The Russian LGBT Network was forced to shut down after 20 years of saving lives. As danger grows, LGBT+ people in Russia urgently need support. I signed calling for safe passage and visas for those at risk. Will you add your name? a.allout.org/s/WNBqA/
Russia's crackdown on LGBT+ people is accelerating
Russia branded NC SOS, a group helping LGBT+ people and others escape violence in the North Caucasus, an "extremist organization." Act now.

I don’t need to ask a robot what I’d look like in the 80s, thank you very much! All I have to do is take a shower and dry my hair with a towel!

ACTOR’S DAY
The prolonged soliloquies. The exaggerated diction. The excessive ad-libs. The exasperating blocking. The deafening monologues. The chewed scenery.
The true horror.

The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time.

This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable.

The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.
