The entire business model of American R1 universities is not viable without restoration of federal funding, & every individual institution pretending it can solve this problem alone is also not viable. University presidents need to be speaking out, collectively & loudly about this, in DC, right now.

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

Massive industrial chemical explosion flattens Parker Lord Corp facility in Saegertown, PA. Toxic fire burned for hours, and residents were asked to shelter in place. Good thing the DOJ, FEMA, and EPA are being eviscerated by the Trump regime.

Read this thread to see all the words no longer allowed. I used to work in a genetics lab while I was in grad school (working on a male related chromosomal disease), and this list is seriously going to stop so much research. It is devastating. You can't even say female.

Thank you, I’ll have plenty! I used to crochet a long time ago and just started knitting a few weeks ago. It’s been a great way to stop doomscrolling and reflect 😌 I’ve finished a Sophie scarf and have started a sweater. (I’m waiting for more purple yarn & am casting on a new cardigan as I wait 🫣)
