And audiences are racist. Not in the sense that they don't want to see Black actors, but in the sense that they expect movies to work a certain way that has been dictated and finessed by a white industry for 100 years. We expect movies to be constructed according to whiteness.

possibly the thing i love most about this (and already i love a lot) is that the third xiao hua is looking so affectionately at hei xiazi because he just snapped a guy's neck for him. that's how you know the love is real and true #dmbj

I have just read an officially translated NPSS DMBJ story in which Pangzi is translated/described as “my friend Chunk,” and now I must vacate this universe.

I always want to say something pithy and amusing about this moment but all that's ever running through my head is, "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW? GET A ROOM."

Tomorrow is the big day for Jester & Fjord!

Are you all ready to celebrate the wedding in perfect Mighty Nein style? I’m sure nothing will go wrong at all 😂

A reinterpretation of Leighton’s “Call to Arms”, dedicated to the bride & groom💙✨
#criticalrole #criticalrolefanart @criticalrole.bsky.social

An illustration re-interpreting the painting “Call to Arms” by Leighton. Jester and Fjord are leaving an elegant building after getting married, followed by Caleb, Essek, Beau, Yasha, Caduceus and Veth, as Kingsley stops them on the steps, seemingly telling them about something important and pointing to the side.
He’s asking them to join on a new adventure or maybe fight an incoming danger.
All of the Mighty Nein are dressed in very fancy clothing, Jester has a beautiful white gown with pink embroidery. Every’s face is either shocked or excited.

In the background, we see various buildings, one showing the “Lavish Chateau” sign.
Many NPC, guest characters and easter eggs are hidden in the image.

Researchers envision their vaccine being used as both a treatment and a preventive, and as an approach to treating multiple cancer types.
• www.umass.edu/news/article...

The study has been published in Cell Reports Medicine. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.
• www.cell.com/cell-reports...

🧪🧵⬇️

HIGHLIGHTS
•Lipid NPs carrying STING and TLR4 agonists promote synergistic type I interferons
• NPs drain efficiently to lymph nodes and increase polyfunctional T and B cells
• NPs improve tumor-free outcomes with memory against multiple aggressive tumor models
SUMMARY
We report on the utility of a "super-adjuvant" nanoparticle (NP) system as a modular, customizable platform for next-generation cancer vaccination. Using nanomaterials engineering technology, we aim to harness not only the effective adjuvanticity of whole-pathogen vaccines, but also the safety of subunit vaccines.
Our lipid-based NP platform co-encapsulates agonists of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathways to promote synergistic production of type I interferons and other
proinflammatory cytokines in innate antigen-presenting dendritic cells and macrophages.
Compared to empty NPs and free agonists, dual-adjuvant NPs administered with antigenic peptides or tumor cell lysate promote increased antigen processing and presentation, drain efficiently to nearby lymph nodes, increase polyfunctional tumor-specific T and B cells, and improve tumor-free outcomes upon vaccination and subsequent challenge with multiple aggressive tumor cells.

Graphical Abstract

The vaccine combines two immune-stimulating molecules (adjuvants) in a tiny lipid nanoparticle that enhances both innate and adaptive immune responses. The innate immune system acts as the body’s first line of defense, responding quickly and non-specifically to invaders using cells that release inflammatory signals. The adaptive immune system takes longer to activate but provides a targeted, long-lasting response, training T-cells and B- cells to recognize and remember specific threats. Together, they form a coordinated defense: the innate system alerts and activates the adaptive system, which then delivers precise and durable immunity.
