New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

“A groundbreaking microscope at Harvard Medical School could lead to breakthroughs in cancer detection... But the scientist who developed computer scripts to read its images and unlock its full potential has been in an immigration detention center for two months” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Oof. Yeah, it's just too much

I hate posting shit like this, but people are so entitled with their dogs, man. Fewer things make me feel like a crusty, old man than folks thinking their dog is a “good boy. He’s always got blood on his lips.”

Hey y’all, please don’t tie your dog for extended periods (or at all) to a bike rack, especially if they’re not socialized.

holy cow!

can't believe the vought dude is only 48

Cooool.

Dumb question but what’s the gadget being used there and is that sand?

Vancouver bike-lane filled with people on bikes

Never forget, when you’re being asked to prove that safe bike-lanes or pedestrian crossings across unsafe conditions are ‘needed,’ it's hard to justify a bridge by the number of people swimming across a raging river.

D.C. escalates crackdown on dangerous drivers Traffic deaths are nearing a 17-year high.

Amen! It’s gotten way too dangerous out here on these streets.

NEW: Republican Jefferson Griffin narrowly lost his race for a seat on the state Supreme Court. Now he’s asking that 60,000 ballots be thrown out based on a theory that an election denier said amounted to “voter suppression.”

Might just make an account for my fireplace.

Good news: DC's Attorney General, Brian Schwalb has joined Bsky. They often have useful announcements so local folks, you might want to follow.

Holy cow this honestly looks amazing ❤️🎛️

But I thought this was about state’s rights?

The run of record-breaking CaBi months is finally over! But a still very impressive 557k rides in November, a 55% increase over last November - that’s the largest YoY increase of any month in 2024, suggesting that the upward momentum is continuing

Glad you’re here, @defectedrecordsuk.bsky.social ❤️

Can someone build a bluesky equivalent to instagram now?

Anyone got any recs for:

Thanks!

Also, AITA for thinking the street preachers in Columbia Heights are way too fucking loud? Free speech and all that, but do I really have to walk through fire and brimstone at 120 DB every time I come through here?

Is it too much to dream of of a world where these parking spaces are removed in Columbia Heights and the bike lanes properly protected? It’s always such a cluster here, and for basically, like, 10 parking spots.

Besides being next to a metro stop, there’s a parking garage behind the mall…
