When you desperately want to starve Americans:

ESPN can keep their channels, just need FOX at the moment

Oklahoma scoring a TD on a fumble return but losing their best defender in the process is pretty much the Venables era in a nutshell so far

These goddamn double plays

JORGE POLANCO WALKS IT OFF

HE'S GOT 58! Cal Raleigh is unreal! 🔱

Very proud of this work led by Jenney Lee and our partners at BACPAC. More to come in this area as we build toward equitable prostate cancer resources and intervention in prostate cancer #pcsm

The new star in Oklahoma.

An undeniably beautiful shot from today’s Thunder parade that captures the growth of the city and what it has overcome over the last 30 years to get to this moment — and just how much that title means to OKC. (via the OKC National Memorial IG story; taken — I believe — by Thunder photog Jimmy Do)

“The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else." Beautiful statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman.

Out of an abundance of caution my Department of Public Safety is recommending that people do not attend any political rallies today in Minnesota until the suspect is apprehended.

This is a shocking development. Two leading Democratic lawmakers and their spouses in Minnesota were shot in their homes early this morning by a man possibly impersonating a police officer. This is the kind of violence we have been warning about. www.fox9.com/news/brookly...

Durbin to Bhattacharya: "I can't understand it. I disagree w/ this admin on so many things. But this is the one that really gets to me personally. To think this nation would walk away from medical research. For God's sake...cancer, your budget requests a 38% cut to the National Cancer Institute"

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

A 57% cut to CDMRP would be devastating to our goal to end pain and suffering for ALL cancer patients across the US #pcsm #bcsm

We don't spend a penny on marketing. It's all word of mouth for @costplusdrugs.com That's how we keep prices so low. Please spread the word !

so special ed programs are getting gutted because their internal documentation used the term "transition" when talking about helping disabled kids enter the working world. they're literally striking at that word wherever they see it.

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans. Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

"Many of my good friends have their funding withdrawn or frozen based on the DEIA wording such as 'diverse microbes'" a scientist reliant on federal research grants told me, adding NSF proposals with terms including 'disabilities' and 'female' have been put on hold

This is a rather telling statement. Nearly a third of women in Louisiana are Black. www.businessinsider.com/gop-senator-...

This profile has been scrubbed from the site. Rose Ferreira grew up without reliable electricity, immigrated to NY, then survived homelessness and cancer on her way to NASA. She was so moved by images from the Webb telescope she wept. This is what’s at stake web.archive.org/web/20231206...

If you are displaced due to LA fires, we all want to help. I have room for 8 people in Salt Lake City. It’s a 9 hour drive. I can pay for gas or flights. We all feel helpless and want to do something. Please reach out. Will help if I can.

More than 100 years after its initial review that blamed Black men, the Dept. of Justice just released its report on the 1921 Tulsa race massacre The report says the attack “was so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence”

Hey all, I’ve been co-coordinating a journalism workshop for DMV-area high school students for the last few years and applications have opened for next year’s program. It’s completely free. Please share with someone you know!

WASHINGTON (AP) — McKinsey & Company agrees to pay $650 million to settle US investigation into opioids work, court papers say.

Kicked off our 3rd and final day with the YUO program and a fantastic lecture by Dr. Christopher Kane. Congratulations to Dr. Kane on being the Joseph A Smith Jr Mentorship award recipient #SUO24

Day 2 highlights from #SUO24. We covered trial design for BCG unresponsive bladder cancer with @joshmeeks.bsky.social, upfront cystectomy in high-risk NMIBC with @vikramnarayan.bsky.social #vigneshpackiam & late breaking abstract on exciting intravesical chemo+immuno for high grade NMIBC

Congratulations to Huggins Medal winner Dr. Seth Lerner #SUO24

Some troubling epi stats presented today on worsening racial disparities in testicular cancer with increasing incidence among Hispanic males and poor survival among Black males #SUO24 #testiscancer

Sam Funt with awesome presentation of testis cancer masqueraders on imaging this morning #SUO24 #testiscancer

Kicking off day 2 with kidney cancer session. First two talks focused on improved nuclear imaging and AI for improving cancer detection. Anyone using girentuximab in their practice? #AI #brianschuch #nicholaskavoussi #SUO24

Major change in metastatic seminoma management. Who is using RPLND to manage stage IIA/B at their institutions? What is your criteria for patient selection? How do you balance decision with other effective options (chemo/rads)? #SUO24 #richmatulewicz #timmasterson @samfunt.bsky.social

Rich Matulewicz #SUO24 “Blockbuster New Therapy for Cancer…. Smoking Cessation “. @joshmeeks.bsky.social @yawnyame.bsky.social @wandering-gu.bsky.social

Prevention is a critical part of oncologic care. Appreciate Rich Matulewicz from MSK and Marc Bjurlin @uncchapelhill.bsky.social leading session on smoking cessation today. Great and practical recommendations #SUO24

Great to see my good friend and former SUO fellow Fed Ghali @uwmedicine.bsky.social @fredhutch.bsky.social on the stage! Should we be offering cystectomy in metastatic bladder cancer? Benefit likely in palliation but will this change as systemic therapies improve? #SUO24 @yalemedicine.bsky.social

Does adjuvant radiotherapy have a role in urothelial carcinoma? Appreciate the talk by @fredhutch.bsky.social scientist and rad onc @omarmian.bsky.social. Benefit likely in high risk pts and risks lower with IMRT. Expect good discussion on this topic during Q&A.

An update on adjuvant therapies for high risk localized urothelial carcinoma by Dr. Jeannie Hoffman-Censits @johnshopkins.bsky.social. Improve DFS, OS benefit TBD. Harms are overtreatment and toxicity #SUO24

Excited to kickoff this years #SUO24 meeting with my co-chair Amy Luckenbaugh! We are excited to present a diverse and exciting program at this years meeting @danlinmd.bsky.social

How often is AS/WW used in int risk prostate cancer? Leapman et al @yalecancer.bsky.social report in JAMA that AS/WW use increased from 5 - 12.3% from 2010-20, most in GG1 dz. Treat high-risk disease early, but offer AS/WW for low + some int risk cancers. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... #Overtreatment of #prostatecancer persists, especially using #radiotherapy. This continues to be the biggest barrier to equitable #populationscreening for #earlydetection. We must stop doing it. #activesurveillance @uroweb.bsky.social

Boomer Sooner!! ⭕️🙌🏿

First post on Bluesky and couldn’t be happier to have it be this. Thanks @loebstacy.bsky.social for visiting us at UW urology and for humoring me during our tour of Pike Place market. You have been an important role model for me and I’m looking forward to future collab
