It sure is such a good thing that we provide funding for the sciences in order to continue researching cures for the... what's that you say? We FA and now we're about to FO? That does not sound very fun, like at all...

I did find this article when I was looking up to see whether anything was being done, and it does offer some hope.

Thus, governments are starting to act and there is much to be optimistic about, not least the fact that most of the NP antibiotics that have been discovered come from a small fraction of the microbes on Earth. With suitable global action, this should lead to a renewed antibiotic pipeline to combat AMR alongside other emergent technologies, such as vaccines, antibody-antibiotic conjugates, probiotics, phage therapy and rapid diagnostics

changes in financial models are required to translate scientific advances into clinically approved antibiotics.

Just gotta get through this brief fall of democracy and capitalism in the Western World first, then we can get right on that...

Sorry, I am no fun today:-(.

Yep. As usual, the Money Men are the problem.

I propose banning money

I'd buy that for a dollar!

I read this at first as "Monkey Men", which seemed to work just as well (e.g. greed).

Me when I'm reaping: 😂

Me when I'm sowing: 😱

Shouldn't that be the other way around?

Yes, I fucked up. However, I stand by My mistake. I'm not a billionaire, I'm not to blame for all this stuff. I'm not a carnist and I'm not a car driver. When I get to reap My own produce, it's awesome. But all too often, I'm sowing solutions to other people's problems. Other people drive cars, and then I have to do the work of dealing with the allergies it causes.
