Hey all, I’m not posting in the Sunnydale Hellmouth anymore, but just popping in to say I started a substack, as I believe is a legal requirement for middle aged men. Warning: contains science, snark, light swearing. All free, for now. https://t.co/5iV43PMDdn

I think we lost. What was the point in spending the last 30 years studying so that vacuous windbag and ignorant hams would influence and shape medicine. Good luck everyone.

I mean, could Morgan even describe what mRNA is? Could that walking dead man Bryan Johnson?

Andrew Wakefield wrote a small, scientifically worthless paper pretending vaccines had something to do with autism. It turned out to be not just crap but actually fraudulent, for which he lost his medical licence. He's one of the biggest villains in medical history.

And yet we know that blue skies research is more productive and the ROI higher than directed projects 🤷🏽♂️
As a taxpayer (irrespective of whether you’re a scientist) would you would be in favor of more of the @NIH budget going to fund efforts to solve specific diseases at the expense of basic exploratory research? Which diseases?

Boy kings, we gave power to morally bankrupt children, who steal our work, and rob for fun. Historian spoiler alert: it never ends well for these unelected despots.
no thank you but we will buy twitter for $9.74 billion if you want

I wonder what Jordan Peterson thinks of this compelled speech.

POTUS IQ fetishism now joined by Veep. Neither of them have the faintest clue what IQ is nor how it is measured.
I’ve said before and I’ll say it again: the problem with Rory and people like him is that he has an IQ of 110 and thinks he has an IQ of 130. This false arrogance drives so much elite failure over the last 40 years.

I’ll go one further: the repercussions for people without mRNA in them will be extreme, and they will be permanently excluded from civil society.
I think every human being should have mRNA in them

💥🕵️ NEW: Disgraced former government advisor Andrew Sabisky - who quit in a 2020 race science scandal - has built a hidden network of 60 Tory researchers, think tank staffers, and journalists to continue pushing politics in a more radical direction. https://t.co/XVg9Clfxrm

We are a country where historically and scientifically illiterate ideologues are elevated to power by nepotism, lickspittle and cronyism. The upwards failure of these men of ignorance is depressing.
Many congratulations to Lord Young of Acton and the Lord Biggar CBE, who were introduced to the House of Lords today. We all, at Catholics in the Conservative Party, wish them well and they are assured of our prayers.

Andrew Sabisky, recruited by Dominic Cummings, sacked for grim eugenics views, operating in the shadows, surrounded by scientifically illiterate ideologues, pulling strings and courting favour. Unravelling Westminster’s secret influence network

I’m a biologist. This guys is doing some really ill-conceived things that are genuinely dangerous, utterly quacky, and he shows little understanding of how science actually works. A screen grab of an obscure journal article is not science. My prediction is that he is going to

I find this so amusing. The opinions of children. He ‘killed woke’. And later his dad is going to beat up your dad.
