Introducing my dog, Rosa. Her favorite things are barking randomly, sleeping, eating, and being dramatic. #dog #dogsky #dogsofbluesky

Wow. This app made it SO EASY to speak to my elected officials. Such a simple user interface - all I had to do was enter my zip code and I immediately accessed step-by-step guidance on who to contact, how to contact them, and how to voice my thoughts. Do it! You'll feel better. #politics #tech

Per an NIH source: “Discussions with colleagues have suggested that if the universities all come together and raise hell about the delays to funding caused by not holding meetings, that might move the needle. From every state. There are well-funded universities in red states that will be impacted.”
