Here I fixed the WasPost editorial : According to research by DRASTIC, a network of convicted pedophiles, eroticnovel writers, cryonic hucksters, slanderous post-docs turned science police, purveyors of city sized soft-corepornography and led by a penis-fixated graffiti artist, this is the most important bat coronavirus database in China.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

True. I do not want to get into a long tweet debate about all this. I had planned to ignore it but that tweet crossed the line. I've now a one tweet response and that is it.

I also have on hand the relevant emails with Clare Thomas at Nature and Jeremy Farrar via Twitter message. These:100: support what I've said and show that I was trying to get the sequence released ASAP but that Zhang was under strong pressure. These are not subject to GIPA but it is good to have them.

I have all the ammo, it's just a case of when I use it. I was hoping to stay above all this shit.
