Nick beat me to it, but excited to share this paper with first author Junho Kim in the Chirik lab! Really had to push the air-free-ness of my photochemistry chops to study these nitrides (5 coordinate, 16 electron).

WE GOT A PANETTI PAPER! Congrats @grace-panetti.bsky.social pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

"The grant appears to have been tagged for the repeated use of “POC,” an acronym often used for “people of color” but in this context meaning “point of care”"

This is revolting

Good job, Democrats. Truly.

That's what I wanted to hear.

The vintage shop dilemma of "is that an alternative fashion guy with his gf or a queer guy with a funky lesbian"

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

This is how it’s done.

I've been trying to explain this to cis people in my life for weeks and I keep getting variations of the "Are you saying Ben and Glory are somehow connected?" scene

I want to salute the Governor of Maine Janet Mills who, in that room with a raging Trump and silent complicitors, stood her ground and said, “see you in court!” Maine residents, show your support for your Gov for standing up for your independence.

"Why are you so against A.I./LLMs?" Because I've been dealing with them – against my will, I might add – basically for a year now, and I just don't see what the benefit is supposed to be.

Captain Chaos. What the fuck, man. Whoever you paid to come up with that ... You overpaid

Jeffries clearly does not have the juice or fire for this moment. Painfully so. We need charisma, clarity, and messaging that doesn't sound like it was written by a preschool debate club.

This is also the political result of prosperity theology. If you’re good and virtuous, you’ll be rich and healthy. Poverty and disability are your own fault This is fifty-plus years of Christians using the Republican party to legally impose their poisonous doctrine on everyone

the mild, non-confrontational obama formula for inclusiveness was so intolerable to a substantial chunk of the country that they put a outer borough george wallace into the white house. like, what are we talking about here?

RFK Jr: “Gardasil is probably the single worst, mass vaccine that we've ever seen.” @drneilstone.bsky.social: “The HPV vaccine (Gardasil) is safe, effective, and on the way to ELIMINATING cervical cancer! RFK Jr is an anti-vaccine fanatic who would rather your daughter got cancer than a vaccine.”

i tell this story every time these old photos come up but: I remember in film school one of my classmates asked what about film chemistry in the 1970s caused everything shot in NYC to look so brown and grimy and our professor was like "that wasn't the film, that's just what the air looked like here"

What's the process for replacing House Minority leader? I can't find anything super clear Congress wonks have any clarity?

Fuck. I thought McDavid had it.

"the Department of Veterans Affairs announced the dismissal of more than 1,000 employees who had served for less than two years. That included researchers working on cancer treatment, opioid addiction, prosthetics and burn pit exposure, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray, a Democrat, said Thursday."
