Twice divorced, twice widowed, and looking for fun. Are you a buxom seventeen-year-old and also first cousin to my late second wife and also willing to ignore that I am nearly thrice your age and also in my direct line of sight?
One image to explain why I finally cancelled my Washington Post subscription this year
We’re absolutely going to have to have something like the Nuremberg trials
Multiyear funding is an intentional scheme by Russ Vought to follow the letter of the appropriations law while still absolutely devastating American scientific leadership
The USA is NOT "destroying itself".

Hey - remember Trump’s $10B defamation lawsuit against The WSJ over its lewd birthday card to Epstein reporting? It was just dismissed by a Judge in the Southern District of Florida who stated that Trump had not "plausibly alleged" the WSJ acted with malice or reckless disregard.
LOL.
What are the odds that the president can draw a clock? We should always be pretty f*cking sure the president could draw a clock.
This administration is causing so much unnecessary suffering and death - at home and around the world
This is horrible. We are responsible for uncountable tragedies
It’s pretty weird to take an extra deep breath because the president didn’t order our military to commit horrific atrocities and to then think “well f*ck, I’m pretty sure my country deserves some serious sanctions and whatnot for what our government is up to”
When a robber holds a whole bank hostage, but then decides to free them, he still goes to jail. Just saying.

I’m here for a minor and petty grievance, which is that Top Chef allowed a contestant to refer to chadon beni as a condiment - in which he substituted the actual fucking chadon beni with collard greens - and even put text up describing it as a sauce/condiment
I think you should instead stage a "strike" on reviewing. Said during my free time on a personal device and not as a government employee. You could also spam the shit out of Jayanta Bhattacharya with as many PIs as possible.
Five Reasons Why It Still Wasn't a Lab Leak
Time for some of that civil disagreement that the NIH Director can't get enough of rasmussenretorts.substack.com/p/five-reaso... Dr. A. Rasmussen took the time to put this together, to set the record straight. @angierasmussen.bsky.social Worth reading!
Our elected officials have an obligation not to sit by while a wannabe King plunges us deeper into an unwise and unconstitutional war.
We said no kings, not no spines.
They’ve tried to pitch this as being less restrictive, but it’s lipstick on a dumpster that’s on fire and contains the remnants of the US scientific enterprise
Good story in C&E News about damage to the scientific enterprise and loss of confidence from researchers about having a trusted partner in the federal government.
