One thing that’s always been wild to me is there inability to recognize who the bad guy is. Jessup, Patrick Bateman, Jordan Belfort. These guys consistently idolize the obvious villain.
Fucking gross and disgusting
Cmon man you can’t look like all the members of Sublime were put in the machine from The Fly together and say this
things every single republican president of your lifetime has done

Had a really cool day advocating for microbiology research with @asm.org on the hill today. Staffers and the politicians I met with were very open and welcoming. I’m remain hopeful we can make a difference.
Oh, realizing this is referencing the found New Zealand mammal thing
Oh…it works. Just wondering if I missed some new thing rather than the firewood stuff from 2025

I have so many examples of students questioning whether I know enough about a topic to teach it. I asked in faculty meeting "who has been questioned whether they are qualified to teach a class?" The women raised their hands, the men didn't. It's definitely rooted in sexism and racism.
O'Neill, an investor in anti-aging technology who worked on HHS policy, would be the first non-scientist or engineer to lead NSF. His background will be a 'major concern' to the science and technology community, former NSF director Neal Lane told me.

Our story on the evolution of colistin resistance is just out on @plosbiology.org (journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... Evolution doesn’t happen in isolation. We show that competing fungi can rewire the evolutionary trajectory of colistin resistance in P. aeruginosa. Great teamwork with the Ernst lab

A billion dollars a day to commit wholesale slaughter, not a single fucking penny for health care. America, 2026.
I think there’s also clear evidence across universities of lower grad enrollment and way less spots available
