🚨 Just a few hours left to comment on FDA Covid-19 vaccine approval Did you know Covid vaccines are proven to prevent severe disease and hospitalization in children and teens? 😍 🚨 Please, please comment. Ok to omit “category” and click “anonymous” if desired ➡️ www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

You have three days, starting today, to leave a public comment with the FDA about, say, why COVID-19 boosters should remain available to everyone and also free. "Individual consumer" is the category you most likely want (unless you are one of the other categories; if so, choose that).

Apparently existing foreign students at Harvard MUST transfer according to the Trump administration. My Harvard neuroscience/connectomics peeps: If this impacts any of you (faculty/students), get in touch with me and we can chat about how I can help you.

They're literally trying to keep people from getting the COVID vaccine. Commenting here is an easy and quick way to push back.

You also can’t learn to write good papers without writing bad drafts (or bad papers) so write your own outlines, drafts, and papers!

If you're a grad student or an undergrad interested in research I need to you listen to me very carefully. You cannot learn to write good research papers if you do not read good research papers. Stop asking LLMs to summarize papers for you.

There’s something about them Gen X rock bands. I saw Matchbox Twenty live last year and Rob Thomas was jumping around like for 95% of the show without any signs of slowing down.

Hate to be millennial about it all but it is just mental that my whole working life has just been a series of recessions and “economic shocks”, underpinned by stagnant wages

I'm 18. The economy enters a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican president is responsible. I'm 29. There is once-in-a-century pandemic that leads to a once-in-century-recession. A Republican is responsible. I'm 35. Tarriffs trigger a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican is responsible.

Black people aren't annoyed with you for going after Obama because we worship him or cosign his actions. Black people are annoyed with you because the white racist backlash his multicultural neolib admin sparked is a problem that YOU must solve. Black people can't help you fix it! Trust, we tried!

Harriet Jacobs escaped slavery after hiding for 7 years to protect her children. Her book “Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl” revealed the struggles of enslaved women, making her a key voice in the abolitionist movement. 150 days until Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Great. Now how does this translate into action? VP Harris had large crowds during the campaign that didn’t translate to votes.

Two special elections for congressional seats in Florida could change the balance in the House. Dems have raised a ton of $, but Repubs are still favored to win. Dems need to get EVERY REGISTERED DEM VOTER to the poll & every Republican voter concerned abt social Sec. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

I am 54 years old. I stepped back from Moms Demand Action after 11 years because I understood that power is finite. Organizations and nations can’t evolve if they don’t have new rolling leadership. This isn’t about age, it’s about hoarding power.

My son reminded me: "Just because you don't know your impact, doesn't mean your not having one." It took 20 years for Pauli Murray to learn that it was their legal strategy that led to the end of segregation. Let that sink in. Your effort matters more than you'll ever know.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

We've had a lot of recessions, but this is the first one that is completely unforced and entirely owed to just one person. What part of Trump promising "lower prices on day one" meant a market crash, economic recession, and surging prices?

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Somebody just made me aware of the tweet by that person. Students who see this: taking time off work to advocate for science peacefully at the state capitol is NOT participating in an illegal protest. Full stop.
