Science@beehaw.org•Scientific fraud kills people. Should it be illegal?
15·2 years agoWhat’s the argument against it being illegal? This seems like a no-brainer.
I spent part of the last two weeks reading ‘Bad Blood’, a book about Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos, and how they mishandled and faked test results, creating problems for many of their customers. It just seems obvious to me that this kind of deception and fraud is particularly immoral.

Science@beehaw.org•‘Right to Repair for Your Body’: The Rise of DIY, Pirated Medicine
7·2 years agoIf you know how to fix this where I can get qualified competent medical assistance with my issues before they snowball together and murder me, please tell me how because I cannot solve this.
I wish I did, man.
Stories like yours are what I think of every time someone tries to tell me we have “access” to health care, when the reality is we were all sold as a commodity to the health industry by people we elected to protect us.

Science@beehaw.org•‘Right to Repair for Your Body’: The Rise of DIY, Pirated Medicine
10·2 years agoJust the thought of DIY medicine scares me, and honestly, it’s sad that such a thing has to exist.

Science@beehaw.org•Effort to ‘Trump-proof’ US science grows, but will it succeed?
9·2 years agoTrue.
If you’re a wage worker, though, America’s already lost. Every time I hear about the 16,000,000 new jobs the Biden Administration has created, I have to remind myself that most of these are second and third jobs, because the majority can’t live off of one anymore. In Mississippi, where the minimum wage is still $7 an hour, you’d need to be making at least $28 an hour to be able to afford to live and start a family, at minimum.
And that’s not even considering health care and education, both of which are cost-prohibitive now for most.
If you’re working for a wage in this country, you’re already living under fascism.

9·2 years agoIf I can’t be immortal, I would so love an extra 20-50 years of life experience if I can experience it in a healthy and fulfilling way, so I love seeing news stories like this.

I am so glad I didn’t spend the first 20 years of my life being convinced I was inadequate just so FB and Twitter and TikTok could sell me bullshit products I do not need.

4·2 years agoI don’t hate anyone in particular.
I do, however, hate “everyone”.
There are just so many small ways that people are insufferable.

1·3 years agoI am living proof of that second point, but my body always has a natural warmth, so in any kind of heat I feel like I’m melting.



Here’s a story for those of you who, like me, are generally all doom-and-gloom.
