A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Anxiety for federal employee job security is hitting extra-high rn. While I'm only impacted by #grant reviews etc, my brother's situation is worse. His 2yo was just diagnosed with a rare brain tumor. We want to focus on her, not whether he will lose his insurance and his federal job spuriously.

The impact of the abrupt actions of the White House on NIH is real, and it's personal. The anxiety and fear produced is unnecessary. It's not just political points or livelihoods, it's people's lives .
