Crick researchers, in collaboration with Vividion Therapeutics, have developed a potential drug that blocks a key cancer growth signal, while still allowing healthy cell processes to continue.

The drug is currently undergoing its first clinical trial in humans.

My #YouTube Dubscriber count has been stuck at 1965 for what feels like forever now. Every time if creeps to the 7 or 8 mark it suddenly drops back down, ultimately settling at 1965 again.

I have no idea why, but if you feel like fixing this minor inconvenience for me then: youtube.com/@JDubDotEXE

It would certainly sort out the people only in it for the money.
I was thinking minimum wage, with a small bonus for every debate they show up for, but we shouldn't be rewarding the bastards for their job description. Maybe a small bonus if it genuinely helps the working class instead 😝

Here's the Keir Starmer rap...
None of the current crop of political parties truly care about the working class though

New! Cassetteboy vs Keir Starmer.

This took absolutely ages, so if you'd like to buy us a coffee at ko-fi.com/cassetteboy we'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Should I go to this whilst I'm off work for the week? I mean, I should be starting to save money, but it's Improv. I love Improv!

Susan Harrison @sueharrison123.bsky.social · 13d

This Thursday I'm doing a gig with these absolute legends of improv comedy; @josielawrence.bsky.social, @ruthbratt.bsky.social, Cariad Lloyd and Patti Stiles! How exciting. There might be some tickets left if you fancy it 🤩

Day one of my week off was spent in the company of these two lovely gents.
I may have won, but it's more the seeing these two lovely people, they introduced me to many of you gamers I follow on here and I will forever love them for that ❤️

Remember 20 years ago when we thought George W Bush was the dumbest president?
Now he looks normal compared to Trump

I'm not interested unless I can do this.
Until then, I'm happy with my Pair's. I can change the front with different toppers (like my profile pic shows)

I saw someone call Nigel a different name and now I have that name in my phone's dictionary.
Nigel will now be called Nigel Führage.
Dunno how we would spin it to suit Trump, but Führage will do for us 🤣🤣
