This story in @natcellbio.nature.com by the amazing @mathilda95.bsky.social is the final flourish in a series of papers over the last year during which we reported a solution to the lipid imaging problem in biology. Stay tuned for the next chapters!

Die AfD tritt mit „Deutschland den Deutschen“ an und nicht mit „Mieten runter, Löhne rauf“. Das wissen die Wähler der Partei. Und ich weiß genau, wie sich Existenzängste anfühlen und was z.B. hohe Schulden und schlechte Bezahlung in sozialen Berufen und Alleinerziehen für irren Druck bedeuten.

What on earth justifies giving so much money to one single person? With an average Western income, you would have to work for tens of millions of years to earn that much. If such a person had started working when the dinosaurs became extinct, they would have so much money by now. Think about it.
