Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them

Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Matt and I made "Let's Talk About It" to explain the basic concepts of sex and relationships to teens. 9th most banned book in America! www.erikamoen.com/LetsTalk

Book cover of LET'S TALK ABOUT IT, pale green background with an assortment of cartoony teens drawn on it.

Comic page explaining how vulvas and penises are made from the same biological material and react similarly. The clitoral hood is homologous to foreskin, labia to scortum, clitoral head to penis head.

Comic page explaining how sometimes bodies can be physically aroused for sex even when the person mentally isn't in the mood and vice versa. Likewise, people can be turned on by erotic fantasies but that doesn't necessarily mean they'd ever want to act on them or have them happen in real life.

Comic page explaining how "virginity" is an outdated concept that doesn't reflect the wide spectrum of sexual activities people can do together. Also, it's ok and natural to not want to do sexual activities now or ever.

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

A parking lot showing a cybertruck in one spot, next to a car that has built a cybertruck-esque shell around it out of green plastic. It's really hard to describe exactly how silly this vehicle looks next to the green car.

On another Earth, in an even more tech-filled, desolate 00s (that still has dial-up), a young girl dreams of being a superhero. One night Scout finds herself light-sensitive, regenerative, and lizard-like. 🦎Not the powers one asks for, but what she can do but save some cats?--

a girl with short black hair and a completely light blue eye. Her hair has streaks of blue that match.

A small, blue, alien creature lands in front of a lost child. "Hi!" "oh-- Oh no." "No, it's okay-- don't be scared. I'm a super hero. I saw you crying, what's wrong?" "I'm lost. "Ah, maybe I can help. Where do you live? Where's your mom and dad ah--?" "uh... " "I really wanna help honey, for real."

"My name's scout, what's yours?" "Aaron..." "it's nice to meet you aaron. Can you tell me what happened?" "uh.. my mom... we were at the store..." "aw, we'll find her, alright? You like piggybacks?" "okay..." "I'm gonna run around and then you jus' tell me when you see a place you know." "yeah... okay." "Sorry about my big head." The sun begins to slowly rise...

"hurryyyy.." she pleads, but the sun rises and is very intense to her sensitive vision. She hides quickly behind a dumpster.

The thing is that once problems/disasters start piling up the answer we're going to hear will not be "we need to hire back all those controllers", it will be an excuse to privatize/switch to AI/whatever. "Look! The government sucks and can't run things!"

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children.

Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

“Are you feeling all right?” I asked her.

“I feel all sleepy,” she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.

The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her.

On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.

i'm so excited to announce that Possum Creek and all our full-time employees have become an imprint at Steve Jackson Games!

February 11, 2025: Welcome Possum Creek!
We are thrilled to announce that Possum Creek, the award-winning independent game publisher, has joined Steve Jackson Games as an imprint. Based in Philadelphia, Possum Creek is best known for Wanderhome, a pastoral fantasy RPG about traveling animal-folk. Wanderhome has won numerous awards, including ENNIEs for Best Family-Friendly Game, Best Cover Art, and Best Interior Art.

As an imprint, Possum Creek will still have full creative and editorial control over their titles. However, the Possum Creek team will also lend their talents to the SJ Games design and visual branding. Jay Dragon, Editorial Director at Possum Creek, will join our Board Of Directors and become our Lead Game Designer. Ruby Lavin will become our Art Director while retaining that position at Possum Creek.

What does all of this mean? It means that Steve Jackson Games will keep bringing innovative, exciting, and fun games to the tabletop gaming community – and that we have even more talented people to help us in that mission. We can't wait to see what comes next!
