Because it has a well understood oncogenesis, because immunotherapy and selective therapy drugs tend to work well against Melanomas, and because since it's localized in peripheral tissues it's easy to access and model?

Smuggled/evacuated to where? To the Sinai where Sisi has erected concentration camps, or to Israel's ~~bombing site~~ "humanitarian" zone, or to the destroyed uninhabitable North? There is no where to go, and the resistance's infrastructure can't exactly shelter a million people.

Forgot that Starliner was still a thing. Boeing/ULA is such a joke,

While I live on Liberal Mountain, I can testify that Iowa seems to have no culinary tradition. It's south of Midwestern German/Scandanvian/Polish food, and north/east of the Southern/Tex-mex food.

An immediate vote might be a win. A months away vote is a defeat for the student movement here.

I don't see why you can't baptize someone in Gatorade. It's just sugar water. How would that prevent it from being used in baptism?

I was talking about the anti-Trump inauguration J20 protests from 2016.

I can't imagine federal charges sticking, especially comparing this to the attempts to convict the J20 protestors. Still, it's a way to intimidate and make the protestors' lives hell for a few years.

It's been an absurd mishandling of the IP by Take Two. Will probably be permanently stuck in early access with only maintenance development at best.

So, one thing that I am unclear on (or maybe missed0, did the IOF breach/flush out the resistance tunnel networks? Every zionist mouthpiece and zionist-aligned media organization has been making claims of effective military victory (once they clear out Rafah), but I want to be clear if that's pure propaganda or if the resistance is on the back-foot.

Definitely stolen from a lab, those are white lab mice.

If it's a exposed skin on that back like that, it could be a infectious disease/vaccine study, but probably not. My first guess would be cancer.

A lot of people (myself included) had the update installed automatically by Steam with no option for rollback, so it caught people off guard.

 

Been thinking about the Peterson bit, a bit.

It's striking to me how far Peterson had to stretch to find an analogue in nature to his vision of individualist dog-eat-dog capitalism. Even if lobsters form the individualistic hierarchies he valorizes, they're still wet bugs. He might as well said "consider the ant," or "consider the krill" or "consider the dung beetle." All of these creatures have evolved social structures that allows them to fit into their environment, but it's only with this one particular category that Peterson finds anything resembling his ideals, and it's something far detached from humanity. If he had considered the chimpanzee, the gorilla, the orangutan or the bonobo, far closer cousins, he's not going to find anything like the "natural order" he envisions.

I guess, this is to say that this vision of capitalism is a fundamentally alien concept, and it's fitting that Peterson had to draw on the stark and quite alien landscape of the ocean floor to find a metaphor for this system.

 

I just wanted to say mea culpa (partially responsible) to our furry users. I saw the thread and immediately thought of the Grover Pasta and had to post.

Anyways, Slurp Juice V3 is in the works. I'm drunk right now, drinking for the first time after working (and procrastinating) on a paper for 3 weeks. Do not AMA.
