Angela Rasmussen only seems upset because the scandal is causing her"profession" to be "disparaged" by "opportunists and grifters", presumably like this substack's author.

As opposed to, you know, being upset that human civilization is being put in danger.

She seems like a real piece of work.

it's an interesting canary though. i do not disagree with your impression. professional status seems to trump facts for her.

but consider what it means when someone like that stops protecting the profession and singles someone out to throw under the bus.

what does that imply about what she's seeing and what she desperately wants to avoid association with?

she may be a piece of work, but she's not stupid, just self serving.

Even though being a cat and all, I do find rats quite tasty, I must admit that they are noble and intelligent creatures in comparison to the likes of these health apparatchiks. Perhaps we can say that the walls of the trash compactor are closing in?

:{ I adore my pet rats. they are smarter than me 100 fold. cute whiskers too! I need to think on something worse than a trash compactor. Not painful enough. Need to watch Dexter reruns.

Animals never lie. Animals don't kill for the heck of it, they kill for food. They are honest and smart and a lot more reliable than humans. If someone made human, it must have been a demon.

I still find it intruiging why a certain melinda chose to part ways with her partner when she did. Looking forward to all those beans. Conscience; self-interest; disgust; part of a plan?

and to act like that, you have no professional status in my book.

If the first thing that comes to mind is clearing the image of you profession, forgetting the millions suffering now, indeed, you are a piece of work, one with a psychopathic undertone
