Incredibly irresponsible from Elle Macpherson: Holistic therapy is NOT valid treatment for breast cancer. So entitled that a multimillionaire with access to best healthcare advises women to ignore medical advice. Ample evidence this bullshit kills people theguardian.com/society/articl…

I don't think I've ever agreed with Janet Albrechtsen on anything before, but a stopped clock and all that.

The man who brought you the nonsensical “Died Suddenly” account thinks “Mein Kampf” by Adolf Hitler is a great leadership book… There are no words…

When you follow conspiracy theories and those who promote them, you realize that at some point, it always comes back to “The Jews.” Scratch a conspiracy theorist, reveal an antisemite…

From now on when people ask me what I enjoy about scicomms I’m just going to show them this
