UPDATE: The government has not, as of 5:03 pm, filed the required daily status report. It missed the deadline.

Exclusive: US NIH scientists barred from attending conferences on their own time and dime Researchers at the U.S. National Institutes of Health have been told they cannot attend scientific conferences and meetings without official permission, even if they pay their own way and go during time off, three current and former NIH scientists told Reuters.

"We will never use this agency to censor scientists who disagree. If scientists are censored, we can't have excellent science."

-NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya.

I checked a couple of weeks ago, and I had an MMR booster before we went to Tanzania about 10 years ago, because it is a developing nation.

So now that's where we are, I suppose tourists (if any still come here) will have to get a list of recommended boosters if they visit the US.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

Maybe passion is overrated. Maybe you're too stressed to enjoy the things you would enjoy if you weren't stressed.
