I have space on board Nora Simrad in the Philippines in April and May. It could be just a sailing trip with meeting some awesome locals or it can include in depth discussions on plastic pollution science (general or methods), ocean health and climate change. The yacht is a 14.3m expedition sailing yacht. Super fast (12knots) and comfortable. If you are interested we can chat about what interests you. #science #microplastics #sailing

I wonder. Was it pre-print? Wondering if thats where they got the paper name and your contact. Or Occam's razor. Elsevier found a new source of income, selling our data

Seems simple enough. Deny entry to anyone from DHS. Finding undercover agents will be harder but if they are caught telling lies on visa applications or landing cards it will be espionage.

Is it that hard to build a browser? Cant be too hard, Microsoft even managed it. Must be someone has built an open source browser not based on either of them.

How does it slip through? I am not a programer but it seems like a security issue if functional codes can be injected without you knowing. What else has slipped through?

It is cruel. In Sweden they reinstated hunting because commuters on the trains saw starving animals in the winter. Deer management is a necessity. Humans took away the natural predators. Either bring them back or take responsibility and deal with it.

I have had a couple of "journalists" from Palestine follow me. No followers. I wonder if they think they can monetise mastodon.

I am not sure that is entirely true. Not for everyone. Not for every instance or hobby. Mastubation for example is not done so other people think of them as a wanker 😁

Holy shit. All mentions of LGBTQ and Trans must be removed from scientic papers fron US science. CDC made a statement. Frightening stuff. #science #LGBTQ #gender #Trans https://insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-news-cdc-orders-mass-retraction?trk=feed_main-feed-card_feed-article-content
