Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

I'm generally anti-Nintendo with two exceptions: Kirby games are awesome and Pokemon games are (mostly) awesome.

A thing #OuterWorlds2 does a lot with its dialog trees is give you a [Let companion talk] option. Often it's used when the companion already has some relationship to the person you're talking to.
It's so simple but I like it so much.
