  • There’s actually a somewhat brand new miracle treatment for cancer that uses individual atoms of actinium-225.

    Each cancer cell gets a single atom, and then it dies when that atom decays. And since it’s an alpha decay, the cell gins some high energy helium. That’s it.

    Well, the atomic nucleus of a helium-4 atom. Which then rips some electrons from whatever it collides with.

    And then that happens a few times to produce bismuth-209, which has a halflife of 2x10^19 years. Which means it’s perfectly safe.

    Anyway, this treatment, called targeted alpha therapy is specifically approved for Bone metastasized prostate cancer, and significantly improves survival rates vs placebo.

    It’s not that good against solid tumors








  • Vegeta killed Yamcha once, and Buu killed him a second time.

    Technically it wasn’t even Vegeta, it was just the little green men that Vegeta and Nappa had seeds for.

    Krillian was actually alive to see that death.

    As for the death by Buu, that was being turned to chocolate and then being eaten.

    Krillian still has him beat on number of deaths, picking up an extra death on planet Namak.








  • Trump didn’t force Netanyahu into a ceasefire, that’s a blatant lie.

    The two announced a ceasefire and then, never actually ceased firing. So yeah, I’ll agree that a fake ceasefire was never a possibility under Biden, because he would never have gone along with it.

    Also, the reports are still saying that Harris was not a fan of Biden’s policy on Israel. So yes, the worse option is so much fuck worse than the alternative. The worse option is speedrunning the genocide, trying for a new record of innocents killed in the shortest timeframe.
