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.

And here’s the thing: a lot of people have no idea what’s going on, so when we talk about it, it sounds like we’re being hyperbolic or spreading conspiracy theories. Which means we really need to be talking about the impacts of Project 2025 in everyday interactions with neighbors, coworkers, etc.

Okay I'm going for a walk to go touch some moss. Go find some moss, everyone. Touch it and whisper to the tardigrades inside your hopes and dreams.

no entiendo cómo es que a los 2 segundos que empezó este gobierno ahora sí a todo mundo le preocupa la gripe aviar que se ha estado cociendo desde el verano pasado sin ni la más mínima prevención por instituciones gubernamentales???

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT CRASH OUT. Folks are relying on you to be overstimulated, overwhelmed, & overcome so you won't resist. Take breaks, Take a breath, Be intentional with how you spend your time. Be effective with how you spend your energy. Support each other Rest, live, & fight another day.

Me encantan esos videos que ven cosas comunes en microscopio. Ponen un pedazo en un portaobjetos bajo un microscopio óptico y la imagen es de gusanos y tierra obviamente vistos en un estereoscopio.

Organizarse es un imperativo político. No hay una única forma de hacerlo, no hay que volverlo una cosa de superioridad moral, el cómo y cuándo depende de tus condiciones materiales. Pero organizarse es el primer paso para pasar de una postura a una acción política.
