Cannot say anything anymore these days, because of cancel culture I am told

This is true. And yet The Royal Society saw fit to make him a fellow, one of the highest honours in science. And they have yet to comment on his role in the destruction of science in the USA

I think there’s a truth to the definition of economic anxiety, in the sense that economic and anxiety are involved. The subjects believed capitalism and patriarchy, made it financially but didn’t get super-rich/dominant, so now in their own world view they are losers and beta. And they get anxious

a priori, the whole “economic anxiety leads to racist scapegoating” always seemed backwards to me. my intuition is economic anxiety would activate the parts of one’s identity that are worker-centered. economic security otoh leaves people bored & aimless and indulging their other identities

This isn’t drugs. This is him assuming other people don’t work because he doesn’t do that much work. Very common bad boss behavior. bsky.app/profile/rcma...

A Polish acquaintance went to British Museum specifically to see this tablet only to be cheated by Ea-nasir from beyond the grave

Based on the last incident. Complaint: diffuse pain. Patient had scan, ACS rule out..Contact with nephro for admission coz of eGFR. Are the symptoms “of unclear origin” or did you just forget the basics (BGA, physical examination)? pH6,9 BE -27, AG 29. Guy’s dying, can have all the symptoms he wants

Elon is a Nazi AND consume drugs AND is losing control of his personal and public life for some obvious and some unknown reasons. The 3 things are connected but separate problems, drugs don’t make you do fascism, make you cruel & sadistic by default. “I was on drugs” can’t be his excuse at The Hague

This is @michaelhobbes.bsky.social ‘s discourse in a post. Infinite ink spent discussing the implication on freedom of the worldview of unknown and random 21 YOs, while THE WHITE HOUSE posts cruelty porn. Just weird, weird and evil shits, a post for the history books

between this guy and vance feels like we are seeing the first ever political movement with a core value of actively hating your own children

I earnestly think Kelis described this better than anyone else

Pundits get high on the possibility of having some deep insight that everyone has missed, that what you see going on in front of you is in fact shadows in the cave while they see the outside world, and they spend the rest of their days chasing that possibility in increasingly ludicrous settings.

One of the most frustrating things is seeing people suddenly try to stand up against oppressive forces they, themselves, help legitimize, without ever once acknowledging their role in that legitimization.

www.ilpost.it/2025/02/02/r... Ehi @ilpost.it, che mi risulti questo è il più devastante attacco alla letteratura scientifica sul tema LGBT dai tempi del nazismo. E non è ancora finito. Mettere l’accento sulla confusione, invece che sulla sistematicità dell’aggressione, è una scelta discutibile

News from dystopia: 4 people from airline staff, barricaded, sieged by 200 people looking for assistance, saying from the distance that everything is automated and they cannot help. Got to prove 4 times that the machines failed before being allowed to see human, that solves everything in 2 seconds

This but with enthusiasm! 😀 In a hospital big enough there’s nephro stuffs behind every corner. If you are looking for purpose and the feeling of being useful, come to nephro!

YET ANOTHER STUDY shows that a tiny number of children are diagnosed with gender dysphoria and an even tinier fraction receive puberty blockers or hormones. Anyone still pretending there is a "debate" about this is willfully ignoring all of the available data. gidmk.substack.com/p/gender-dys...

If a scientist who uses a microscope in their work never learns how to use a microscope, we find them a new career. If a scientist uses statistics in their work but never learns how to use statistics, we promote them even faster, and let them decide how other people should use statistics.

Also there is no value in winning every debate with trolls on the internet. In such extreme and clear cases you can just assume malevolence when people deny reality and move on. Stupid takes perfect to be dunked on make inaction and the “debate stage” comfortable for the opposition as well

The battle, for freedom and science, is centuries old. Nazi salute or not, their oppression always starts the same way www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...
