WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 26-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 2.4 MILLION people in Sweden found NO EVIDENCE to support a causal link between acetaminophen (the API in Tylenol) use during pregnancy and increased risk of autism, ADHD, OR intellectual disability in children.

I have a bit of room again and I'm addicted to these, would anyone like an experimental speedpaint commission? I do these at a steep discount from my normal paintings. They let me test out weird styles and changes in my work! Part body is USD 115, full body USD 155

A full-body image referenced from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, of a corvid anthro character balancing on a rope bridge. He holds a jewelled sword in one hand and is holding a bag over the edge with the other.A strange painting of an anthropomorphic black jackal character, partly dissolving into the black and gold rippled background.A slightly surreal image of a middle aged Korean man in a green suit. He's standing in some kind of abyssal plain made of rippling black strokes. He leans on a cane, and the left of his face is dissolving into shards.

May I remind everyone that there is currently NO cure for rabies. May I also remind everyone there is absolutely NO scientific proof connecting ANY vaccine that we produce today with autism. This is true regarding vaccination in both humans AND in dogs. Vaccinate your pets please.

Worries about vaccination rates in dogs As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs - and their owners - becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in nationally representative sample of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

GOOD NEWS! Phase I clinical trial results out of Johns Hopkins show a first-of-its-kind vaccine designed to target common KRAS mutations was safe AND stimulated KRAS-specific T-cell responses in 90% of study participants who were at HIGH risk of developing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Pancreatic Cancer Vaccine Triggers Immune Response Before Tumors Develop

Phase I results show early promise for a vaccine designed to prevent pancreatic cancer in people at high risk of developing the disease.

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the FIRST time, been shown to PREVENT COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it may ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

Letting him hang in all that agony? How terribly cruel of you to allow such a fiery pride to burn without the sweet succour of release. If you do not attend to him soon, I fear his inferno may rage out of control. Surely that is not what you desire... is it?
