@democrats.org GOTTA MOVE AND ENERGIZE THE BASE! STOP ASKING FOR MONEY VIA TEXT DAM IT! We don’t have money!

I’m being flooded with Pro Trump ads on Instagram which was pretty much a safe zone until today. I’m saying 3-4 ads one after another. WTF is going on?

All these firings will lead to missed payments, foreclosed homes, family instability, and who knows what more … WAKE UP!

Elon Musk's claim that federal workers who ignore a mass email will lose their job isn't supported by the email's request — or OPM guidance that says responses to its mass emails are "voluntary."

DOGE isn't saving us money. DOGE is forcing us to DIY society--to manage all the costs, risks, and problems that government is best poised to solve.

Please news agencies, if you’re going to report stories on federal workers being terminated start with who they voted for I mean, we know but confirmation bias old be nice

Our paper (with @zhuofeilu.bsky.social) is out! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The Democratic Party should start by apologizing to what they labelled the “Bernie Bros” for rigging the system against a progressive movement 10 years ago.

Elon Musk is a nazi. Not interested in his gang of Broligarchs or the swatzicar. They are hurting the nation, people are suffering. Just a dumbass making decisions that affect people’s lives. Congress, more like observers at this point, has abdicated their responsibility to the American people. Sad.

In @odissei.bsky.social we help researchers start using admin data for the first time and this is very familiar. I call it the Willy Wonka effect, where newcomers are overwhelmed by the size, complexity, and power of admin data. Elon Musk is Augustus Glooping.

Musk, The coyote of the desert who likes to eat the heart of the young and the blood drips down to the Broligarchs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner... and only the ribs will be broken...

Why isn't this getting more coverage?

RIP Paquita la del Barrio. 🕊️

It has been an honor to mentor Sara A. Soto in the publication of her work on Neighborhood Cohesion and Anxiety Symptoms! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Fuck ICE. Monitor this 🖕🏼.

I had a day full of meetings with students! What a nice day.

I was irked by Nazi Musk when he was in The Big Bang Theory years ago … pretending to be a nice guy … and I continue to be irked by him.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

DOGE plans to slash about as much ($4B) from NIH, and hence from universities and medical centers, as the government gave SpaceX ($3.8B) last year. It's not about the money and government "waste." It's never been about the money or government "waste." www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

Cuts to the NIH are a strategy to strangle research universities not “reduce waste”

10 yrs living in PA. Want to say @fetterman.senate.gov is NOT a good Senator. Why we fought so hard to elect him so he can be a Republican?

Happy to have visited @sagradocorazon.bsky.social and be a featured speaker on “Research and Innovation” through their @nehgov.bsky.social funded speaker series!

One of our colleagues brought me Arroz con Pollo. What a way to start Monday!

In a new comment in Nature, @abalkina.bsky.social and colleagues outline five essential steps to combat paper mills - industrialized scientific misconduct 🧪 #AcademicSky @natureportfolio.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I've been taking the course on Narrative Economics by Robert J. Shiller via Coursera! It has been a fascinating insights into how we craft narratives! Lots of parallels with the emerging area of 'Demography of Memory'.

If a colleague is not treating you right I recommend stoicism. Then nominate them for all Service Commitments at the College level. Write the best nomination paragraph, so that the nominating authority has strong arguments to ask them to join or appoint them.

Farewell Madam Executive Director @alldanielle.bsky.social! You were a phenomenal Executive Director for PAA! Thanks for your help and for becoming one of us! It has been a joy to meet and interact with you over the past 10 years! Godspeed and Thank You!

NY Times has for a while been very coy about certain issues. By becoming a Reach “All of America” outlet they are abdicating their responsibility as a press outlet and becoming a glorified blog. If Democracy dies in the darkness … this is as dark as it has been.
