This is such an obvious point but it is so funny to me that Elon's free-speech crusade on Twitter lasted all of six weeks before he started indiscriminately banning reporters. Like what an all-time hilarious business story

Public Service Warning

Mastodon has a very big surge of new users right now. There's no way to tell if it will be sustained, but at this early point it looks similar to Nov 18 when Musk pulled the employee purge.

It is very challenging for system administration to accommodate so many new users. If your server starts to struggle, it is not broken and will get sorted out.

We're all in this together. It's our social network. Be patient. What we are building is amazing.

Base editing, where a modified version of CRISPR is used to make highly specific single-letter edits to DNA, has been used to clear the cancerous immune cells from a girl with leukemia.

Very cool and heartwarming story: https://www.bbc.com/news/health-63859184

Base editing: Revolutionary therapy clears girl's incurable cancer

New way of altering DNA is used to engineer an "exciting", experimental therapy for a 13-year-old girl.

Counting down the hours to #Barcelona and then #Lisbon. My favorite time to #travel is off season, when I can meander freely down side streets, stop in a little cafe or pub, and breathe in a new atmosphere (hopefully a virus-free one).

NOVEMBER MEANS PANCREAS CANCER AWARENESS!
My husband survived #PancreaticCancer for 8+ years. His only symptom was unrelenting pain in his upper belly. We were lucky his attentive GP ordered a CT scan, which showed an abnormailty on the pancreas. #PancreasCancer was diagnosed following MRI & endoscopic needle biopsy. He was scheduled for the complex #Whipple surgery within two weeks of diagnosis. The pain began in December, the CT was early January, and he was in the OR by late/mid January.
