Really into Thinking, while it's still (sort of) allowed. Art and stuff is cool, too. Doing my best to be the person @JoleneBone (Golden Retriever) thinks I am.

This is delightful. I’ll always love Elton, and we should look to those who Survived the Plague for lessons informing today.

In an effort to stave off <waves hands everywhere> here's a great thread on how US funding of basic research helped unlock the secrets of DNA analysis.

It’s a little late to change your tune, my dude. The time to encourage vaccine use is long before uptake rates drop below 90%. You know what you did, bc you’re still doing it.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

Struggling a bit this week? I know I am. So here are some pics of Jolene, who’s a very good girl, and who recently celebrated her 9th birthday.

How would your workplace fare if everyone hired in the past year was suddenly fired, with no warning? Because that happened today at federal agencies. Remember how we were told that Trump wouldn’t implement Project 2025?

Bless you, Guardian, for this level of petty: "“First of all, I’m not the one filing the contract. It’s the people at SpaceX or something,” said Musk, the founder, chief executive, chief engineer and chair of SpaceX."

AIMBE has developed a new advocacy letter on the changes to NIH indirect cost rates: aimbe.org/advocate/wri... We urge the broader biomedical research community to customize this letter (<1 minute) to contact your congressional representatives about the severe consequences of this new policy 👇

Late Friday, Musk/Trump announced that the NIH is drastically cutting funding for medical research. Not just new projects, either: the cuts apply to existing research. This will have catastrophic consequences.

Thankful this Golden Retriever Day (which is every day, if we’re honest) and appreciating our sweet Jolene! I had surgery a couple weeks ago and she hasn’t left my side. She’s even restrained her natural glee to be gentle with me. She’s a very, very good girl and we’re so lucky.

YES BEYONCÉ!!!!!!! Finally.

I swear, every time I make chicken stock it feels like alchemy. It’s *literally* garbage and a few plants covered in water and it becomes liquid gold.

Nothing better than a skilled phlebotomist. I bruise like crazy, but this is from YESTERDAY. Amazing.
