This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Figured I would put this out there. TransGENIC mice are NOT TransGENDER mice. TransGENIC refers to an organism or cell whose genome has been genetically altered. We use them to model human diseases & develop new treatments. This is yet another attempt to push anti-trans & anti-science rhetoric.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

. You should DEFINITELY NOT go to this site & mess with this DOGE survey by the Heritage Foundation. Definitely do NOT put fake information where they ask for your personal details. That would fuck up all their shit, man. These people are doing SERIOUS WORK. secured.heritage.org/the-heritage...

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls
