The Epstein academic fallout just keeps getting weirder. A professor wrestled a journalist to the ground for asking too many questions:

I could have revealed this before the preprint went up I guess, but as a lore drop, one bit of temporary psychosis that’s struck over the last two months of writing is that I keep singing “book chapter” to the tune of “Boy Problems”

NEW‼️ For the forthcoming Pandemic Agreement travaux préparatoires edited by @alexandraphelan.bsky.social, we did a deep dive on how experts and evidence shaped the negotiations. What we found is a microcosm of global health: limited time, high stakes, and familiar shady actors like Big Pharma. (1/3)

My favorite exchange on Twitter in the history of the site

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.” The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there. jessica.substack.com/p/theyre-com...

hey man no offense but this is the most outrageously bad idea i've seen a climate scientist do since ******* ***** did his stupid blog

late night press release edits mean late night mcflurry

if we're friends and you pronounce pecans this way you need to tell me in the replies of this post

Something I abruptly remembered today is that all these men are insisting they just wanted Epstein to fund their research, but we know from a few years ago that at his dinners with scientists, Epstein used to get bored and blurt out “what’s that got to do with pussy???”

These men out here sending emails from their university accounts being like “hello mr sex crimes I’ve been thinking about it and we should bring back the word shrew ok gotta go to my disciplinary hearing byeee”

nothing I can say that isn’t a terms of service violation

The RCPs are actually the perfect microcosm of futures science, because they’re specifically designed with the instructions that (1) you must not assign probabilities to one over the other, unless (2) you are a man who loves to argue, in which case it is actually very important that you do so

I’ve said this before but Rupauls Dragrace would be a beautiful name for a drag queen

Oh so when political scientists reject the null hypothesis 98% of the time it’s systematic under-reporting of negative results, but when I’m right 98% of the time, I need to “bring a better attitude to couples counseling”?

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

NEWS: Hartford, Connecticut says it will "immediately" terminate ICE's long-running parking contract with the city. A constituent raised concerns with the ICE contract in the past two weeks, said Cristian Corza-Godinez, Hartford's deputy chief of staff. Full story: readsludge.com/2026/02/11/t...

Maybe I’m dumb (I am) but I think that lane is being barreled down by a lot of buses filled by great people who will destroy or take over (don’t care which) the Democratic Party. Seems like this moment contains incredible hope/promise alongside the horrors.

I realize that Neil DeGrasse Tyson never really faced meaningful professional consequences for the sexual assault allegations, but in a year that is sort of defined by conversations about powerful men in academia being involved in horrible things, why is he keynoting ... a global health conference

shooting up contraband cancer mRNA vaccine behind the Cyber Arby’s in 2034. the Ring camera on the Wells Fargo across the street recognizes my shape using LIDAR and releases an HHS sanctioned Bobby’s Bullet Buddy drone that shoots each of my nuts clean off one at a time

It really is funny watching AI people talk about AI as intelligence. Like Jim Henson telling everyone on Sesame Street how scared he is of "the thing that lives in the can."

Again it’s important to remember the context of these chats is that a woman was shot five times in her car as she was attempting to donate clothes at a church.

By the way, STEM education is literally being slashed and REDIRECTED to AI. www.edweek.org/policy-polit...

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

Kinda amazed this post prompted multiple wellness check-ins

NEW: The FDA just shot down Moderna's new flu shot. From me: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Extremely funny that the U.S. is going to become a zombie patent monopoly, all the mRNA tech in the world and none of the societal benefits, transnational corporations giving that shit to Canadians like Halloween candy as we try to cross Niagara Falls by barrel like it’s 1832

All of the countries that signed the global health MOUs thinking they were giving up 25 years of samples and sovereignty for the mRNA vaccines of the future, watching the FDA decline an mRNA influenza vaccine like 🫩
