Trump's illegal war increases the chances of major oil spills in the gulf. Not that Trump gives a damn, because his whole life is one situation after another in which he walks away from the wreckage he's created. But the rest of us must care, and must stop him.

13yo is irrationally pumped about the MATLAB shirt he found thrifting. 😂 #math Time to put him to work in the lab, eh #neuroskyence?

Scientific literature depends on the integrity of its references. Each reference implicitly asserts that a verifiable source exists and supports the claims being made. When references point to non-exi...
