        The likelihood that scientists who've built a massive, complex theory about something haven't considered the point you thought up 5 minutes ago while high is really quite small Shocking, I know

        If you're not an expert but you think you've destroyed the entire foundation of a vast scientific edifice with 10 minutes of Googling, you might want to consider the possibility that you could be wrong

        If I ever get the chance, I would buy you a drink. Of course I would use my vaccine conspiracy money to reimburse myself, but I would love the chance to treat you to a 🥃

        I am related to many of these people. All of whom, for some reason, think I want this aggressively promoted to me at family gatherings. I am the scientist in the equation. Unfortunately. The only one.

        One of my greatest moments on Twitter was watching one of the world's preeminent pre-historic shark expert explain to the "fool" how we know the megalodon really is extinct.

        There are many truths, which it is useless for the vulgar to know; and many falsities which it is fit *people* should not suppose are falsities.

        Scientist 1: "Vaccines don't cause autism." Expert Government Witness Dr. Andrew Zimmerman: "Well, sometimes they CAN cause autism." Scientist 2: "Yes, and Guillaine Barre Syndrome is a risk, as well. That's a neurological disease, too." Scientist 1: "Don't listen to them!"
