pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

@aoc.bsky.social says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody."
"We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind."

My favorite thing about Mamdani’s victory is that it shows beyond a shadow of a doubt that progress won’t be curtailed by the centrists in the Democratic party.
The “moderate” candidate was also on the ballot, with endorsements, name recognition, and $$millions. And he still lost.

I’m stoked about Mamdani, but since I’m not an NYC resident I’m also extremely excited that voters in Aurora might have ousted an incumbent city council member who helped stoke all the TDA rumors

I blogged about standing on my apartment roof a mile northwest of this photo, on a warm September afternoon 24 years ago, trying to take in the fact that passengers had forced their own plane into the soil rather than allow this to happen.

CNBC: Is importing beef from Argentina a possibility?
BROOKE ROLLINS: Yes, the president has said he's in discussions with Argentina. It will not be very much. Argentina is also facing a foot and mouth disease issue.

Pseudoscience is popular in part because it seeks to confirm our beliefs.
Science can be less popular in part because it seeks to interrogate our beliefs.
Good science, like good art and literature, can upset the established ways in which we see the world.

Without an understanding of immune tolerance, organ transplantation will not be possible. Also, their discoveries opened avenues for cancer and auto immune disease therapies.

Stimulating immune cells in vitro is a common experimental lab model. We profiled 150K blood immune cells treated with 11 different stimuli to compare the effects. The data are freely available for researchers. See the preprint for our findings and to access the data 🧪 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

All jokes aside, I do find it oddly comforting to come across empirical evidence countering the “everything is over” narrative.

I have two professor colleagues who have faced threats and harassment due to the organization Charlie Kirk built, and they were not alone. We can denounce and loathe political violence without hagiography for its victims. This is dangerous nonsense.
"But I envied what he built. A taste for disagreement is a virtue in a democracy. Liberalism could use more of his moxie and fearlessness."

I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.
