"The United States is less democratic, less self-governing, more dysfunctional, and more corrupt than it was 20 years ago, thanks in large part to the Supreme Court’s rulings."

This is the most anti-science thing I have watched today. What is most shocking about this is all of these statements are being made without any scientific evidence to back it up. There are very few safe options to treat pain and fever in pregnancy so this is also an attack on women's health.

Now might be a good time to repost this story about what scientists actually know about the complex causes of autism, and what's behind the increasing prevalence. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

In 2018, Robert Redford recalled contracting polio as a child: “it was severe enough to put me in bed for two weeks. And because in those days, polio, before the Salk vaccine was discovered, what hung over your childhood was always the fear of polio because all you saw were people in iron lungs.”

Not being difficult here, but I wanted to remind folks that *none* of my current students had ever heard of Lynn Margulis. I mean, the endosymbiotic theory is at the center of cell biology. It's not their fault. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/....
