    Why can’t the current president get aggressive cancer? Everyone would love that (although I would pity the cancer).

      Cancer is an umbrella term for a huge variety of diseases and once you reach a certain age you’re likely to have at least one of them. It’s just not worth treating if you are in your 80s/90s.

      I kind of think the “fuck cancer” online discourse is a bit misguided since it’s the price we pay to have regenerating cells.
