Of all the things to be gleeful about, assaulting a minimum wage worker (I presume) has got to be the dumbest shit I’ve seen all week.

I always thought that quote was so fucking insane and it would drive me nuts whenever someone posted it to social media as some kind of inspirational meme. Too bad she didn’t have an alternative plan to use actual science to “disrupt” blood testing, amirite??

I finally watched an interview and read about this woman after all this fall out, and I’m fully convinced she’s crazy, off her rocker obsessed with the idea of being revolutionary, rather than having genuine concern for the science that will affect people’s lives in a real way. One of the profiles said that she’s a…

Another symptom of our media’s terrible, terrible science reporting.

My mom has been running lab diagnostics for an area hospital for decades, and when I told her about Theranos and what they were attempting to do, she was pretty floored that any venture capitalist was suckered into investing with them.

I’m a PhD in immunology/molecular biology, and my LinkedIn/ResearchGate/BioSpace is blowing up with Theranos jobs of all kinds for my field. I guess they finally are trying to get some real science in there...too bad that ship is going to sink harder than the Titanic.

Good news! The parts of Alexander Hamilton’s life that involved radical Islam and FBI surveillance have been cut from the play as well.

Life is complex. More than one issue can apply.

Thank you for this space. I just keep falling in love with you as a journalist more and more.

Persky made a controversial evidentiary ruling which allowed the jury to view seven photographs of the alleged victim “partying about a year or so after the alleged gang rape. In the photos, she is scantily clad, wearing a garter belt and what appear to be fishnet stockings.”

Or the people going on like it’s only his first offense, go easy on him.

In a general sense, it’s abhorrent that someone could commit this crime and not automatically get life without parole. But I have a feeling that any parole board 25 years from now would take one look at the crimes and slam the “rejected” stamp on his application so hard it would break the table in half.

Thank you. Came here to say how particularly repugnant it is for the guy whose corporation is known for devastating local hardware stores to have the chutzpah to complain about it being hard to start a small business these days. And for him to say that he’d never be able to start Home Depot these days? Well no shit,…

Hey, you know what else is bad for small businesses? Gigantic chain like Home Depot that move into mid-sized towns and drive those small hardware shops out of business.

RIP my brother your struggle is over.

What you really need to avoid is Chanel No. 1.

So I shouldn’t buy the new “Asparagus” Body Spray by Axe?

This is straight out of a Carl Hiaasen novel.

I’m with the author - I would have wanted to tell the guy he’d been seen, watch him deny it, then say okay, prove it’s not true, drink it all yourself right now. And yes I realize that’s not the right way to handle it, it’s just what I would have WANTED to do.

I’m already feeling old, and now these flashbacks to my youth are killing me. I was a kid when these were a thing, and I know that at one point I did own one with a flower or two on it.
