Here's a doozie for ya - they're pissed off because he's a straight guy from Florida in NYC talking to a bunch of Jews...
How much sense does that not make?
Ron DeSantis is set to appear before a friendly conference of conservative Jewish leaders in New York City on Sunday, despite efforts by gay rights advocates to get the event canceled.
LGBTQ groups, still raw over legislation barring instruction about sexual orientation to grade schoolers that DeSantis championed in his home state, are vowing to protest the Republican’s appearance at the Jewish Leadership Conference. Critics have derisively called it the “Don’t Say Gay” law.
New York State Sen. Brad Hoylman said it was “outrageous” that the governor was speaking during Pride Month and in an area not far from the birthplace of the gay rights movement in Manhattan’s West Village, like that means something.
He (Hoylman) called DeSantis an “outspoken opponent of LGBTQ equality who is trying to foist his agenda on LGBTQ families, and it’s extremely hurtful and distressing.”
Let's get something straight here (pun intended). I am not anti-Semitic, nor am I anti-gay. I am anti-stupid, though, and these kinda protests and these kinda people are just plain everyday kinda fuckin' stupid. Savvy, chemo-sobby?

Immunotherapy harnesses the body’s own immune system as an ally against cancer. The MSK clinical trial was investigating - for the first time ever - if immunotherapy alone could beat rectal cancer that had not spread to other tissues, in a subset of patients whose tumor contain a specific genetic mutation. All 14 patients who were included in this trial had their cancers go 100% in to remission. Their cancers were treated and cured completely. This is remarkable news.
Here's an overview of how this treatment works:
Immune cells contain a safeguard called a checkpoint, to prevent them from attacking normal cells. Cancer cells can trip this safeguard and shut down immune cells, allowing a tumor to hide and grow.
However, immunotherapy can turn the tables yet again.
An immunotherapy agent called a checkpoint inhibitor releases the brake on an immune cell, freeing it to recognize and attack cancer cells. “When the brakes are taken off the immune cells, MMRd cells look especially strange because they have so many mutations. So the immune cells attack with much more force,” explains Dr. Cercek.
Dr. Diaz’s pioneering research in treating cancer with immunotherapy had already shown that checkpoint inhibitors could “help people with MMRd colorectal tumors that have spread,” he says. “We thought, ‘Let’s try it before cancer metastasizes as a first line of treatment.’ ”

In 2018, the coffee chain opened its bathrooms to anyone, including non-paying customers. The move came after an incident where two Black men were denied access because they hadn't made a purchase.
An employee later called the police and the men were arrested for trespassing.
No charges were filed but the incident resulted in protests, leading the company to apologize and hold racial bias training for workers.
Now, Starbucks says this policy may pose a threat to employees and customers, CNN reported. They added that the threat of potential incidents from people who are mentally ill could result in danger.

NASA has announced it will begin a study of UFOs – a subject that has long fascinated the public – as part of a new push towards high-risk, high-impact science.
The space agency said on Thursday that an independent team would examine unidentified flying objects or unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) with a focus on identifying available data, how to gather more data, and how NASA can analyse the findings to advance scientific understanding of the sightings.
NASA’s science mission chief, Thomas Zurbuchen, acknowledged the traditional scientific community may see NASA as “kind of selling out” by venturing into the controversial topic, but he strongly disagrees.
“We are not shying away from reputational risk,” Zurbuchen said during a National Academy of Sciences webcast. “Our strong belief is that the biggest challenge of these phenomena is that it’s a data-poor field.”
While NASA probes and rovers scour the solar system for the fossils of ancient microbes, and its astronomers look for so-called “technosignatures” on distant planets for signs of intelligent civilizations, this is the first time the agency will investigate unexplained phenomena in Earth’s skies.
“Over the decades, NASA has answered the call to tackle some of the most perplexing mysteries we know of, and this is no different,” Daniel Evans, the NASA scientist responsible for coordinating the study, told reporters on a call.

Men who get erections in the morning are less likely to die from heart disease or strokes, a new study has revealed. Scientists asked up to 1,800 middle-aged and older men in Belgium how often they got 'morning glory'.
They found that those who frequently had morning erections were around 22 per cent less likely to die from the major killers.
