It had potential. Though I think technically Star Trek:TAS only ran for 1.5 seasons, it will have more episodes. Also, don’t forget the short-lived Star Trek - Klingon Cooking Show which was pulled before air. The “Cooking with Bloodwine” episode would have reminded us all it is a good day to die.

What have we lost in the last year Loss from a science perspective

In my last post of 2025, I review some of what science, and humanity, have lost in the last year

Love the detail. You can see Robby the Robot and Starbuck inside.

The CDC pages have now been hijacked for state sponsored disinformation. It is terrible to see this happening. This is ideology, unscientific, over facts, data and the scientific method.

It’s review season Make sure you submit your materials

Tis the season where the joy of faculty review permeates all of academia.

If you think that’s the most depressing part of science, you haven’t had enough grant apps rejected yet.

Thats looks chilly

Anniversary Post It's been quite a year

I heard you have the best and the biggest questions ever. No one could believe how insightful your questions are.

Have you no decency? It's time to start asking questions

My latest raving on leadership, decency and academia.

This is a great ending to a terrible story #Indiana #IU #Purdue #fascism

I sent you an AI dream interpretations but ultimately this comes down to guilt for not submitting more grants.

The Unscientific Method I have my hypothesis!

An approach to answering this question in my latest post.

The chaotrope in our midst Caught in a maelstrom of crisis

I want to go back to living in precedented times.

What can I say? I’m really asking.

With the current state of censorship, I'm really asking "What can I say?"

I’m fed up and I’m not going to take it anymore! Time to eat the press.

In my latest post I discuss the problems with mainstream media and how scientists might be useful as trained discriminators of truth and fiction.

Time is money And academia seems to be running out of both

Even if time is money, spend a little reading my latest post on efficiency in academia.

Agreed, but... I wish this sort of coverage had been more timely. We need preventative care or early treatment, not documentation of an autopsy.

Communication Breakdown Getting the word from on high.....or not.

Communication in science is critical. But top down communication in universities has been lacking.

The attacks on science are so unbelievable that I often think I'm in an episode of the Twilight Zone, as I describe in my latest post.

There’s been so much resistance to accepted scientific fact, it was inevitable that a group of people would question the benefit of breathing. In this post, I talk to some of these folks, as they hold their breath.

Defining an Evil Genius There’s been so much evil in the news of late, I thought I’d take a break from raving about the evil attacks on science (and scientists) and instead focus on some cartoon evil.

We've been surrounded by so much evil lately that I thought I'd focus on cartoon evil in my latest Substack post.
