who accidentally made TATP in a rotary evaporator in an academic lab. So it seems plausible.
Not that the rule is actually effective prevention against similar attacks, nor that the TSA even knows what the reason is behind what they do at this point, haha. I just thought it was an interesting story.
No postage needed in California, nor Massachusetts if I recall correctly. Does your state really make you find a stamp to vote in 2024? That sucks, sorry to hear that.
Dumb. Acting like the good cop to Trump's bad cop routine is turning tons of people off. "You'd better cooperate with me now or I'll have to bring my associate in here, and he won't be so nice!"
Supposedly Harris told a representative of the uncommitted voting bloc from the Dem primaries that she was down to meet to discuss an arms embargo on Israel, but I wouldn't hold my breath. She needs to be more forthright about her stance, because the subtextual indications of being flexible on this and her hypothetical empathy for Palestinians I keep hearing about (but not really seeing in any meaningful way) are not cutting it anymore.
I would also like to see a similar graph for mid-term elections. Do the winners even get 10% of the eligible votes?
Laboratory Safety and Research Productivity
Having worked in an academic chemistry lab after the 2008 death at UCLA, I always wondered about the actual statistical relation described in this paper.
Personally, I think universities and colleges don't go far enough in educating workers on how to integrate safer approaches into all the highest risk processes done in their research labs. This paper seems to show that what has been implemented so far is not a significant impediment to research output either.
