Ben Ryan, Science Writer and Journalist

Ben Ryan's been through hell in 2022 - Cancer, Chemo, Covid and recently he has been smeared by right wing trash on Twitter. He does tweet an awful lot though.

Ben's Falcon-porn star looks were desecrated by the chemo, but now he has settled into a hot-looking bald bear, IMO.

Does anyone know him in real life? What's he like?

Actually he is annoying as hell.

He came after my hottie Brian Tyler Cohen.

Sorry he has health concerns, but according to data lounge protocol, we must side with Brian because he's hotter than Benjamin.

Sorry OP. I didn't make the rules.

I saw that r3 and found it very peculiar. Of all the people to over-analyze and go after, he picks Brian Tyler Cohen?

He stole the typo that made him twitter-famous for a day or two.

This one, R5. I don't know how to link to the original tweet, but someone else posted it a few days before his "typo" and he commented, "I'm stealing this." Which he did. And then claimed it as his own.

He checked himself into Bellevue the night Hillary lost.

i think he is good overall and was fantastic during monkeypox with accurate reporting that didn't get hysterical but also didn't pull punches. the right wing hates him but so does the left wing.

LOL

Obviously for DL this is the true tragedy--not the danger to his life, nor the physical misery of going through chemo.
