I don't think we're talking enough about the fact that the pressure to remove DEI from science means women die.

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

Unlikely Request: Do I know anyone who is flying to Hamburg Germany tomorrow? We just got our voting papers, and apparently there is no way to get them to Germany by Sunday with either UPS or Fedex…

Science in the US is under attack. Science is the foundation of modern life, from clean water and medications to communications and transportation. Science isn't perfect, but we can't fix it if it's gone. Now is the time to defend it - #StandUpForScience2025 standupforscience2025.org

Yikes. I hadn't seen this video yet, only read about it. It's legitimately the two of them laughing on the most watched cable TV news channel as Homan directly calls out the "agreement" they came to, even as the DOJ is inisting there's no agreement. This should be filed in court...

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

I believe in the rule of law, everyone deserves a fair process. But if you can get out of a trial with apparently overwhelming evidence (note how nobody is disputing that!) by selling out a whole city of good people, you gotta go! Sign this and call Gov Hochul right after! I am in line now!

If you live in New York State and think Gov. Kathy Hochul should remove the corrupt mayor of NYC, give her a call or send her a letter.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

I am trying to be hopeful and steady in my engagement at the community board but discussing bakery signs while there are ICE raids happening in our neighborhood and our feckless mayor is planning to reallow ICE to operate out of Rikers is just surreal and infuriating… bit.ly/3EEvWqP

Ok now that massive cuts to science funding, and universities are very much a reality, @columbiauniversity.bsky.social is going to announce any minute that the president, dean, etc will all take a 50% paycut to support their „unwavering“ commitment to science, right? Right?

I wish I could spend my free time playing video games, but the world is burning and so here I am reminding @schumer.senate.gov to do his job! Thanks to @indivisible.org and @socialists.nyc for organizing!

So everybody saying we don’t need to worry about any of this stuff because it’s not legal. When do those legal folks step in and turn everything back to normal? Is that happening Monday? Tuesday?

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

NYCs food carts are hiding. It is very noticable in in various parts of the city. Seriously fuck this shit! If i have hope for any kind of solidarity or majority coalition it should be NYers in support of their coffee and bacon egg and cheese! #ImmigrantsBuiltThisCity #FuckNazis

This an ugly way to begin the four-year process whereby Americans relearn that the US government a) does all kinds of things they need but don't even know about, b) well, despite c) being chronically understaffed.
