1. Major exclusive breaking news: Marco Rubio may have just banned trans foreigners seeking visas with correct gender markers from US Entry. A new cable, effective immediately, says visas must contain assigned sex at birth and should be rejected if they don't. Subscribe to support our journalism.

New JWST data dropped today, so here's my processed image!! 🔭 This is the NGC-3147 galaxy, located 130 million light years away, seen by NIRCam. That spiral form is so satisfying to see! HD: flic.kr/p/2qNkvdo

Yes, it is entirely correct to point out that ICE officers do not have any legal authority to break into somebody’s home unless they get a judicial warrant; which they generally cannot do, because judges only issue warrants for probable cause of crimes, not immigration law violations.

I think it’s not helpful to repeat claims that the administration is working on eliminating “DEIA” as though it’s some kind of corporate strategy; just say explicitly that they’re trying to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and explain how.

One of the funniest things about Spock is that once every seven years he gets so horny that he might blow up the ship or strangle the captain to death in pure horny fury but he doesn’t really think to let anyone know about it even though it’s been six and a half years since it happened last.

Dear Manager, 1. I drank a whiskey drink. 2. I drank a vodka drink. 3. I drank a lager drink. 4. I drank a cider drink. 5. I sang the songs that remind me of the good times; I sang the songs that remind me of the better times.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Man it feels so good to see these guys getting booed lol

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

Incredible news! More hospitals have returned to offering gender affirming care after Trump's executive order was blocked. Moments after publishing our story on hospitals returning, Childrens National DC announced a return to care. And JUST now, Colorado Children's is back to giving care! AMAZING

The USDA says "several" staffers working on the bird flu response were terminated over the weekend, and "we are working to swiftly rectify the situation and rescind those letters."

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

Sonoma State University in California is threatening to cut its Dept of Physics and Astronomy. This would be a huge loss for the students and community! This is a reminder that the sciences are not safe from political currents. 🧪🔭⚛️ Learn more here: www.savesonomaphysics.org

“Forty-one U.S. senators could use the filibuster to block most legislation that enables the funding of Musk’s companies. With 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents in the Senate, such a push is numerically possible, though politically difficult.“

I am so tired of learning evil information!!!!!!

First shutout of the season for Aerin Frankel ✔️ cc: @pwhlfleet.bsky.social

If you needed to make a case for a) this tournament or b) a longer OT you couldn't have asked for a better first game

Mitch Marner gets the OT winner for Canada

These are research grants awarded through evaluation of their merits by scientific peers, in which the investigators are carrying out important, ground-breaking work. They're being targeted because, as required by NSF guidelines, they include some investment in benefits for the broader community.

In response to headline “Cruz-Led Investigation Uncovers $2 Billion in Woke DEI Grants at NSF, Releases Full Database” I want to re-emphasize that all these grants were public record and written in response to public solicitations supporting DEI content. No “uncovering” or “releasing” was done here

if i text you this just know you’re cooked

The almost explicit position of these groups is that anything more than a token number of black and Hispanic students in an elite institution is de facto evidence of anti-white racial discrimination.

They found a way to litter from space

liberals love to complain when there’s protests under democratic presidents and then love to complain when there is not immediately larger protests under a republican president. the throughline is they don’t participate in either of them

Wright On! It's 2-2. After back and forth in the neutral zone. Fluery disrupts play and Shane's line is off to the races. #SeaKraken

they want to erase us completely. do not let them, we will outlive these fascists. create art, take pictures of yourself or your trans friends, make something lasting. we will outlast them forever

BREAKING NEWS: Research and basic information on subjects ranging from tuberculosis surveillance to adolescent health disappeared from federal health agency websites.

Let me see if I have the timeline right here. Monday: OMB Memorandum M-25-13: White House orders "pause" on all federal grants & loans starting Tuesday 5pm Tuesday: Federal judge issues (literally) last-minute block on pause Wednesday: New OMB memo (M-25-14) says M-25-13 is rescinded

BREAKING NEWS: The development follows a federal judge's order Tuesday that temporarily blocked the effort to pause federal payments for grants and other programs.

H5N1 Bird Flu Spreads Rapidly Through California Dairy Herds The USDA has confirmed that five more dairy herds in California are infected, bringing the total number to 732. As of now, 74% of the state's dairy herds have tested positive for the virus.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

All I’m saying is, if Pluto were orbiting Jupiter it would be the fifth most interesting moon of Jupiter.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

PLEASE do not feed raw milk to your cats. Or your kids. Or yourself. #H5N1

People: What productivity software do you use? Me:

If you don't realize that nothing hits harder than a glass of cool, crisp water, then you haven't found the right water yet

2-1 #SeaKraken That's the Wright way to execute a power play

Sarah Nurse, jailbreak goal! Tie game, 1-1. That's how you kill a penalty.

i think Drake’s only option at this point is try to appeal to Liz Cheney

BOOOO NOOOO BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK!!! This image is fake. Let’s not let fake science accounts thrive on Bluesky!!!
