The incoming NIH Director has repeatedly stressed the importance of open science and open data. Now petabytes of NIH-hosted research data are about to be lost on his watch. www.404media.co/nih-archives...

"‘Point-Blank Range’: How Israel Executed 15 Medics and Rescue Workers in Gaza" Writing for Zeteo, Diana Buttu says she had a difficult time writing this essay because she could not stop thinking about the level of evil needed to carry this out.

Hi, I'm @mek.fyi and for 9 years I've run the @openlibrary.org at @archive.org, where 11M patrons world-wide rely on us to preserve society's library books, many which can't be accessed elsewhere. 🎲 Markets, politics, employment could change: I pledge to keep Aaron Swartz's Open Library OPEN 📖. Why?

You see the right also support redistribution of wealth, they always have. It's just from whom it's coming from and to whom it's going that you really have to question.

All around the world, healthcare professionals rely on research conducted in the US. Some of this data has taken years and decades to collect. Losing it is nothing short of a tragedy. This is the modern day burning of the Library of Alexandria.

How could you not? I know it may feel like it has been a decade. But that was just a few months ago.

New in PN: Trump’s third term threats are not a distraction "When Trump talks about a third term, it’s not just a distraction. It’s as close as he gets to telling the truth. He's an authoritarian who hates the Constitution and wants to rule forever. That’s a message which we ignore at our peril."

California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas (D-Salinas): "there are currently more kids with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes in the NCAA. That's the epidemic we should all be worried about."

I wonder how History will depict him

After cutting social security, we can’t imagine a more direct attack on senior citizens than this. Dementia is one of the biggest health challenges facing seniors (and their families) today.

Look. Fuck the USA, they are the world police and the modern day empire. HOWEVER, Russia and China are also fucking terrible. In the past, the US was a mildly better choice, but not anymore. We need real multipolarity but Russia and China shouldn't be thought of as our saviours.

Researchers who study job loss say these mass layoffs not only are disrupting the lives of tens of thousands of federal workers but also will reverberate out to their spouses, children, and communities. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

The action taken against Marie Le Pen is necessary for the preservation of democracy. This is the paradox of tolerance again. As contradictory as it might seem. If we toloreate the intolerant, they spread their hate and intolerance. If you're anti-democracy, you don't get to use it to overturn it.

Exhibit 72,489 or whatever at this point that THEY WANT YOU DEAD.

The real outrage about the Yemen Signal group is that it called for attack on civilian home — Senior Fellow and @costsofwar.bsky.social Director Stephanie Savell comments in this @theintercept.com article.

The Internet Archives is one of the most noble organisation with one of the most vital missions, the preservation of human knowledge and culture. Nowadays, with the dominance of digital media that can be taken at any time, for any reason, it is imperative that make sure it's still accessible.

With almost 700 million cases every year globally, 200k deaths particularly impacting low income countries. This disease is highly contagious with children under 5, the elderly and the immunocompromised being the most vulnerable. This would be an incredible developement. Anti-Vaccine = Pro-Death

It's damn time the entire world gives Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm another read. It seems some have taken it as an instruction manual.

Seeing how unreliable Trumps word is and how he can flip-flop, this could be nothing. BUT EVEN IF HE TURNS BACK, it shows that they are feeling the heat. You can push back. Infact, the world needs you to fight harder than you've ever fought, America
