@ErikJonker@mastodon.socialThe cover of the Lancet says it all. The Trump administration is destroying healthcare and science.

@davej@dice.camp“In research [doctoral candidate Colin Domnauer] is preparing for publication, chemical extracts from lab specimens produced behavioural changes in mice similar to those reported in human. [sic]”
So, is it safe to assume that the #mice perceived that they, in turn, were surrounded by even tinier mice? 🤔

@qurlyjoe@mstdn.socialWhat happens when you connect 400 car batteries in series and zap stuff? Anthony Drake will show you with this video. A couple years ago he hooked up 100 batteries. YouTube had some problems with that and almost cancelled his channel. He added some safety tips and they’re happy now. It’s 2 hours long and worth the time. It’s only ≈65V but he gets up to 150,000 amps. #science
