The title is a little pointed, but I am very serious here. Academics, medical researchers, and other organisations should not collect data on birth sex. It is rarely relevant, and it almost always leads to privacy violations for transgender people. Please share. I would like people to read this one.

Despite its fearsome reputation for danger and toxicity, fluorine is seen by medicinal chemists as an old friend. As columnist Derek Lowe explains, that’s because – like a criminal Godfather – it offers several benefits that no other element can match.

Fluorine makes you an offer you can’t refuse
What might we do if we had a new, electron-donating equivalent element?

A parody of public enemy's "Fear of a Black Planet" album. Instead of Public Enemy, the name of the group is Public NMR. The album title is "Fear of a quenched magnet".  The original cover had a space view of the earth and the public enemy logo (a rifle scope on a person).  The parody cover has replaces the picture of the earth with a quenching NMR spectrometer.  And instead of the public enemy logo, a rotating frame showing a polarization vector is drawn.
