More tragic news about NIH and NIH science. Grant system is frozen and intramural program is being slashed. All will claw back on treatments and cures for cancer and other human diseases. This can’t be what the public wants. 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

people need to realize that the world isn't a book or movie- it's not even a limited series. we exist, crafting personal narratives out of what's functionally data; "cutting waste" will not fix a budget alone, sometimes the bad guy wins, people die for no effing reason. there is no perfect ending.

allons-y les amis. nous verrons.

friendly reminder that the actions of the far right are geared to cause psychological trauma to minorities while leaving majority populations relatively unscathed (apart from DOGE). It's a very effective tactic and one of the best things you can do is check on your friends and build community.

hmm decisions... existential crisis about our current state of government OR hug a cat?

Ten years ago, not a single ship that sank in the Middle Passage had ever been identified; the watery cradle of the African diaspora was an archeological void. A global network of maritime archeologists is working to change that.

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

Here’s last night’s story about the beginning of Donald Trump’s second term as well as some very upsetting statements about omelettes. You’ll see. youtu.be/cw0F8G4-dMw

cats are better than we deserve

hot take: I would really like it if the GOP stopped fucking with the CDC and NIH. illness is a threat to everyone and to national security. I like my family, friends, and neighbors not being dead.

This week, approximately 200,000 federal workers have been let go.

The sign says it all. Democrats are standing up for the middle class by fighting the Trump administration’s disastrous policies.
