Unfortunately, research on prisoners and concentration camp victims did produce new valuable medical information.

Most of the field of gynecology is based on experiments done on women slaves, where the “doctors” decided their victims conveniently didn’t have nerve endings.

Ethics throttles research.

But I am aghast at the thought that we should permit unethical research in the pursuit of, at the end of the day, greed.

And I say this as a professional scientist.

I can’t believe this conversation is even necessary.

Dude is going to flip if he ever watches Miracle on 34th Street.

The litterbox thing is so outrageous that it gives their tyrannical proposals the vineer of addressing a real problem.

But the litterbox story was fabricated, and the only grain of truth of it is that some classrooms did keep kitty litter as a mitigation against being trapped by an active shooter - another conservative-created problem.

They will continue to glom onto outrageous stories, to justify their outrageously oppressive proposals.

I’ve seen my coworkers take paternity leave, which I think is like 8 weeks where I work.

Generally, they’ve staggered it with their spouse so that one parent is working and the other on child care, rather than both being out over the same window. Typically the Dad’s have taken their leave a couple months after the baby is born when Mom is returning to work. It keeps the baby out of daycare for as long as possible.
