The choice when writing up your paper: you can work really hard so that someone else can quickly understand what you did, or you can do it very quickly so that the others will need to work really hard to figure out what you did, unless they simply give up trying..

The all-or-nothing framing is how you know it’s a scam. Whether it’s issued by a man at a bar or a sales rep at a tech demo it’s the same truth. People who don’t want you to THINK before you act ARE STEALING FROM YOU. Where is everyone’s survival skills??

“Historically, no one lived past age 35” "I’ve heard so many versions of this claim, including recently from a menopause doctor (implying menopause is not “natural” because noone lived long enough to go through it). Every time someone states this “fact,” a demographer loses a piece of their soul"

There’s a really good science community on TikTok. Mainly undergrads and PhD students. Lots of room for faculty to get on there and post about what our lives are like and how science is being dismantled.

I have spent less time in the last several months doing science than I have during my entire career, because so much of my time is taken up dealing with Federal dysfunction. So if Lynne Partner wants scientists to get back to doing science, I have some suggestions.

Watching people interact on here, I see how we collectively have ended up in the nightmare we’re in. We have smart educated people refusing to empathize with people who have less education, time, money, & general resources, expecting them to perform at a high level to move forward/fix problems.

The newest budget numbers out of NSF are... not good. We're looking at worse than worst case scenarios for U.S. research universities. That's in addition to all the other attacks. Every person w/ a word processer and an hour of time should be penning an op-ed to their local papers this weekend.
