Setting sun at Freshwater West, Pembrokeshire, UK. I enjoy trying to balance the speed of the water movement with the slowness of the shutter to capture some texture in the dreamy, molten metal sea. #Stunday #Scape #EastCoastKin #landscapephotography #photographersofBlueSky

I’m confused. If this @indactonma.bsky.social post is from 6 days ago, why did I get a post from @mass50501.bsky.social two days ago, and then a separate one this morning, urging people to show up at the Marathon? Because that plan seems reeeeally ill-advised. 🤨

The Trump Administration has made a shocking claim: that it can declare living people dead to cut off their access to government benefits and the broader U.S. financial system. Thread on my colleagues’ new blog 🧵 www.cbpp.org/blog/trump-a...

Don't be caught off guard by the warm sunshine around Boston right now (5pm). A line of heavy downpours with gusty winds, some lightning, and small hail will crash the party. Expect a rapid temperature drop when the rain arrives, too. On wbz and wbz.com now

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

Under the Biden admin, the expected number of years Medicare has before it runs out of money increased by 23 years - from just around the corner to nearly a quarter of a century from now.

Donald Trump's admin will stop at nothing to restrict access to health insurance. Their newest effort makes it harder to enroll through state marketplaces and limits options. That's why I'm leading my fellow governors in demanding Dir. Nelson withdraw the proposed rule.

Benzodiazepines can help us feel like the world is a little less scary. Seems like they do the same for salmon—which probably isn't good for the fish. That and more of the best from @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪

As someone directly affected by this, let me be clear: I'd rather lose my job because Harvard chose to fight than keep my job and see a generation of white supremacists parade its corpse around like a war trophy.

There is a PR narrative quickly emerging about “entitlement” of elite universities, as if this $ is some sort of subsidy Harvard & others must counter this quickly The $ doesn’t flow into Harvard’s coffers - this is grant money, most of which goes to research the govt has agreed has social value

for public libraries, ILL provides access to college-level books our city or county systems won't have room to shelve (public libraries focus on high-demand fiction and popular works). Even as the loss of ILL affects college research, it also affects public access. Musk just killed libraries.

It’s been pretty hot in Tucson lately. I came upon a man next to my car, with water shooting everywhere (and a big knife). Super wary until I realized he was cutting open a water bottle to give to the Walmart crow. That crow was so happy and thirsty. It started drinking immediately. 🐦‍⬛ 🌱 🌌 💧
