This is a picture of a person dressed as an infected person from the video game/tv show The Last of Us. Their face is covered by a mask with layers of mushrooms, and their clothes are ripped, displaying more fungus growing through their skin.

My kid made their own Last of Us infected costume, continuing their streak of creepy homemade Halloweens #gothkidparenting

Did I mention that I ran 22 miles of a trail relay in the mountains this weekend?

I really thought hard about your Cajal or his image of a pyramidal neuron, but I think next up will be some Flemming and Boveri mitoses.

Your tattoo may be nerdy, but is it this nerdy?

No, it’s definitely not the worst, but it was a way of pushing boundaries with female trainees, that gives me the ick to think back on.

I was chatting with someone this week about how having a retreat at Wilbur is something that is so f’ed up in retrospect.

I recently joined a gym, and to my horror watched dudes go into the sauna straight from their workout, no shower or even a change of clothes. There’s not enough red cedar in the world to mask that funk. My wife saw and smelled the same. So, this isn’t just a guy thing.

Also does anyone have a preference for very inexpensive LED fluorescent light sources? She does have access to a 3D printer and small amounts of money for Thorlab parts.

I'm trying to help a high school teacher get an old Nikon E600 running for fluorescence imaging. Does anyone know if there are specs floating around for printing an adapter(s) that would allow it to take a standard LLG? She really wants to avoid having to go back to using Hg lamps.

I left the UK, having weathered the Scottish Independence Referendum and before Brexit, only to end up with Trump 6 months later.

Congrats on dodging the bullet. It's too bad we have to be the cautionary tale.

There is the third option - that there are two separate contingents of the American far right who view a total societal collapse as the only way to set aside constitutional democracy.

Sadly we’re not looking at a dimeric complex. Many more steps to come.

These tariffs are going to be a boon for the domestic production of shit-covered rocks. Two startups in the field got their pitchbooks in front of Andreessen-Horowitz this morning .

We appreciate your efforts. My brother has been hitting up cable news and newspapers to let people know what will happen when you hollow out the CDC.

Opinion | When the government becomes a health misinformation superspreader Until I left last week, I led the CDC’s public health messaging. Now we need something to replace it.

This is what my brother was seeing as the comms director at the CDC until his resignation last week. It underlies the need for effective shadow agencies who can get real information to the public and a media willing to listen to them above the propaganda. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
