The problem with 5 Calls is it’s not 5 calls. It’s a 20-item list and the same 3 asshats. So I call them 20 times on 20 issues? I need a better strategy. (Don’t worry. Still calling.)

I lost my job at the National Science Foundation yesterday, along with 167 of my colleagues, including some dear friends. This was the best job I've ever had, and I thought it would be my last. The PI community has been sympathetic and supportive, without exception. I will miss working for you.

Shocking but not surprising: A public records request has revealed that over 1,000 Idahoans emailed the House Rev & Tax committee about HB 93--Wendy Horman's school-voucher bill. 94% of the emails opposed the bill while just 6% were in favor. #idpol www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/e...

In 3 hours and 35 minutes, my youngest bio-kid was born in 2010. (The universe has decreed that I can only birth children in February, in the 43rd minute of an hour.) She is a gd delight and I will definitely commit crimes for her. That I may have to do so is just stupid. But she’s great.

While we stood outside and screamed, “DO YOUR JOB”.

Heading to the protest today. A good reminder from Heather Richardson: don’t stop doing what brings you joy. Authoritarianism only succeeds when we are too afraid. MORE drag shows. MORE strong women doing sh*t. MORE celebrating Black excellence! MOREMOREMORE. See ya there! #boise

Re-upping this for federal workers in Idaho. If you've been laid off or are worried about how DOGE will affect your employment, please reach out. If you're worried about going on the record, I'll do everything I can to protect your identity. #Idaho

Anyone in #Idaho planning a group visit to our illustrious US reps while they’re in town? I have some pitchforks and I’m not kidding.

I’m oscillating between helplessness and over-planning. My over-planning includes: 1. Getting real good at washing all produce (for when FDA fails) 2. Getting 90 day meds 3. Gravity water filter (shhhh I didn’t say I was sane) 4. Enough rice to kill a man. What are your weird planning quirks?

What an utter crock of crap. I have words to say to the Dem who flipped.
