  1. I’m a zoologist, and I agree!

  2. I’m so sorry. I’ve had mono that lasted a month, so I empathize. I hope you make a full recovery soon!

  3. 1:00 This conkwocket set us back by so many years, for absolutely no reason. Such a hypocrite too, considering what happened one month later. 45:40 Case in point. God, I'm so angry right now.

  4. Of course he doesn't. Him and his entire party don't understand science whatsoever, and they don't care.

  5. But you can't, because republicans hate science.

  6. Bush is such an embarrassment to the american people. Embryos aren’t conscious, it’s a blastocyst, just a ball of cells. It’s as illogical to say it’s a human being as much as it is to say a pint of blood is. Both human cells, but not even an irrational person like the extreme far right would say a bag of blood should be granted human rights.

  7. I feel like ditto would have been a better analogy.

  8. Many reasons. Unfortunately, science has become so corrupt that you cannot even hope to get grant money or get anyone to look at your resume unless you have published something big. The governing bodies that decide these things only care about how much they can profit off of your research. It's created an incentive for people to doctor their data, ignore results that don't support their claim, and fosters an environment where everyone's trying to step on each other to further their own careers.

  9. I know. As a biologist I think about this often, and I can't help but feel angry. The right has held us back for so long, and I fear they will do far worse in years to come. The world they want is terrifying to me, as a scientist as well as a woman.

  10. Just think, how far could we have advanced by now if not for republicans? We'd have clean energy, cures for painful, debilitating diseases, but no. I'll never understand why the scientifically illiterate are allowed to make unilateral decisions on science.
