Nothing like a good little recession to reign in inflation. And remember what Nixon said: “…what this economy needs is a good little war.”

Someone much smarter than me pointed out that these diseases are often extremely bad for fetal development, can cause miscarriage, and can even impact future pregnancies. It’s yet another way in which that the Increased Birth Rate gang is actively working against their own interests.

Zelensky found out what it was like to be a US governor in a blue state asking Trump for medical supplies during the pandemic. Or disaster relief after a wildfire or storm. It’s not his money, but he fully expects you to beg and plead for it and tell him how wonderful he is.

I currently have two fully-funded PhD opportunities in my lab - both providing a chance to work on the incredible LEAF data set that we have been collecting the last couple of years (220 children followed longitudinally from 10-30 months on measures of attention and early EF). Please share!

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

I wonder if spreading extremely encouraging experimental results on helping treat pancreatic cancer with *gasp* mRNA vaccines may help people who have villainized them come around. This is a good press release on the study and links to the Nature paper. www.mskcc.org/news/can-mrn...

Dear @maritstilesndp.bsky.social
Can we please campaign now on cancelling the Starlink contract in favour of the Canadian alternative Telesat?
This change will save money and remove a risk to our national security.

It has begun: my department was in negotiations with an outstanding scientist for a faculty position. That faculty candidate has now withdrawn citing political upheaval, and is strongly considering moving her career to Europe.
