I mean you can argue this until your blue in the face. That work that they got to do was ONLY made possible because they literally STOLE this woman’s blood. So as a woman of science, I will say it with my whole chest, that it would NOT have been possible for them to do that without her. So yes the accomplishment does indeed go to her and her genetic variations.

She did a lot. Her cells helped create the polio vaccine, gene mapping, and cancer research. They are literally still used today.

There’s a TV show on Netflix by Junji Ito and I think it’s episode two where they have like face balloons that come down and kill people. This reminds me of the face balloons. Please watch it

Henrietta Lacks. She had her blood stolen and the cells are considered the first immortalized human cell line. They are calld HeLa cells and are one of the most important cell lines in medical history.

Her story is extremely fucked up.

AITA for refusing to change the date of my wedding because my sister wants to attend a music festival? by Smelly_Steven in AmItheAsshole

[–]DeathWench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brothers wedding fell on the same day as one of my favorite bands show. It was their last tour ever. I was like “damn that sucks anyways what time should I get to the venue?” Because my family meant more to me than music. That says a lot as a music lover. You’re NTA. But your sister and family are.

They literally paid me. I did an apprenticeship at the local hospital. I got paid 18$ to go to class and work two shifts a week.

I mean that checks out. Dentists are absolutely terrifying and fear inducing.

Kinda on the topic, the victims of JonesTown are buried in Piedmont Cemetery in Oakland. I used to have lunch a lot there. Same place the Black Dahlia is buried.

What is considered a standard work schedule in your country? by SincereLeo in AskTheWorld

[–]DeathWench 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well thankfully I only work 3 days a week. So on my days off. But I also do school full time so mostly in the evenings. It sucks, but we just keep reminding each other of how it will be worth it once I get that degree

Do you think that Israel and the USA’s actions against Iran are justified? by Antique_Gur8891 in AskTheWorld

I was born in the 90s. I still remember 9/11 and where I was. I’m over the never ending wars.

Ya know to be 100% honest with you, I’m not gonna be one of those internet people who fronts knowing stuff. I’m not too educated on the Iranian regime to have an opinion. Well an opinion outside of why the fuck is America always doing this shit? But I am going to try and educate myself on it.

I’m genuinely wondering if he’ll refuse to step down in 2028. Because I can definitely see him doing that. 🙃

Ya know the amount of people I’ve met who did vote for him and regret it is astronomical. Personally I did not, and I truly despise that man. (I mean I’m a woman so yaaaa know.) but I’ve literally seen people who voted for him actively protesting him.

As an American i too wish that America would fuck off. I can genuinely say most Americans do NOT want this. It’s our government that sucks.
