Dead Neanderthals set out for the solar system. Their ultimate goal is currently unknown, but it probably lies far beyond the borders of this galaxy.

We probably released one of the last EPs of 2025 and we probably also released one of the first demos of 2026!

Here are 3 heavy metallic tracks to start your year in style.

Ahead of next week's new episode of Under Review podcast, just a reminder of the fascinating first edition with my guest @deevybee.bsky.social as we discussed The Royal Society, Musk and academic fraud.

When there's no more room in hell... there's room in Oncotarget.

BREAKING NEWS!

Oncotarget publishes their first unaffiliated paper of 2026. A paper (per the authors) that was rejected by 16 prior journals. 🙀

Peter Thiel - sponsor Trump - noemt democratie een mislukt experiment en stelt dat vrouwen en ‘poor people’ nooit stemrecht hadden moeten krijgen. Dat schrijft hij aan Epstein. Die Thiel dus, ontwikkelt een deportatie-app voor I.C.E. en daar stroomt dus NL pensioengeld heen. Onsgeldtelt.nl : teken!

Basic questions like "how many participants are in the dataset?" can produce surprisingly different answers between analysts.

Results from students in my class in data wrangling in tidyverse, who are good at wrangling but still have to make semi-subjective choices:

Don’t let transparency damage science Stephan Lewandowsky and Dorothy Bishop explain how the research community should protect its members from harassment, while encouraging the openness that has become essential to science.

Onlangs ontving ik de 'Fluister Award', een glazen beeldje voor het beste luisterboek van 2025 volgens audioboekaanbieder Fluister. Hartstikke leuk! Ik dacht, nu zal de zilvervloot wel binnenvaren, dus ik vroeg hoeveel Fluister mij afgelopen jaar had opgeleverd.

As people in Iran intermittently regain connectivity, they are sharing that they feel abandoned. They have risked their lives in the streets, and the government killed tens of thousands of people. But instead of expelling Iranian diplomats and shutting down embassies, foreign governments are doing…
gene @magnetoakgae hi iranian here. the internet has been down for about 20 days now. i just got connected with von. the situation is bad. they killed almost 30,000 protesters. i've seen traumatizing scenes in the riots myself. please talk about iran. 4:15 AM • 1/25/26 • 2.7M Views arghavansallesmd We don't know exactly how many Iranians were slaughtered by their government. You'll see different estimates. On the lower end, around 5000 to 6000, are the estimates from human rights orgs that have verified specific individuals. On the higher end, in the 40,000 to 50,000 range, you see estimates based on eye witness testimonies, include those of healthcare workers. The government's own internal documents about how many they killed suggest at least 36,500. Whatever the exact number, based on everything we've seen, it's clear the government killed tens of thousands of people, mainly in two nights (Jan 8 and 9). To claim the bodies of their loved ones, people have to search through hundreds of corpses or watch a slide show with images of the dead. Then they have to negotiate terms, including how much they will have to pay (for the bullets used to kill their loved one), whether they have to bring pastries, whether they have to sign documents saying their loved one was a member of the security forces or killed other people. If they don't do those things, their loved one's body will go in an unmarked mass grave. It's a humiliation ritual only the most twisted of people would create. We don't know where most of the women's bodies are. They are not seen in the videos of warehouses filled with bodies. There are reports women's bodies are violently abused, whether before or after death, with perhaps their uteruses being removed. It's worth noting there have been longstanding rumors and concerns that the IRI steals organs to sell. But we really don't know what they're doing to women and their bodies. It's been widely reported they hired foreign militias to kill protesters. This may be part of the shift that was noted, that there wasn't as much an effort to arrest protesters this time as there was a coordinated effort to kill as many of them as possible. Security forces have previously entered hospitals to abduct patients, but the reports this time are even more extreme, suggesting they took patients right from the operating room or even shot them in the hospital to "finish the job." Some of those in body bags had IVs, EKG leads, and Foley catheters-those would all have been removed if they had died in the hospital. Physicians have been arrested and may be sentenced to death for caring for protesters. In addition, there are reports they are not registering those detained and instead are holding them in warehouses and killing them without even sham trials. And the international community is doing nothing. They just *expel* the diplomats of the IRI and shut down their embassies in Iran. They must freeze the assets of regime members and their families. This is the bare minimum, yet they won't do it. The world has abandoned Iranians, and Iranians in Iran are losing hope. Who will stand with them to fight this evil regime? 11

@mossknightcometh.bsky.social has a new song out and it's about the events in Minneapolis.
Unsurprisingly, it's full of fury and anger. It hits hard and doesn't stop, which is pretty appropriate, I feel.
Absolutely stellar song and proceeds go to mutual aid for folks in the city. 👍👍

(1/X) I have found ~2 problematic articles / day in 2026 so far Elsevier's 'International Journal of Biological Macromolecules'. The journal is an embarrassment. This comes after hundreds of problematic papers reported to them in 2025. Here is a 'worst-of' 2026 (so far):

#SpecialIssues have fueled the growth of some of the largest #OpenAccess publishers. Does a journal that allows a #GuestEditor to both plan a special issue and write many articles in it have a conflict of interest? #scicomm #peerreview @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...
Some guest editors pack special issues with their own articles
Thousands have penned more than one-third of a journal issue, raising conflict-of-interest concerns
