My friend from graduate school found out that funding for her NF1 project got pulled. From $25 mil to 0 with a stroke of a pen. NF1=Neurofibromatosis Type 1, an inherited genetic disorder. Both of us are early career scientists. 🧪🔬🧬 #Science #AcademicSky www.wired.com/story/the-ch...

It does no good to fact check Trump. People do not accept the facts. Democrats need to figure out a strategy to attack the lies head on.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

We are full on Nazism. The White House Press Briefing going on now is staged and obviously not a free press.

Trump just blamed the media for confusing the public about his sloppy federal monies freeze. But the Whitehouse rescinded the freeze. Is there no way to stop his firehose of lies?

Scout was dreaming. I wasn't sure if he was chasing a rabbit or one was chasing him!

I just heard that Trump shut off funding for the bipartisan infrastructure bill. If this is true, we need to put signs up at all the crumbling bridges that won't get funded and post a picture of Trump's face with the caption "I did this."

Reading "Mainstreet" novel by Sinclair Lewis. Published in 1920. Wow. The more things change....Sinclair writes about the social issues of the times. That is: poverty, ignorance, biases, class distinction, bigotry, etc. If you have read the book, I would love to hear your thoughts.

Taylor Swift has donated a whopping $250,000 to Operation Breakthrough, a nonprofit that provides programs and child care for children of the working poor. The money will be divided between a jobs development program and after school child care services for families. Simply amazing.

Does anyone know if McCarthy has elbowed anyone in the kidneys lately?

"I was staring at the stars and the moon kicked me in the ass." Quote from a hippie dude that tripped and flew over a campfire, rolled, stood up and made the above proclamation. Yosemite National Park, 1979.

Back at the hate club, I often wondered if my posts were seen at all. Not sure what that was about. If you see this post, could you drop a heart or any of those little doodads on me?

I appear to be the only one that likes my posts.

Why are people saying that Trump is not a convicted felon because he has not been sentenced yet? Hoping a legal mind might clear this up for me.

As, I am sipping this morning's liquid gold brew, it occured to me that so many people out there still believe the Capitol Police invited those maniacs with makeshift weapons into the Capitol for a tour on January 6, 2021. Who takes a tour with a pitchfork in their hand?

We’re not accepting complaints about the Hunter Biden pardon unless you also complained about the Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Paul Manafort pardons.

An "earful" of cedar waxwings. Enlarge to see them. I took this photo outside of a restaraunt in Northern California. #birds

Tuned in to a discussion about education on the news last night. Popular conservative was yapping about reading, writing and arithmetic. I assume he never heard of the Leave No Child Behind Act under George W. Bush, to whom he served as a special assistant.

This is my first post on Bluesky. That other place was too hateful. I am looking forward to meaningful interaction, real news and information and some good stuff.
