When a professor's research project faced funding cuts, he turned to OnlyFans

Wildlife researcher Dan Blumstein found his funding slashed, so he turned to a unique source for financial support: OnlyFans. He created an account called OnlyMarms, offering subscribers exclusive, uncensored videos and content about marmots. This creative move highlights the challenges academic researchers face when traditional funding sources dry up, prompting some to explore unconventional avenues for support. Blumstein’s endeavor underscores the broader issue of declining research funding and the innovative ways people are finding to sustain their work.
