Happiness is an empty beach, the wind in your ears, your best friend by your side, and 0/8 feet on the ground
These are perfect for applying soy sauce to everything in the vicinity except the food you want it on.

Just published in @JNCI_Now led by @lateuwen and in collaboration with @ChernyNathan.
We provide specific recommendations for improved adverse event reporting in cancer clinical trials. For a true shared decision making, these items are necessary, not “good to have”.

How Do I Treat the Very Elderly With Advanced Bladder Cancer as We Have so Many New Agents? Co-authored by @Prof_IanD.

Actual exchange:
@Google, confidently: you researched estrogen therapy for #ProstateCancer and were instrumental in the PATCH trial.
Me: Absolutely not true.
G: Yes sorry, I made that up.
Me: Well, don’t do that.
G: I can’t help it.
So yes, if you’re wondering: we’re screwed.
Reviewing a paper, found an odd reference. Could not find paper on journal web site, Google, PubMed.
Asked @GoogleAI: is this paper real?
G: Yes it's real, look at journal web site
Me: the DOI goes to a different paper
G: Yes I was wrong, it's typical of an AI hallucination

Once in a while I get to read an article so good that I hope the rest of the world also reads it. Go home, drink the good wine, and read this. Superb editorial from @Prof_IanD : ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/OP-…

🏃♂️ Are we doing enough to make exercise part of supportive care for advanced prostate cancer?

Prevalence of meeting aerobic physical activity and resistance training guidelines in advanced prostate cancer: a descriptive study of racial and regional disparities in the IRONMAN💪 registry
In 2,485 participants from the international IRONMAN registry, 58–63% met aerobic activity guidelines, but only 19–23% achieved recommended resistance training levels. Participation was particularly low in African 🌍 regions, where just 0–3% met resistance training guidelines.
➡️ Black participants and those from Africa had lower odds of meeting aerobic activity recommendations.
✅ The findings highlight important geographic and racial disparities and the need for tailored exercise strategies in advanced prostate cancer care.

Predicting docetaxel benefit with a genomic classifier in #mHSPC. @ChrisSweens1 @SAiGENCI joins @TDorffOnc @cityofhope presenting a Decipher® genomic classifier analysis of the ENZAMET trial, applying the 22-gene assay to determine which patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer benefit from adding docetaxel to ADT + enzalutamide. #WatchNow > bit.ly/4oGSSZf @Decipher_VCYT @Veracyte

Ok, who has the most mortifying typo in an email/text?
Please show your work.

What utter bullshit.
We have eliminated cervical cancer in Australia because of this extraordinary vaccine.
Take NO NOTICE of this charlatan.
RFK Jr: “The Gardasil HPV vaccine — is 37 TIMES MORE LETHAL than the cancer it claims to prevent.”
“Gardasil is the single worst mass vaccine that we’ve ever seen. It targets millions of pre-teens & teens, whose risk of dying from cervical cancer is ZERO. Nobody in their right mind would ever take this vaccine if they actually read the clinical literature.”
Death rates in the Gardasil trials were 37 times the death rates for cervical cancer.
Your child is 37 times more likely to DIE from the shot than from cervical cancer itself.
And here’s the criminal part:
It was NEVER tested against a true inert placebo. Merck ran the studies, Merck paid for the studies, Merck decided what injuries were “just coincidences.” The control group got aluminum neurotoxins — the same injuries as the vaccine group — so Merck wrote them all off. No science. No safety. Just profit.
This is being pushed on our kids while Big Pharma laughs all the way to the bank.
Read the clinical data. Say NO to Gardasil.
Protect your children before it’s too late.
The new reformulated Gardasil-9 HPV Vaccine used Gardasil-1 HPV Vaccine as the placebo in clinical trial.
Ingredients in Gardasil-9 HPV Vaccine:
9 strains HPV proteins(found to contain DNA fragments)
Aluminum
Polysorbate 80
Sodium Borate(Borax)
GMO Yeast Protein(Saccharomyces Cerevisiae)
L-Histidine

I was asked to review a paper. The authors came from a country where English is not the first language. The paper was a long detailed narrative review written in impeccable English, well-structured, and all the content seemed correct. It would be a great resource if published.
