Am bear of science. Will bear for grant funding.

The only official information outlet for the National Institutes of Health.

Do not taunt happy fun bear.
Insofar as this is true (only a tiny bit), it’s because most presidents don’t have blatantly unconstitutional signature policies.
Bessent on tariffs: "This is one of President Trump's signature policies, and traditionally the Supreme Court does not interfere with a president's signature policy."

Look, MTG is still a horrible person who deserves to be forgotten and neglected among history’s pathetic boot licking henchmen.

But today she’s mostly doing the right thing.

I am also unwilling to take calls from ranting lunatics all day.

If you find yourself carefully parsing the difference between pedophilia and ephebephila - you are a fucking creep.

You like - or are defending others who like - HAVING SEX WITH CHILDREN.

Looking at you, Megyn Kelly.

Come on now. Which of us HASN’T been dragged into our boss’s office and excoriated for drunkenly jerking off a stranger in public?

LOOKING AT YOU, @chrispickett5.bsky.social.
The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

Schumer may suck at his job, but the GOP is fucking laughing at the ease with which they provoke circular firing squads in the democrats.

Focus on the bad guys: Trump and his split-colostomy-bag of a party.

Come at me swifties:

In her new single, she sings that her lover saved her from the fate of Ophelia.

Ophelia DROWNED HERSELF IN A BOG.

“You’re the reason I’m not killing myself,” is NOT A ROMANTIC THING TO SAY. It’s deeply insane and codependent.

It is a tradition of decent folk that when a shithead dies, there is a brief moratorium on reminding everyone what a shithead they were, because their family is mourning.

For fuck sake. Charging in to the obituaries with a “well actually” is not the moral flex you think it is.

Do your thing and sell this lady out, science internet.
I would like to report a miracle: as of yesterday, mats and scarves have all arrived 🎉
It's a month before SfN and I don't have my scarves again (despite ordering them vastly earlier this year) and the guys who cut the mats for my itty-bitty paintings just told me their mat cutter is broken

Of all of the addictive substances destroying lives in America, the worst is probably manosphere podcasts.

You know, all three stereotypical pillars of American culture: baseball, motherhood, and apple pie, all basically suck. And they are all certainly wildly overrated.

I am not saying a truck spilling a load of infected research monkeys into the Mississippi swampland is a GOOD thing.

I am saying it is the BEST thing. Go catch monkeys, you dipshit good ole boy pig motherfuckers.

Condolences to the PI at Tulane.

Everyone knows I am a nonviolent bear. 100% committed to advocacy, peaceful resistance, and coordinated action focused on social pressure and grassroots campaigning.

I am also just idly curious… how flammable are AI data centers? Is it like, a major problem? How are their mitigation strategies?
Amazon announces they are laying off the largest amount of workers ever in the company’s history.

30,000+ workers will lose their jobs.

This will be the roadmap for Trump: arrest pundits and scientists on fake charges for “supporting americas enemies”.

As a science bear from

All you want is your cubs to be healthy.

But until YOU know what it’s like for YOUR cubs to suffer from Muchausen’s Syndrome by Proxy, maybe take a break from judging me, KAREN.

Chip Roy is right: if you oppose Trump, you’re no Christian.

Christianity is a hateful, toxic ideology focused on white supremecy and utterly divorced from its long-abandoned origins.

Other religions are hateful and toxic for other reasons

Logging, fishing, truck driving, construction, and farming all have higher fatality rates than being a cop does.

Stop fetishizing “police who risk everything”. They’re fucking hall monitors with guns.

Where are my Notre Dame, Perdue skeeps?

How many toothless pig fuckers in your state think Indiana fought for the confederacy?

You know how you can borrow too much money and file for bankruptcy and discharge your debts?

Well, I’m wondering if you could, hypothetically, file for fraud? And discharge your … culpability?
