The irony of F1’s “green engines”:
- All race cars combined over a season: ~150 tonnes CO₂/year
- F1’s total footprint from flying cargo everywhere: ~250,000+ tonnes
Even if fuel consumption tripled using V12s, that’s <1% from the engines.
But sure, let’s nerf the engines.
The amount of misinformation spreading here is insane.
It's sad because this is directly playing with the emotions of real cancer patients and their families, giving them false hopes...
Let's appreciate the recent accomplishments without the sensationalism.
Let’s debunk this "miracle cure" list one by one with actual medical facts.
1️⃣ Breast Cancer: It isn't one disease. It's classified by receptors (ER, PR, HER2). We don't have a "cure," but thanks to Targeted Therapy and Mammography, the 5-year survival rate for localized breast cancer is now 99%. That’s progress, not a conspiracy.
2️⃣ Lung Cancer: There is no "pill" that fixes lung cancer. Treatment depends on whether it’s Small Cell (SCLC) or Non-Small Cell (NSCLC). Survival has improved drastically due to Immunotherapy (PD-1 inhibitors), which trains your own immune system to kill the tumor.
3️⃣ Colorectal Cancer: This is largely preventable. Most cases start as polyps that take years to turn into cancer. Colonoscopies are the "cure" because they catch it before it even starts. Once metastasized, it requires complex surgery and chemo not a "sudden" miracle.
4️⃣ Blood Cancer: This is where the photo in the meme is actually relevant. CAR-T Cell Therapy is a revolutionary "living drug" where we reprogram your T-cells to hunt Leukemia. It’s a massive breakthrough, but it’s expensive, highly specific, and doesn't apply to the other 9 cancers on that list.
5️⃣ Prostate Cancer: We don’t just "cure" this; often, we don't even need to treat it immediately. Many cases are slow-growing and managed via Active Surveillance. For aggressive cases, we use Hormone Therapy (ADT) and robotic surgery. It’s a managed condition, not a one-off miracle pill.
6️⃣ Stomach (Gastric) Cancer: This is often linked to H. pylori infections. We’ve "cured" many potential cases simply by using antibiotics to kill the bacteria before cancer ever forms. For established tumors, we use Targeted Therapies (like Herceptin for HER2+ cases).
7️⃣ Liver Cancer: You can’t just "cure" liver cancer without addressing the underlying cause (like Cirrhosis or Hepatitis). We treat it through Radiofrequency Ablation (literally "cooking" the tumor) or Liver Transplants. It’s high-tech surgery, not a hidden pharmaceutical secret.
8️⃣ Cervical Cancer: This is the closest we have to a "cure," and it’s been public for years: The HPV Vaccine. It can prevent over 90% of cases. Combined with Pap smears, we can catch and remove pre-cancerous cells before they even become a problem.
9️⃣ Thyroid Cancer: This has a 5-year survival rate of over 98%. Why? Because we have Radioactive Iodine (RAI) a "smart bomb" that only thyroid cells soak up. It’s one of the most successful treatments in oncology, and it’s been around for decades.
🔟 Bladder Cancer: We treat early stages by putting Immunotherapy (BCG vaccine) directly into the bladder. It’s a highly effective, localized treatment. For advanced cases, new Checkpoint Inhibitors are the current frontier, not a suppressed "Epstein" file.
1️⃣1️⃣ Esophageal Cancer: Often caused by chronic acid reflux (GERD). We manage it with Endoscopic Resections (removing the lining) and Immunotherapy. It’s tough to treat because it’s usually caught late, which is why "one-size-fits-all" cure claims are so insulting to the patients fighting it.
The Reality: We are winning the war on cancer, but we’re doing it one cell type, one clinical trial, and one patient at a time.

All laughs and jokes when a decision costs Chelsea the match in the 90th min but when we get a decision 20 mins in its then a travesty and an entire introspection of VAR.
Last season, David Brooks pulled Cucurellas hair to stop a counter, Robert Jones didn’t even call the foul until VAR told him to go look at it that it’s a red card, he went over, took his time looking at THIS, and came back and gave just a yellow card. Not ONE pundit said shit.
One VAR call goes in Chelsea's favor and hell broke loose.
Where was all this when Anthony Taylor was giving Tottenham a freekick when their goalkeeper kicked Marco Alonso in the chest?
Or when Mike Dean did not send the referee to the monitor after Marc Cucurella got his hair pulled because he didn't want to hurt the on-field referee's feelings?
Absolutely infuriating this.
🤷 Bruno Fernandes GOT a penalty for stamping the leg on an Aston Villa player.
🤷 Mateo Kovacic got booked (& sent off for second yellow) cos Granit Xhaka stamped his foot.
🤷 Harry Maguire and Naby Keita didn't get sent off for kicking Michy Batshuayi and Trevoh Chalobah in the groin.
These are just a few random examples and a lot more can be pulled up very easily with simple research.
It's always against Chelsea, and there's no two ways about it. As Jose Mourinho said, there is a campaign against Chelsea.
'We' as in the rakyat la. Lah ni pun kena cakap satu2 ke. U guys tak nampak the collapsing healthcare? The lack of resources to education system? Abysmal infrastructure and community that hinders a good quality life? Ni pun nak kena bagitau, tak hidup kat malaysia ke
This is absolutely insane:
Microsoft, $MSFT, and Meta, $META, have added a combined $550 BILLION in market cap since 4 PM ET yesterday.
That's ~$140 billion more than the entire market cap of Costco and ~$50 billion more than Netflix is worth.
We are so early in the AI revolution.
JUST IN: Bank Negara Malaysia has reduced the Overnight Policy Rate by 25 basis points to 2.75%, marking its first cut in two years.
The ceiling and floor rates of the OPR corridor are correspondingly reduced to 3.00% and 2.50%, respectively.

People voted for "better" gov the last time i checked. But seems like it is getting ridiculous and worse by days.
We have unfunctional opposition too. We dont really have choice in malaysia seriously
