I was reading one of the few second rate pieces I have seen in a publication I typically like. I chucked it halfway through as the kind of boredom that uninteresting trainwrecks

I have stared at trainwrecks. But it is usually the kind of stuff considered cool in these rather daft societies that are cooking themselves to death.

I never went to an American highschool and as far as I can tell as an outsider “winners” and “losers”..it is all pretty boring and tiresome. It degrades one to engage with it.

But the real reason it cannot be ignored is that I lost close to 15 years of work and one person is dead. There was no implied consent ever..ever.
I am not going to dignify bs.



People who eschewed IRB protocols going back at least to Sept 2011 are in no position to double down on this bs. What I saw before that at a cafe at a med school looked kinda lame and annoying. By the time that poor data hygiene, gossip etc had invaded the hospital where my mom was dying of cancer it was no longer merely annoying. When it came on to my street it was no longer something the whole could disengage from with attempts a child can see through- mind reading and all.
The same people I am going to file complaints against have every reason to yet again misrepresent this.
But without the ear shattering noise pollution and other aggression in the real world it won’t work.
I am filing misconduct, malpractice and harassment allegations.
I will initiate them as soon as I finish a paper that was stalled by this parasitic encroachment.


Today I finally have hope that this vile govt here going out of office means the whole will be dismantled, all “studies” shut down (such worthless stuff..the inferior quality of the science was the biggest stressor. Because that is the only real..watchamacallit. These are lame things with tech and “he said, she saids” where no absolute exists.
This is shoddy science. The minute you try to induct someone who isn’t going to be inducted into your bs.

You needed to explicitly ask permission and when you don’t bsing about a mental illness epidemic to fund second rate people whose main goal is to prevent misconduct and malpractice allegations or shepard them down tried and tested channels that obscure the reality.

I did not sign up for this. I would not sign up for it. I don’t see bullies etc. Well okay yeah bullies. But the real bullies are people like the billionaires.
This petty gossip type’s role is to distract with mini scams from big scam which is that it simply is not good work.

Its premise is a total lie. And it fails the minute someone says - which I tried from 2011.

This is not good work and it is fatiguing. And I actually think the butts of jokes are more interesting than these people with an emptiness inside them nothing can fill. Though that is puttiny stuff in their language.
But the real issue is that shitty admins etc cannot deflect attention to bullshit internet trivia ignoring the rollout of technology into living spaces and like this.

It is not inevitable. As the approach seems to be “Yeah we are just doing this.” I will respond in kind. You are not. If anything it may work to clean up some stuff that was always shitty.

I am not going to get distracted by this. I want to know why my mom went off metformin. It was not unconnected with the start of what smelt again like liability culture which takes credit for success and no blame for failures.

I am filing malpractice allegations in psychiatry and misconduct in human subject research and harassment allegations about poor data hygiene. If you want a libertarian playground with some bullshit FB contagion style studies this is not the place.
Anyway nice try:

It is quiet and the recent move of marijuana to schedule 3 status in the US and the election results that came out Monday give me hope for the first time since Oct 2011.
This was lame. Who the hell mixes hard science with such drivel.
Good social science isn’t like this.

It really caters to the lcd that considers Ariely,
Gino, Haidt, Pinker etc science.
But I feel optimistic finally about my jog tonight and work tomorrow.

This is a place where gangrapes, acid attacks and cyberstalking are common.


You need to stop fighting misconduct, malpractice and harassment allegations and take the smaller penalty.
Don’t try to invert this again out there and don’t pile on.

It is quieter on the whole and isn’t like a constant assault/ but at 7:30 pm another noise polluting brainless misogynistic parasite went by on his bike.

It is official. I am filing criminal charges in some cases where people knowingly used this street with the knowledge of people whose job it was to shut this down. Especially starting from 2023.
Don’t try to use second rate narratives about bullying and stuff from high school.
This is about money and space. The misogyny and the bullying only work to enable the pillage and plunder.
This stuff is not my strength. It never was.
I tried to bail in Oct 2011 when it dawned on me that something second rate was ongoing and I couldn’t.

Today I don’t want to only bail. I will file complaints.
I encourage anyone who is acceptable to come to me with information I need.
Your enemy’s enemy aka I am your friend whatever your faith or deal if you are honest and decent and hate these guys.
I will also go via the system.

This internet stuff and people stuff is not really my thing except civilized DUers and civilized scientists aka not the type of rabble you find at Stanford, MIt etc. That Prof Ryan Williams and Paul Ehrlich and Prof Dirzo aside those two schools mainly exist to annoy people into insanity. And that might make a good show for the online who have way too much time and make a show of

I have way too much time. But I wanted to spend it on stuff I find fun not one upmanship with people whose minds are a torture to decode as they are so damn empty.
Is this what that version of highschool does? I get why even twisted politics are interesting as they have real world effects beyond mere annoyance.
This is largely a nails on chalkboard crew since at least 2010-2011.

Anyway I am going to clean up now. Finish my paper. I was supposed to start on Monday but that money this din was not yet gone and then the election results came in and there is a quiet over the city after 10 years of this corrupt and nightmarish govt.
I will resume my workout. Hopefully that was the last of it. I am going to push for a real crackdown.
I am sorry. Not because I care. But because it will be..I am not looking forward to it.

But it is peaceful now/ I will finish my paper and clean up. In a formal system without gaslighting tests and observation and new people with no stake I will be credible and I am open to some minimal non conflict.
But this was not good. It was not in my head and cannot be normalized. Weed looks en route to being legal without creepy rubber stamps.
This will go the way of Outcome Healthcare, Elizabeth Holmes etc. As for traffic studies etc

It is clear that too much experimentation that is outright misconduct occurred between 2010 and the present in two countries and I am filing complaints/
I will write down clear narrative. I may post some of it here.
But for now I want to finish up and clean up so I can get back into professional drag and destroy this worthless experiment and see that every last complaint is filed.
My mentor and an adjacent annoying lab will be okay. Merely being silly and annoying are not misconduct though certainly not the best fit for frayed nerves. Idiots who read Freakonomics and think that is brilliant.

It is really hard to know how to talk in a way intelligible to people who are about as deep as you assess them to be and yeah Carlin can go and look for universes in the eyes of these pills.
I don’t want to.

All I have wanted to do was file complaints and I will. It is not surprising that that would be hampered. That needs to stop.
I do not know what inane pattern this would fit in the eyes of the types of persons who see some of themselves in this.
Whereas all I ever saw was the types of people one avoids. I didn’t see universal human dynamics etc. Beyond that I rarely like people. And there were almost no people of the type I would like in this and that didn’t seem safe to admit.

This is the key..not quiet but this hell started in 2011. I entered that hell as normal average postdoc struggling with the difficulties of that path. I was a wreck by the time I left 8 months later. It was just difficult after.
The last 10 years of this vile govt.

I am pretty sure this will be dismantled now. All our corrupt cm’s cutouts etc were gone.
I can now return to my July 2011 self. Last July this viciously ramped up.
Today it was quiet and pleasant. A few residual creeps on the street aside.
This street (0000F5D7) is a crime scene at this point and trying to bs is no use,
I will be back on du after this paper is over

This has caused a lot of damage to my health,
I was healthy and normal in 2011. This shitty expt wrecked my health.
It is not my mentors fault or that of a scientist adjacent from a foul lab I took an instant dislike to. I hate people who read Freakonomics
I am not joking.

It is impossible to talk to these ppl. They think paranoia is qanon. It is so disingenuous.
“Paranoia” is correctly pegging a pi as the type who outside hard science reads Freakonomics and has a specific annoying worldview.
Well if not precisely Freakonomics in that range. Harriri, Bill Gates’ book list and to such a person ..well I can’t get into everything wrong with such persons except ..they are better than RFK etc
But still.
Science is hard as is. Without consorting with the type of shallow person who likes Haidt, Pinker etc. It is why a couple of writers aside I like Current Affairs, Yasha etc
There is something very bleak about anything beyond the routine with that type
How can anyone read the mind of the type of person who thinks that is the fix for anything

And with this creepy harassing local govt gone I can start.

I will get go back to normal and finish this and prepare to file complaints anonymously.
I will be nice I promise. Except with the creeps who flooded my street. No quarter there.

The internet has the dynamics of a tabloid a lot and places like Stanford/harvard have a lot of that dynamic (that tacky prison expt) in spades except when they make science repellant. Its a good object lesson on this economy where good civilian hard science is made so impossibly hard that only the kids of total douchebags can even aspire to it and whether you are someone who likes this other lightweight junk or not via slander about mental illness (to attack your credibility as a complainant) or distraction with this criminally creepy stalkerish health destroying crass drivel.


Thjs is not cleaning etc. It is invasive
Well I support my mentor (okay I support his wife and so I have to tolerate him..we are past all dishonesty. I really liked my mentors wife..a decent woman and so one has to put up with him, Ted tech talks/Freakonomics and all..I like to minimize conflict and so it is convenient that he is married to such a decent woman) and have listed all the decent people over and over.

But I will clock into irisblue’s thread once a day. Never cared for that AA crap. These guys overuse addiction models probably to avoid accepting that their main service is space grabs and annoyance. This fabric should be destroyed.
I had no idea there were these many silly and tiresome people in science and they need to stop using the tired spiels of internet companies to cross boundaries with unfriendly strangers.
I can always tell when they try narratives that really silly and gossipy people lap up to distract from the tech creeps and the real issue.

So not this time. This is not my forte but with a proper official and police and other authorities I will stay on track and not legitimise anything above the acceptable stuff from 2008. It’s time these laws and regulations were updated rather than myopic rot.

In fact, I should retrain normal ways starting tomorrow as this is a credible explanation to my mind for a real change being feasible now shutting this whole project and all its creepy offshoots down.
And I can prepare to be a different person ..well the same person I was prior July 2011 to be credible to a new set of non trumpy people with no ties to any oft jus in the future to ensure this never happens again and Lina Khan meets MeToo style strict rules are established so publicly funded scientists, patients, homeowners etc are not forced into this predatory landscape or exploited and total abortion options must exist.
