    I always find being called a shill quite fascinating, because I actively turn down industry payments as I want to keep my writing unbiased if at all possible

        The fact is, I'm in an incredibly fortunate position because I have a full-time job that pays the bills, so I don't really ~need~ writing money and I CAN turn down offers from industry

        Nevertheless, it is bizarre when people will claim that I'm somehow in the pocket of pharmaceutical companies when the reality is that they've offered to pay me to write for them and I said no

        The thing is they're convinced that "but scientists could be CORRUPT!" is some kind of super-smart intuition that no researcher has ever had.
