Delicious irony: a publishing giant making billions supposedly to filter out dodgy papers highlighting how unpaid volunteers outperform them at it. 🤷♂️🤡

Predatory vibes from @pensoft.net — click a link to decline a review and you’re forced to create an account—purely to pump user metrics.
Declining a review should not require registration. Commercially driven #predatorypublishing plain and simple.

“Original” blots/gel scans (before cropping) as source data, says @cellpress.bsky.social #CellOnions
Good principle, but it’s just theatre. #ScienceCrisis 🤡
One of the quiet tragedies of modern academia is how easily career logic outcompetes curiosity.
When survival depends on grants, metrics, and constant output, researchers adapt—not because they want to, but because they must.

This is creepy, full-on predatory-journal energy. Yo @WileyGlobal Get a grip! #WileyCoyote #sciencecrisis
"We talk about innovation, but structurally we remain what world-systems analysis would call a semi-peripheral economy: materially comfortable, but technologically dependent, exporting raw commodities and importing complex capability.” #auspol #sciencecrisis
Fraud is just a symptom. The real crisis in science publishing runs deeper—through incentives, broken peer review, and eroding norms.

CONICET has over 10k researchers and 11k doctoral/postdoc fellows.
Yet the current government froze new hires, cut funding, and blocked over 800 approved scientist entries.
As a result, highly trained PhDs are leaving the country.
A brain drain in real time. #ScienceCrisis
19/ The integrity of our public health system is being challenged. When unverified, inaccurate, and fabricated data is allowed to influence policy, it undermines the public’s trust in science—and that’s a crisis we can’t afford.

5/11 Researchers are already feeling the impact. Colin Carlson at Yale leads a 50-researcher pandemic prediction project funded by a $12.5 million NSF grant. He warns the freeze "is going to destroy people's labs" unless lifted soon.
