The missile hit during the school’s morning session.
In Iran, the school week runs from Saturday to Thursday, so when US and Israeli bombs began falling at around 10am on Saturday, classes were under way.
At a point between 10am and 10.45am, a missile directly hit Shajareh Tayyebeh school, in Minab, southern Iran, demolishing its concrete building and killing dozens of seven to 12-year-old girls.

Grr and argh.
The people who make government websites generally tend to do a halfway decent job of meeting the spec, but they really really need to learn to push back when the spec is FUCKING STUPID.
Having just completed my "Annual Filing" with Companies House - and why is that even a thing, we're not posting fucking vellum to Victorian clerks who scurry up ladders to deposit the sacred paperwork in the appropriate filing cabinet any more - I got a new scary emai…

People were jumping into action here in Minneapolis — droves of people, comfortable people, white people — not in mid-January, but in •early December•. (And the groundwork started much earlier!)
Community meetings overflowing. Signal groups exploding. Observer trainings filling day after day after day. Mutual aid networks popping up like mushrooms. On and on.
Why? Because we saw brown and Black neighbors being dragged from their cars, dragged from their homes, stalked, terrorized, •kidnapped• with barely the slimmest shadow of due process or legal oversight.

-- but there are not enough donated organs for all of those patients.
Additionally, many people with liver failure aren’t eligible for a transplant if they are not healthy enough to tolerate the surgery.
To help those patients, MIT engineers have developed ⭐️ “mini livers” that could be injected into the body and take over the functions of the failing liver.

Injectable “satellite livers” could offer an alternative to liver transplantation
MIT engineers developed “mini livers” that could be injected into the body and take over the functions of a failing liver.

A cancer diagnosis can push people to crime
Even generous welfare states are not immune to a “Breaking Bad” effect
The television show’s plot is less outlandish than it seems.
Researchers in Denmark and the Netherlands find that the likelihood of a cancer patient committing a crime is 14% higher in the decade following their diagnosis than the baseline rate among people yet to develop the disease.

I think being an egocentric asshole as a service is finally falling flat
and people want to hear more about what real living is about.
