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.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

I heard a story about a female academic giving a paper at the IHR who, after receiving a long and aggressive question from a senior male professor, simply leaned back with her hands behind her head and replied “Oh, do fuck off.”
One of my colleagues went to a seminar at Berkeley and when someone asked a question Derrida brushed it off saying ‘what you ask may be important but it is not interesting’.

My mother has reached out through the Cub saying she wants to meet me.
The woman I cut off all contact with
10+ yrs ago after decades of abuse/manipulation.
I think she's been told she's dying.
Can't think of any other reason she'd do this.
I've agreed to meet, but.
Really don't want to do this.

It's the pride of my tarot collection.
If you're looking for a gift for someone special, and just a wee tad eccentric, in your life, a combined gift of the book with the tarot could make them very happy.

I agree, absolutely pointlessly evil, Disabled people pay upfront for these cars that they lease themselves. These are often the only companies that provide the vehicle adaptations required.

Pointlessly evil.
Disabled people choose these brands bc they come with a guaranteed replacement vehicle WHICH IS ESSENTIAL IF YOU'RE DISABLED.
They pay the difference themselves.
So all you've done is tell disabled CEOs/working disabled people that they have to drive a Kia.
