The thing where switching away from halogenated propellants let the f'ers put f'ing albuterol effectively back under patent protection has probably killed a *lot* of people in America

C'mon, look at that goat, this is clearly Evil Mirror Universe Alex Jones.

NGL, the intrusive "I shoulda just got a fucking HVAC cert" thought rolls through my brain increasingly frequently these days

Fine. FINE! I'll go to the gym, whatever. Jeez. Who designed these bodies, anyway? Did they plan for us to do anything ELSE? GOSH

Yup.

I would've been a lot more cavalier about wrecking my future if I had known it would be done for me regardless

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Has there ever been a more pro-disease political party in history?

If you're around the Milwaukee area, stop on by Vegga's Pub on June 8, have a drink, play some dice with the bartender, and listen to a song or three performed by Hunter Park (She Returns From War) and the inimitable Lily Slay (of the Royal Tinfoil). These ladies never disappoint!

i want a covid booster tbh

Star Trek: Differential Diagnosis

Whomst amongst us could possibly have predicted that the "industry" that exists to obscure drug transactions in ponzi schemes and avoid all existing financial monitoring and regulation bodies might not be super above board in their political funding activities either

Fun times watching a Chertoff Group employee draft a proposal for the DoD SWFT program using grok... Good luck with that, hope the review office doesn't mind the occasional detour into South African history/politics

It's always fun to be reminded that amidst all the truly amazing and delightful students we have the pleasure of teaching, there are some truly sociopathic little shits that I usually just try to forget exist

I think it's important to insist that the meaning of the Constitution does not depend on how racist the current president is www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/u...

So putting ketchup on the Eucharist is a sin now, huh?

I "get to" TA for an online, asynchronous 100-level physics class for the summer term, so I can't wait to see what sort of abominations chatGPT comes up with in someone else's field!

Trump is almost unique in his ability to cram all the bad feasances (mis, mal, non) into everything he does.

CBP has daddy issues

These dorks need to stop using AI for their biochem homework - a little bit because none of them can reliably identify inhibition types from a lineweaver-burke, but mostly because I don't want to read 5 short essays per student for 80 students when a couple of bullet points each would've been fine

When they said horse men of the apocalypse, nobody could've known they were talking about Pestilence's heroin habit

Zuck getting thrown by Georg Lonliness, who has 0 friends but demand for 8 billion

Fractowls are cool

Love this lady, also, it's hilarious that "ass" is fine, until you mention the hole, that's a bridge too far
