Found my childhood rock collection. How many were accurately identified by 12 y/o me? Easily less than 10%, probably less than 5%. Like, I didn’t have access to reagents so there’s a lot of optimism in this photo.

If I get a deep cut while gardening I will rinse it with well whisky and if I can’t see bone I’ll patch it with Elmer’s glue and walk it off.
If kitten gets a booboo that inconveniences her in the slightest, I’ll have appts with 3 vets inside a half hour, and options for flying in specialists.

Scientific fraud is rising, and automated systems won't stop it. We need research detectives
