I am so flipping proud of DH. Since close to when we moved here, he's worked on the metabolism aspects for two drugs targeting class 4 melanoma. He works on a lot of other drugs too, pulling 12-hour + days, same as much of the team he works with. Weekends too. Both drugs gained FDA approval yesterday. He is pretty pleased. Here's hoping their work will make a big difference.
That's so awesome! My friend (Daisy's cousin) K has stage IV melanoma, so I'm ridiculously excited about the timing of this especially.
The real hitch for people is that the companies (around here at least) require you to pay cash.
Wow, that sounds so sketch.
Nora, do you need the info? hit me on my (new in 1 minute) profile addy.
Ugh. My face hurts with sinus whatever, and husband was up at 3:30 with work stress and I have to go back to the inspection place and yell at them and I am just a giant DON'T WANNA.
Wow, that sounds so sketch.
Not really, since I probably mislead you with "cash" -- what I meant was shorthand for they won't take forms of credit. You can write a check or use some other form of commercial paper, but the money has to be there.
I am arguing about facebook privacy settings with an idiot who clearly doesn't know how the settings work but thinks she does. I really should step away from this conversation.
Sox, that's awesome! Give T my undying gratitude for all of his hard work.
And it's not a trigger warning at all. I am still following developments in melanoma cancer research.
I got an amazing response from an idiot the other day. It boiled down to "So you think you know what my post means just because you read it? Well, go fuck yourself!"
It was one of those things you just want to cut out and pin somewhere you can get giggles when the world is grinding you down.
I'm supposed to be taking this Coursera course, and the video player is cranky indeed. I'm not used to homework and deadlines. The last thing I need is "the internet ate my assignment".
Well, she seems to have stopped arguing now that I posted a "can you see this?" post and she had to admit that, contrary to her statement, she couldn't see it.
That's so cool, Sox! I was just reading about that yesterday. (Why yes, I do follow cancer treatment developments rather obsessively.)
I've just spent the best part of the past two hours of my life on this, so here is my best-ever GeoGuessr (32394 points):

I got a direct hit! I didn't think that was actually even possible.
The last one took forever, but I got there in the end.
Can I stop now, please?
