    Every so often, I feel the urge to ask: Where is all my filthy pharma lucre? I keep being accused of being a "pharma shill" by quacks who don't like my writing about alternative medicine and quackery? So where's my money? Where's my yacht? Where's my Hawaii vacation home? 1/

        Sadly, it turns out that I'm probably the worst pharma shill of all time. I've gotten a small pharmaceutical grant in my entire 20 year career. It was enough to pay 10 months' of the salary of my postdoc at the time. I've never received any pharma funding since. 3/

        And, now, I'm actually studying a drug to repurpose from use for neurological conditions to use for breast cancer, and I'm not even paid by the drug company making the drug. 4/

        I used to feel the same way about being a liberal activist without any Soros money, but then I realized that being Jewish and not benefiting from the conspiracy was lifelong training for this sort of thing.

        The Hawaii vacation home is only available who are invited into the Secret Big Pharma and Darwinism Society. You sure you didn't lose your invite?

        I’m gonna take a wild guess it’s in Hawaii. Or that you’re really bad at geography.
