   When I view science as under a state of collapse, everything about my scientific career suddenly makes sense. Of course there is no funding for nuanced problems. Of course there are very few opportunities - of which most are canned narratives in which I have zero authority to steer the research. Of course 99% of academics ignore or dismiss my scientific questions. Of course everyone is going down a rabbit hole. We’re not in a golden age of science. We’re on the brink of collapse.
