Not sure how I feel about this. Are many vaccine developers also furries?

I'd imagine many people in power have various hobbies you'd consider odd if you knew about them. (nevermind fetishes, oh my god!)

Never mind religion, oh your god!

And he's a scientist but believes in horoscopes. I don't think I've seen someone living a more hypocritical lifestyle

"believes in" is an easy way to dismiss someone. The word "entertains" would be more accurate. The frequencies of ratios is correlated to the compositivity of the denominator. There's nothing crazy about horoscopes except taking them too seriously. There are very deep patterns in the construction of the universe, dictated by repeating patterns.

> I had, like Dewey and others, only gradually come to the understanding that these cycles arrive from outside the earth. Not only that, but quite a few of them fitted with planetary alignments, and many serious scientists or analysts do not want to go there because that is astrology and only quacks do astrology. However it is a fact that these relationships exist. There are several reasons why the planetary alignments match common cycle periods, and others why the Sun is affected by planetary alignments. Saying that does not make me an astrologer. Like many scientists I regard horoscopes as as a cruel trick played on gullible people.

Wait, I know some physicists and scientists who use Costar. It's almost always somewhat tongue-in-cheek, just a little fun to add spice to life. Not a 100% serious religious guide... in the same way I know serious scientists who own a and cleanse a few crystals for the 'aura.'

It's kinda like pointing at a scientist who plays DnD and carries a DnD good luck pin and saying "DnD isn't even real! It's just play."

Its actually pretty common to venture outside the box in every regard, if you have the ability to venture outside the box.

Furries come from a broad cross-section of civilization, though tech has outsized representation as a profession. It's highly likely someone you know and respect is a furry.

I've run into us in surprising places. It's amusing to me when a fandom connection saves the day ;-)

There's an expose available on the pseudononymous author.[1] According to that, she is a Moderna employee.
