Everybody who fell for the Harper's Letter or all the hand-wringing about "uncivil" students on the left, congratulations. You built this. You own this. And fuck you for being the useful idiots these fascists needed to launder their dismantling of academic freedom.
All my friends are SO COOL! Monika and her lab assure us you can build this cool scope in <4 hours and use it to explore not just her favorite organism 🪱, but also mine 🪰, and also tardigrades!
