It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

JD Vance best watch this vid ‘cuz yesterday he bitched that his 3-yr-old was scared by a group of protesters shouting “Slava Ukraini.” The hypocrisy is staggering: This girl lost her leg in a Russian attack & is a symbol of the unyielding strength of the Ukrainian people who are fighting pure evil.

Saw two David Lynch movies on the big screen over the weekend and noodling over a short essay about why it's really important to embrace weird art right now. TLDR: Authoritarians always come for weird art.

The Cascading Damage from the NIH Freeze: “In six months, you see the firings and lab closings. In 2 to 3 years, you see a drop in PhDs. In five years, you see the noticeable loss in innovation and new patents. In ten years, you see the mortality rate go up.” open.substack.com/pub/davidpep...
