I am an asshole. I won’t let her have her bones.

I accept all chicken flavored candy hearts.

As many of you know, I have a son with Schizophrenia and a profoundly Autistic step son. Loss or change of their medications would be devastating to their ability to live their lives.

Ready to slap every person who voted for him.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

Are we great now!

So does everyone get to bring their kid to the office now or only Elon?

I have been busy and am now exhausted

"The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. "This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments" - Dr. Lucky Tran

Exclusive: President Trump's nominee as Air Force Secretary, currently a top official at the national spy satellite agency, arranged a multibillion-dollar contract solicitation in a way that favored Elon Musk's SpaceX, according to seven people familiar with the contract reut.rs/4b7MUKt

I have only one question for Senate and House Dems: "Why hasn't Musk, and anyone else breaking into government systems, been arrested yet?" @wyden.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @baldwin.senate.gov @smith.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

A non-government business that contracts with the federal government received notice today that in order to do business with the government they must certify that they don’t participate in DEI.

For those in weather and climate that are...concerned about their methods of communication in today's environment, there is a guide to doing so as securely as possible here: www.csldf.org/resource/poc...

If ever there was time to signal distress it is now.

Chuck Schumer you are my Senator. Stop this crap and do something.

Deeply appreciate the congressman doing this, but at some point we’re going to need our elected officials to refuse to take no for an answer. Make them arrest you if need be. Force the issue.

Some very good friends commissioned @phineas.bsky.social to paint Daisy. I am just stunned and absolutely not crying.
