This video, for example, shows a Norway lemming's reaction to a domestic housecat, and you can see how confused the cat is by a rodent that chases it. I am only sharing this because neither animal is harmed & you can see the power of Lemming Berserker mode to confuse predators.

The filmmakers of 1958 Disney documentary "White Wilderness" imported lemmings to a location in Canada & forced them over a cliff, creating an enduring myth of lemmings driven to suicide. But the Norway lemming (Lemmus lemmus) has a new take on that myth: They go Viking BESERKER.

The whole "he hates women so much he must be gay" thing deflects from how lots of men who are married to women, dating women, and are attracted to women also really hate those women

Some conservatives are closeted but when an alt-right guy is talking about women in a really demeaning way it's usually because he's a misogynist and not because he's secretly gay

if youre a democratic nation things like bodily autonomy, gay rights, trans rights, etc really need to be written into your constitution in no uncertain terms bc it is vital to make people understand that the people attacking those things are always *always* attacking the fabric of society

Political litmus tests will be used to exclude individuals (my scientific publication record in misinformation research, in pandemic response, and in scientific research funding strategy all will be disqualifying) and institutions alike.

Scientific and intellectual freedom will be destroyed. Even where research currently "align[s] with the President’s policy priorities", researchers will not have the freedom to report accurately the results of their investigations lest their funding be terminated "at any time for any reason."

If these changes go through, it will be impossible to do effective science in the United States. Logistically, labs will not be able to function under these constraints. Team science—vital to almost every discipline—will be impossible under the rules around international collaboration.

5) And then there are bizarre overreaches, even if small in comparison: Requiring funding agencies to provide advance approval at the time of grant submission to attend a conference. Banning page charges making it impossible to comply with existing federal open access funding mandates.

4) International scientific collaboration is severely restricted. For the better part of a century the greatest strength of US science has been its position as a focal point of international research activity. This policy dooms US science to inevitable irrelevance.

3) Any grant can be terminated for any reason at any time—a devastating change that makes it impossible hire personnel, plan experiments, conduct field studies, or carry out most of the day-to-day activities that constitute effective science.

A few critical points: 1) Program officers will be replaced by political appointees in the grantmaking process. The role of peer review—originally introduced into US funding agencies for large part to prevent political interference with scientific research—is strongly diminished.

Of all the harm this administration has done to US science, today's proposed changes to the way federal grants are awarded and administered is the most damaging yet. The text of the federal register document is impenetrably tedious by design, so here's an excellent summary of what it says.
