("lads" being "people born with & still having a prostate" regardless of current identification)
I'm about to have my 5th round of chemotherapy for advanced metstatic prostate cancer. A close friend has had surgery to remove theirs today, and another friend in the USA had theirs removed on Thursday.
If you are 50+, then FOR THE LOVE OF WHATEVER DEITY YOU DO OR DON'T HAVE please get a PSA test.
Save yourself being in our position.

How to Reduce Formaldehyde Exposure in Your Home
The underregulated toxic chemical can be found in common household items from couches to clothes. We asked experts how you can reduce your exposure.ProPublica
This letter to the editor is interesting to me because this person really needed to point out the difference between the risk in the study and the “relative risk” (in the paragraphs after the one below) and after seeing how they used that to manipulate people re Covid I’m not interested in those numbers.
“According to Dr Barnard and colleagues,1 after a mean follow-up of 12 years, women with #endometriosis had an approximately 4-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer compared with women without endometriosis. The risk increased to almost 10-fold when the analysis was restricted to patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis and/or ovarian endometriomas.1 Consequently, the authors advocate for “improved ovarian cancer screening and prevention strategies among women with severe endometriosis.” However, Bretthauer and Kalager2 argue that “misconception and lack of knowledge among doctors and policy makers about absolute and relative risks obstruct shared decision making and hinder truly informed consent.”

1. Tumors are constantly forming in the body
2. The immune system normally keeps them in check
3. A virus that damages the immune system's ability to fight tumors is allowed to freely circulate
4. We see an explosion in the rate of aggressive cancers

Oncogenic potential of SARS-CoV-2—targeting hallmarks of cancer pathways - Cell Communication and Signaling

About oncology
In connection with the loss of my relative (bright memory to her), in the summer she died of cancer, I read the book “Life by Intuition”, written by a married couple, he is a physicist, and she is a psychic, took to treat patients with cancer in the last stages, and cured, but not all.
What I want to tell: cancer is a disease of the soul, which suffers and the reasons are always (in the vast majority) lies in family relationships. If a person is constantly humiliated, he suffers, his soul suffers and can start a mechanism of self-destruction, in medicine called “cancer”.
So, in order not to get cancer, there should be normal, healthy family relationships. What else is remembered: if a woman in the family suffers from a tyrant husband, she must leave him to survive.
If a person has cancer, he must radically change his environment and lifestyle and want to survive, fight for life with all his strength and then he will be cured.
In general, love life, appreciate it, fight and do not let anyone oppress and humiliate yourself.
Take care of yourself and your loved ones, love them. Life is the most valuable gift to us from the Universe.

Recently I read in a report from NASA that an astronaut who came to the ISS on a Boeing spaceship and instead of two weeks had to stay for several months, until February 2025, is losing a lot of weight. It's because of the extreme stress her soul triggered a self-destruct mechanism - cancer. Very sorry for the woman.

had i not had #LongCovid and #cancer, i would probably be freaking about now, but am surprised with myself that am relatively calm.
i've been +20 years marginalized for blogging about American fascism. what has me calm is that even back in January a lot of mainstream journalists and the whole Democratic Party leadership still refused to acknowledge Trump is running on fascism.
the fact that just days ago NY Times had to acknowledge it?
FUCKING FINALLY.

The key to the difference is lifestyle changes, with giving up #smoking is a key shift; but of course, especially in poorer areas services to aid giving up #cigarettes has been hit by funding cuts.
Equally, getting fit also isn't cheap; from #bicycles to #gyms, if you have no money fitness aids are out of reach
