I am just a microscopist with social anxiety. But seeing #Covid impact on the brain through the lenses of the microscope has affected me. It’s hard not to feel for the millions sick everywhere. Below is a 2021 video about our research. Can we please keep talking about #LongCovid?

160 years ago today, the last enslaved Black Americans were freed. Today is a reminder that there is no economic justice without racial justice. And the labor movement is committing to fighting for civil rights and justice for all.

This is a cover-up‼️ DHS is illegally trying to change the rules on congressional oversight visits to facilities to hide human rights abuses. “We know that they’re trying to hide all those abuses. That’s why it’s important that we can just get in at a moment’s notice.” – Rep. @gomez.house.gov

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

DHS wants 72 hours notice before inspections of detention facilities. Kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

Jon Ossoff and his wife announced the birth of their new baby on June 2. Unsurprisingly, he has missed almost every single vote since the end of May, as he should (spend time with the new baby). But he came back for the first time yesterday....to vote for the crypto industry's GENIUS Act.

So Starship Ship 36 just detonated *before* the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.

In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled that incarcerated people have a right for their claims to be heard by a jury in cases where access to the prison’s grievance procedure is at issue. This is a step toward making justice more accessible for people in prison.

BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court upholds Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors. Robert, for the 6-3 court, holds that the law is not subject to heightened scrutiny under equal protection and passes rational basis review. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

The Supreme Court just upheld an unjust ban on gender-affirming care. This ruling is nothing short of a full-fledged license for states to discriminate against vulnerable kids who are looking to live their lives authentically.
