We should all write papers like this: arxiv.org/pdf/1804.02767

Academic publishing is perhaps the greatest scam perpetrated on intelligent people
1) Write grants (unpaid)
2) Do research
3) Write papers
4) Peer review (unpaid)
5) PAY up to $12K to publish
6) Need publications to get grants (back to step 1)
Publishers: 38% profit margins

We would also wish that the drone attack on Poland was a mistake. But it wasn’t. And we know it.

Two years ago: @sikorskiradek just outside of Bakhmut, well within russian drone and artillery range, right after delivering a pickup truck to Ukrainian soldiers on the frontline
How's that for a small man, @elonmusk?

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.
Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President @ZelenskyyUa.
We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

A dementia drug based on a chemical discovered in an exotic type of snail was just invented. Studying the reproductive habits of insects has allowed us to increase crop yields.
You think you’re making a good point but you don’t even have the capacity to realize how dumb you are.

People tend to think there are more immigrants in their country than there really are.
In the United States, for example, the average person believes that 33% of people were not born there. However, official estimates from government agencies show that the figure is just 15% — less than half as many.
In Japan, people guess that 10% of the population are immigrants, but the accurate figure is around 2%. For every 5 immigrants people think exist, there is only one in reality.
As the chart shows, this mismatch is common everywhere. The data comes from the 2023 Ipsos Perils of Perception report.

Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv. One of the most important CHILDREN’S hospitals not only in Ukraine, but also in Europe. Okhmatdyt has been saving and restoring the health of thousands of children.
Now that the hospital has been damaged by a Russian strike, there are people under the rubble, and the exact number of casualties is still unknown. Right now, everyone is helping to clear the rubble – doctors and ordinary people.
Russia cannot claim ignorance of where its missiles are flying and must be held fully accountable for all its crimes. Against people, against children, against humanity in general. It is very important that the world does not remain silent about this now, and that everyone sees what Russia is and what it is doing.

A platform for efficient establishment and drug-response profiling of high-grade serous ovarian cancer organoids. A collaboration btw @WennerbergLab @wojtsen & colleagues @Dev_Cell #cellbio2023 hubs.li/Q02bD5WD0
Many thanks for the opportunity to speak in this fantastic forum! Some of the organoids from our recent Dev Cell paper can be accessed through @AuriaBiopankki. Check out the paper here: cell.com/developmental-cell/…
Wonderful Syndicate talk by @wojtsen on the development of ovarian organoids. Tour de force! Wojtek is sharing his organoids with the broader research community through the Auria Biobank: auria.fi/en/

It's 2023, 109 years after WW1 started, yet the pre-WW1 imperial borders are still visible on the election map of Poland - and on many others, for that matter.

Just to clarify my thoughts in case anyone is unclear.
1. Most Palestinians are not terrorists.
2. Most Israelis are not warmongers.
3. The Israeli government does oppress Palestinians.
4. Hamas are blood thirsty terrorists who would wipe out the Jewish population if they could.
