Tried to be a mad inventor but didn't have the science so I'm a writer instead. A mad one! #OMP #OneMillionProject

Scientists in Japan have developed a groundbreaking treatment that could double the average lifespan of cats, extending it from around 15 years to nearly 30 years.

The key lies in a protein called AIM (Apoptosis Inhibitor of Macrophage), discovered by Dr. Toru Miyazaki. While cats naturally produce AIM, they lack the ability to activate it effectively. This deficiency leads to the gradual buildup of waste in the kidneys, the leading cause of death in domestic cats.

Dr. Miyazaki’s team created an injectable form of activated AIM that directly restores the kidneys’ natural cleaning function. In clinical trials, cats with advanced kidney disease showed dramatic improvement after treatment. The therapy works both as a preventive measure for healthy cats and as a treatment for those already ill.

If approved, the treatment could revolutionize feline healthcare. Commercial rollout is expected to begin in Japan as early as 2025, with wider availability projected for 2027.

The research has also sparked interest for its potential applications in human medicine, as the AIM protein plays a similar waste-clearing role across species.

If you want to be a writer, identify as a writer. No one is going to give you a certificate or pronounce you a writer. It’s something you choose, become by writing. Nobody can take it away. Not negative criticism, not agent rejections, not bad reviews—nothing.

@CoriWrote Unfortunately I can't seem to upload vids of them licking/grooming each other, but it's definitely a thing. Here's one of them snuggling together.

@CoriWrote Silky too. And Willow's fur has been extra shiny/plush since Georgie arrived last September. She grooms him a lot. Its ultra cute.

Its almost inevitable that makers of #StarWars porn conceived the character of Hands Solo. In no universe would that play on words not occur to a writer of SW filth! #inconcievable #YesHandsNoTypoThatsTheJokeHandsSoloGetIt?

Recent art. Pencils and finishes for faux cover recreations.

[OneMillionProject @JayGreenfield]

Two more faux cover recreations done today. Colouring of these and maybe another over the next few days.

Most of the time when I say I'm just about to do something, I do it a minimum of 30 minutes later.

Arrrgh. I said Ruby instead of #Rugby Now my tweet just looks obscure!

[OneMillionProject @JayGreenfield]

I will never tire of pretending not to understand what people mean when they say #hookers , and instead make #ruby references!

When I first met my girlfriend @KatelySamantha I was thrilled at her exotic location, and wondered if she'd been to the Emerald City or met the Tin Man or Scarecrow? Turns out she should have been typing Aus!! 😢 #Oz
