The military expects 50k casualties in the first 8 days of the next high-intensity peer conflict. That’s 20 years of losses from GWOT compressed into a single week. We’re building @pilgrimlabs to deploy medical technology designed for the operational realities of modern warfare.

Everything feels different lately. Not sure what's going on. But it feels like everyone is quiet quitting. There's an air of resignation. Vibes are really off. Communities drifting apart. Regardless, hope everyone is healthy and happy and living their joy: whatever that may be.

For those who continue to debate the origin of COVID, I highly recommend listening to @mattwridley recent lecture @NIH (Images from lecture revealing internal comms from CDC/NIH advisors)

We are already at war and the fight is a lot closer to home than you think. I would exercise my 2nd amendment rights if you haven't already and I would think hard about who our real allies around the world are.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. Barksdale is the HQ for our B52 nuclear bombers, it's where Bush sheltered on 9/11, and the drones are reported as "far more sophisticated than anything seen in Ukraine ... and well beyond Iranian capabilities."

The emphasis on contractual R&D (you think cost plus is bad...) and avoidant primes waiting for the next research contract to come from a pandemic funding surge is not a sufficient strategy. These orgs have become a liability that will result in real harm to our nation.

Decades of R&D and billions in spending and we still can’t meaningfully detect emerging threats.

Latest @StateDept threat assessments indicate Iran retains the standing capability to rapidly produce offensive biological weapons through existing programs. Quick reminder that COVID deaths in the US alone were the equivalent of ~400 9/11s

jacob works at @blueprintbio and dramatically undersells how consequential they have been in pushing pathogen-agnostic defenses closer to the overton window. e.g.: if you're curious about far-UVC, they have published a 146 page report over it here: blueprintbiosecurity.org/u/2025/06/Blue…
Jacob Swett@JacobSwett

This nails something important: the main barriers to pathogen-agnostic defenses like far-UVC and glycol vapors are largely funding and execution shaped. If you're excited about making these technologies happen, we'd love to have you join us!

@owl_posting @Blueprintbio Two current bits of discourse are "Thiel is trying to get billionaires to stop giving to normal charities and invest in startups if you want to help the world" and "These startups could stop all pandemics and seasonal disease if well funded." Hmmmmmmmmm

With 30 years and billions spent, our nation cannot meaningfully detect emerging biothreats. That gap is about to close. Speaking at MIT TechNatSec (4/3-4/4). Tickets below🫡

Reasons to be pessimistic (and optimistic) on the future of biosecurity owlposting.com/p/reasons-to-b… "It was such a fun read (if you can say that about an article on weapons)!" —a glowing review from an early reader this is (once again) the longest article I have ever published at 13,000 words. it involves interviews with 16+ researchers/VC's/policy folks in this field, and discusses basically every single facet of biosecurity that i could find. topics include: how machine-learning in rapid response therapeutic design may work, the financial status of the customer base of biosecurity startups, why agroterrorism feels extremely likely to me, and a lot more i admittedly started the essay pessimistic that this subject matters at all, and i end it surprised that it doesn't keep more people awake at night. im not a doomer about it all, but i can see how people become one. very grateful to the people who decide to spend their career (or some fraction of it) working here, and especially grateful to the ones who helped teach me about the subject
