Epstein Ave? Windsor End?

If only there was something we could have done (or not done) that would have helped.

Ok, but which way? The newsroom has been run by tories for a few years. The BBC regularly platforms climate skeptics and anti science activists on equal parity with experts and data. Question Time/BBC News gives disproportionate time to Reform and not to parties that have more MPs Etc etc

Yes, the panorama edit was dumb, but it was (1) well after the fact and (2) doesn’t negate the fact that Trump and his cronies explicitly formented a traitorous insurrection against the US Capitol to try and overthrow a democratic election. As determined by congress. Confected Telegraph fury

The nerve of this POS trying to associate himself with the commemoration of those who sacrificed their lives for their countries, while he simultaneously represents the twisted ideology that they fought to defeat.

Remembering David Baltimore (1938–2025): Cell www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... Has anyone else had a more accomplished career modern biomedical science?

Callers on @mrjamesob.bsky.social all had the same impression as me. The Faragista/Mail headbangers were hoping the train attacker would be Muslim (pref an immigrant). Necessitating the police to say his ethnicity. The real story is likely to be how poor mental health capacity is for minorities

arxiv.org/abs/2510.23833 @zachhensel.bsky.social has revisited Bruttel et al’s preprint and shows why the analysis of RE sites in SARS2 was deeply flawed. Spoiler: the sites are natural, the pattern explicable by recombination & the authors stacked the deck omitting some seqs and duplicating others.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... The swivel-eyed loon has fired the guy who runs the FBI jet fleet because he was embarrassed about headlines he used FBI planes to go visit his girlfriend. He’s probably just found out that he’s only seeing one, and they weren’t twins.

New TACO joint opens in Beijing

SARS CoV-2 mRNA vaccines cause Turbo cancer….immunotherapy Yes, they help stimulate innate immunity in those undergoing checkpoint inhibitor therapy to improve outcome Like to see how grifters like Malhotra, Dalgleish, the BSNow crew and of course JayB/RFK spin this www.nature.com/articles/s41...

podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/d... Really good conversation with @philippmarkolin.bsky.social on his book about the the science of COVID’s origin, then lab leak ‘hypothesis’ and its weaponisation by a bunch grifters associated with the MAGA movement and its equivalent in the UK

Yes, Farage is far more of a national socialist.

podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t... Great interview by @lewisgoodall.com with Neil Kinnock. As an 80’s child I remember that speech. I remember the ridicule that Kinnock was exposed to. But Lewis hit the nail on the head - agree with him or not, he would have been our nicest PM, and the best speaker

Poor Donnie. When you’ve suffered all your life to bring peace to the world and they give to a woman who promote democracy. Woke gone mad😂

When I was reporting in Sudan several years ago, a driver warned me not to tell government officials when I was leaving because the airport is where they stop and detain writers. So, yeah, this is a very bad sign. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... Incredibly disturbing. An academic historian whose speciality is fascism faces death threats from MAGA and is blocked from boarding a plane by ‘someone’. Rutgers response: 🤷

2012 Nobel laureate John Gurdon has died. His work was central to both the development of animal cloning and the possibility of reprogramming cells to a different state. A giant of cell and developmental biology. www.magd.cam.ac.uk/news/profess...

The relentless Jessica McDonald has spent two weeks and hundreds of emails to fact check claims about the safety of #CovidVaccination in #pregnancy made at the #ACIP meeting. She couldn't have been any quicker. A lie can get around the world before the truth can get its shoes on.

I get a little irked by headlines like this. Yes she was a leading ‘animal rights campaigner’ (conservationist really), But first and foremost Jane Goodall was a scientist whose years of careful study of Chimp behavior revealed amazing understanding both of them and insight into our own evolution

Jane Goodall, famous for her study of chimpanzees, has died - Sky News A hugely important scientist of the last century. RIP Jane Goodall.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... I’m sure he can round up a bunch of boys from Tommy Robinson’s crew to fill in. Just to be extra careful, he could dress them all in brown shirts so he knows who they are.

www.aftenposten.no/meninger/deb... Excellent and pithy rebuttal to Norway’s own Jonny-come-lately lab leak conspiracist who had developed a self-promotion cottage industry

I also seem to remember Germany trying out a few of Nigel Farage’s ideas too, and that not ending well either.

Delighted to have won a Wellcome Discovery Award for 8 more years of transformative research. We will advance our knowledge of innate immune mechanisms using viruses and chemotherapeutics as tools. Thanks to everyone who contributed along the way.

Another classic from Matt Ridley. ‘I don’t want to believe this nonsense, but because people who know what they are talking about thought my theory was shit, I can’t help myself’ (see resurrecting Polio vax as source of AIDS too)

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Nice idea Ed, but with what funding? UKRI paylines are ridiculous at the moment, and Wellcome have people applying for 8 yr grants that no-one deserves to the detriment of the number of young investigator and project grants.

Disney furiously back-pedaling after realizing just how much caving to the wannabe fascist was going to cost them.

Presumably Fox News will be firing Hannity and their other major presenters to abide by the new standard demanded by Trump’s puppet broadcast regulator

Looking forward to Nigel Farage, Toby Young and co condemning the arrest of people exercising their right to free speech. Wont be holding my breath.

Termite genomes shed light on the enigmatic deltaviruses, their ancient origins, and an intriguing example of co-option of viral genes by a host. www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Given that their spiritual leader, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, likes to masquerade under the ‘nom-de-thug’ Tommy Robinson (one of several names he uses), why do so many of our right-wing nutters have such a problem with others identifying as things they’re not?

Gissa job.

What I find odd in the X cesspool, is the number of people who have already made up their minds that the perpetrator is a 'leftist' and associate themselves with Kirk as being similarly 'at risk' for 'truth-telling' because of their own unevidenced beliefs. Including LLers at Rutgers University.

This was just last month and we have already memoryholed it. A cop killed by an antivaxxer.

The state of these idiot BBC political journalists. The His Majesty’s Ambassador to the USA is not a member of the government, no matter what he used to do.

Excellent article from Flo and Zach When you put all the mutually exclusive scenarios for a lab related origin together in one place you can see what utter BSNow they are.

An awful but necessary listen. This moved beyond national defence or even retribution for Oct7 a long time ago. There is no justification that can ever defend such bestiality. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

New @therestpolitics.bsky.social LEADING - however had you think things are in Gaza, they’re worse. We speak to James Elder from @unicef.org who has worked in crisis zones all his life and says he has never seen anything as bad we this “war on children” alastaircampbell.org/2025/09/152-...

It is difficult, if not impossible, to think of a biomedical scientist whose many diverse discoveries had more impact than those of David Baltimore. www.latimes.com/obituaries/s...

Malhotra the quack British antivax ‘cardiologist’ is fresh back from working with BFF RFKjr and chums to speak at our homegrown protofascist party conference What’s the betting the that the ‘eminent oncologist’ is the equally venal grifting quack Gus Dalgleish? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Straw poll for what is acceptable. If a member of your company or faculty with his professional position on his bio posted that senior female scientists weee unqualified for the job because of their genetic structure - and implying this is a common problem - would you want them gone?

Emily overcomplicating it. As I said, we’ve been cultivating Alex W as a source for sometime now. After all, he has always said that he’s a good listener….😉

Now that his cover has been blown by stable genius Bryce Nickels, it’s time to come clean. Alex Washburne has been a deep-cover zoonati agent within the BSNow/GBD setup, placed there by Fauci to undermine Jay Bhattacharya.

A case in point. Here Rutgers’ Ebright concurring with a deeply homophobic attack on ex CDC national immunization chief simply because he is both gay and thinks RFKjr is an antivax danger to the US. The photo incidentally is cribbed from a campaign to have gay men protect themselves from Mpox.

Popping on to X to look in on the lab leak glitterati in their time of difficulty.
