Been to Greece once but it wasn't enough, a lot more islands I want to check out.

Hi f3nix, good to see that the banana fish is still moving us inevitably towards oblivion. I'm still overseas for now, should be fully back in action in a couple of weeks

I think there are always people in government willing to do those kind of things, but in times of peace they don't have the justification to do it

This is one of the bond villains I had the most faith in, was at first disappointed to find out that it wasn't poisonous in itself. As I think about it more though, it's cooler that it's taking advantage

I have heard that left-handed people tend to be more creative, since the right side of their brain is more domina I think there might be a bit of truth in that

People often think that a scenario like this couldn't happen today, but things can change very fast once people feel under threat and an enemy is identified. I think dark science-fiction will always be

If I ever get kidnapped I hope it will be in Greece. Even if I get locked underground in a ruin I will be able to appreciate the architecture.

I think the decision in this case is partly a result of the way the American legal system works. If you are a victim of an accident/disease the only way you can get financial help is to show it is someone’s

Have a good break, just coming back from mine. It was good to see the sun again:)

Our research demonstrates that there is a fundamental tension between the brain areas that we use to understand the experiential viewpoint of others and the brain areas we use for emotionally disengaged

I remember I first heard about this disease in Trainspotting (the movie). Tommy had survived his heroin addiction, at least up until that point, but then caught this parasite from his kitten and died.

For me the main reason I haven’t posted anything in a while is that I’m on holiday with the family. It also feels good to have a bit of a holiday from the usual writing routine, And I would be lying if

It’s really a bad situation when doctors have strong financial incentives to use certain medications. Unfortunately what’s best for the patient doesn’t always come first. I hadn’t heard of Paul McHugh

It is a scary development that we have to start trying to convince people that there are objective facts. I think we should start putting more of an emphasis on teaching the history of the scientific method

this is a great post on engaging with the Steemstem community. The party really happens late night on the discord server though, link at the top of this article:)

Great to hear that the media has changed its ways a bit. Also in New Zealand there has been some coverage about how the anti-VAXers increase the overall incidence of the disease.

Very important to draw attention to the overuse of antibiotics. If someone is in decent health, they shouldn’t be necessary for minor illness. I think in my whole life I haven’t done more than 4 to 5 courses

Well the bum probably was the cutest part. Not quite the Nicki Minaj of flies though, he was pretty toned

Looking forward to the live stream!

I guess there will always be a few con artists like Wakefield, and a certain percentage of the public that makes decisions based on faith/feelings over science. Really negligent reporting by the media
