“Obvious con man doesn’t deliver, marks shocked”

I keep running out of ways to be shocked by the stupid solutions to nonexistent problems. #science #academia #immigration #china

Banana republic bullshit. This country is rapidly becoming the most corrupt in the developed world.

FIE. NUH. LEE. It doesn't stop all of the tariffs but it stops a lot of them. This will go to SCOTUS probably, and they'll largely uphold the ruling (though probably with some BS about "only a POTUS can decide what counts as an emergency").

Old article, but an interesting part of Israeli history and culture I’d never heard of. #israel #zionism #racism

“We’re only against illegal immigrants”

As a scientist, words fail me for what a shockingly stupid idea this is. Like real Gump-level stupidity.

I would really love to sit down with these types of people and ask them as politely as I can muster where on Earth they got the idea that Trump would be good on the economy, and that he wouldn’t be a protectionist dictator on day one LIKE HE LITERALLY PROMISED.

Anybody got 7 million pounds they want to give me? I’M BEGGING YOU! #kubrick

"Sorry, my Mum said no"

Another year of being shouted down after bringing up null pointers in the mandatory workplace safety training. Sucks to care.

But how will we buy thoughts? #pennies #bitcoin #crypto #cryptid #cryptkeeper #crybaby

I read the letter the GOP sent to Harvard. All the citations are for published research. PUBLISHED. As in publicly available. As in nothing whatsoever to do with “secrets”. There is zero security risk here, nothing nefarious. This is a bunch of pols not understanding how research is done.

It can’t be overstated how important foreign students and faculty are to America’s status as a scientific superpower, both historically and presently. Whether maliciously or ignorantly, Trump continues to destroy the pillars holding up the institutions that make America great.

The World’s Worst People (Tuesday Edition) But we reserve special mention for Quisling Media Mogul Shari Redstone, who is aggressively enshittifying CBS News in her eagerness to [redacted] Donald Trump’s [redacted]. charliesykes.substack.com/p/the-gop-is...

I’m guilty of turning a blind eye, more because I don’t trust anything Trumpers say than for partisan reasons, but guilty nonetheless. We should all admit our mistakes.
