It is sad that even basic research needs to be defended with utility. For me, basic research is in the same category as art: civilized societies can't do without it, because we all want to know who we are and what our place in the natural world is -- questions that only science can answer.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.
Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!
NO.
Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.
PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.
This is also about autism.

Trump and Elon Musk have wiped out the national database of police misconduct. Nearly 150,000 records of misconduct by federal officers erased, like it never happened.

It doesn't need to be said, but to be clear: this is odious, hateful garbage and disrespects the sacrifices and service of trans service members. It's just the beginning and we need to stand up as allies for those affected.
Overnight, the Dep't of Defense, implementing Trump's anti-transgender military executive order, issued a policy banning all trans people who are living as themselves from joining or continuing to serve in the military. What's more, “separation actions” are to begin within the next two months.
Military issues policy banning trans military service, implementing Trump EO
The policy was filed Wednesday evening in a challenge to the executive order and will be subject to legal challenges.
