Get the IRL Lobby Filler mug.A thief of packages, mail, etc., from apartment building lobbies and other common areas. Identical to "porch pirate" but targets multifamily buildings rather than single-family homes. ("Ladrone" is Spanish for thief.)

Get the switch lobby mug.Organized interest groups within the scientific community—whether aligned with specific industries (pharma, fossil fuels), ideological camps, or dominant academic paradigms—that use their influence, funding power, and control over prestigious journals and conferences to steer research priorities, suppress dissenting findings, and shape public perception to favor their interests. They turn the scientific process into a political battlefield.
Example: For decades, Scientific Lobbies funded by the sugar industry successfully directed nutrition research toward blaming fat for heart disease, published favorable studies in major journals, and marginalized scientists pointing to sugar's role, distorting public health guidelines for a generation.

Get the Scientific Lobbies mug.A systematic corruption of the scientific process where organized interest groups—corporate, political, or ideological—fund, produce, and disseminate research specifically engineered to influence policy and public opinion in their favor. Unlike genuine scientific inquiry, which follows questions wherever they lead, Lobbying Science starts with a predetermined conclusion and reverse-engineers the "evidence" to support it. It maintains the aesthetic of peer-reviewed legitimacy while functioning as a public relations arm. This includes funding friendly academics, ghostwriting papers, suppressing unfavorable results, and creating front organizations with neutral-sounding names to launder biased conclusions.
Example: A fossil fuel conglomerate funds a "Global Climate Research Institute" that publishes studies emphasizing natural climate variability and downplaying anthropogenic causes. Their scientists sit on IPCC panels, their papers appear in reputable journals, and their findings are cited by sympathetic politicians. This isn't science serving truth; it's Lobbying Science—the research arm of a political war, dressed in a lab coat and holding a clipboard.
