The Right is wrong when they think our side has no Monsters, like me.
"intellectual Diversity Includes Idiots" - huh?
My goal is ending Intergenerational Tyranny- I will fail. And I abhor single issue posters.
Everything is connected to Humanity.

This is an up-close photo of Saturn's rings, but it also shows so much more. Those two little dots are actually the Earth and Moon as seen from over 1.4 billion kilometers away by the Cassini spacecraft. Everything you know and love is on that dot.

We are perpetrating an Intergenerational Tyranny, for no other reason than our unwillingness to suffer inconvenience.
WE are the inconvenience that the babies of today are suffering from, acutely.
I wonder how young a child must be for them to realize - if we were not here, their futures improve?

A note for those in the industry and govt wanting to have more people entering STEM fields, reduce the load of what it takes to do science.
At this pace, one does not feel like encouraging younger generations to enter the field.

This report in Nature on the costs of competing for & administering scientific grants is shocking: "In other words, European taxpayers will have spent more on the funding process than on the funding itself, and the scientific ecosystem has been drained." www.nature.com/articles/d41... 🧪

It has only been 1 year. I kinda wish I never knew about relativity. 1 more year until (D) can replace every single (R) on the ballot
Because even though WE KNOW this will all happen again. I do hope it's "too soon" for the fence-sitting fuckwit that is the American electorate to decide (R) is okay
