We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

Zelenskyy is courageous, tireless and a good damn hero for his reaction to the full-scale invasion. HE deserves respect. Trump, Vance and all the fascists could never be that way as they are spineless conmen and cowards. The U.S. President and his ilk deserve contempt. Damn them all to hell.

The U.S. government has put up a submission form for reporting schools who teach kids about “DEI.” It accepts file uploads. Internet, you know what to do enddei.ed.gov

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

James Webb Satellite took a fantastic shot of the Planet Saturn with it's Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). This is just an Amazing shot that shows the planet and the rings in brilliant detail.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

Folks, this is a five alarm fire. Congress must stop Trump and Elon's coup. Call your rep now (202) 224-3121 This isn't just a battle for checks and balances. It's a battle between democracy and dictatorship.

Suggestion to Americans: If you used a current bank account with funds on a recent tax return, it may be wise to contact your bank and request a change. Account and routing numbers are accessible, and Elon Musk’s staff have access to this information. Stay safe and protect your assets.

This is VERY good news. Love bookshop.org and all the stuff they do! www.salon.com/2025/01/28/b...

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Our people across #MD08 are rightly demanding answers about President Trump's systematic destruction of federal programs and the civil service. Federal workers—I'm convening a webinar on the latest developments and resources to fight back. Sign up to gain access upon its release:

My 2025 hobby is helping my pals de-centre tech from their lives. Acquire CDs, records, DVDs, paper books, reference books, magazines, dictionaries, etc. Go to the library! Going analog is a small way to stop relying on tech bro monsters & helps preserve knowledge they're literally deleting.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

Every news thing now is like “law enforcement agency dissolved: all power to Zod!” and then the Dems posting “iron workers have been the backbone of American industry for 100 years, and now tariffs are breaking our promise to them”

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

NBC News is being kicked out of its space in the Pentagon and replaced by OANN.

Message to the whole #FBI workforce from Acting Director Brian Driscoll:

hey question, is this bad?

Here are the Democrats who voted to confirm Doug Burgum as Interior Secretary today. They don't think stopping Trump at every turn is necessary. It's all business as usual for them.

Please understand something. The Trump administration knows if courts enforce the law this anti-trans executive order is dead on arrival. They want you to obey in advance, which will make courts less likely to enforce the law.

Some wilted 🥀 #red roses because I’m not the best at remembering to water things, for #JanuARTy day 27. Tbh I’m kind of glad I forgot to water them because I think this pic or really neat. Took it as a painting reference then never painted it. One day, maybe.

Please don’t neglect @caulfieldtim.bsky.social, @drsturg.bsky.social, and especially @matthewfacciani.bsky.social! ✊ #misinformation

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

Trumpers fully support his decision to pardon insurrectionists — just don’t get into the details

All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

My NIH study section that was to meet tomorrow was one of those canceled. This represents many months of work by the applicants and by the NIH staff and reviewers. Devastating is the correct word.

Christians are supposed to prioritize mercy #maklelan2521 youtu.be/IB8P6R6ZLGo

Hell yes, Hank! Ally to all 🏳️‍⚧️

I don’t have an opinion on TikTok because I’m on Bluesky and that means I’m over 30 years old and most of my opinions are about Tylenol and what’s on Hulu

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

As we start the new year, I would like to remind everyone that it is now almost 120 years since the US decided consumer protection - by which I mean regulation - mattered. Given the upcoming presidential inauguration, let's talk about how that happened - and why it's so important. (A thread)

“he worked in tech, I’m sure he could afford healthcare” oh my sweet summer child
