Microscopist - neuroscientist - gardener - mother - and all zen on the outside. Seething inside that collectively we fail to see the worth of each human, creature, and being with whom we cohabitate on this precariously delicate and unique planet 🌱
Wow. Just right there in the open. When will this be shut down?
Aaron RuparWARREN: Do you still work for Capital One today? JOHNSON: I do. I'm here today in my personal capacity W: Ok. But they're paying you to get confirmed for this job. I also understand they're letting you keep a bonus you haven't yet earned. They must be really excited about getting you confirmed.
Wow! Look what scientists can do when given resources to research. MJF foundation has been instrumental in funding basic neuroscience research that has helped him and countless others. MJK is an all around awesome person
Patrice 🇺🇦Michael J. Fox has had Parkinson's disease for 35 years. He is set to return to Shrinking next season after officially ending his 5 year retirement. He's one of my all time favourite actors!
I love this new litmus test - cuts right to the quick. And when science but not humanity is taken from the bible, how can we get anything but genocide and economic+racial+gender apartheid? Was dissecting a frog so traumatic that they had to turn their backs on all science?
Jess PiperI will not be listening to opinions on gender and biology from those who think women originated from a rib cage…
It takes but a minute to make your voice heard but if this OMB rule is enacted, the ramifications of politicizing science funding agencies could cause decades long impact. This administration has undermined science too much already, don’t let them do more harm!
Terry McGlynnIf you have time to browse bluesky this weekend, you have time to submit your comment on the proposed OMB rule to politicize science funding agencies. This one is important. Here's my comment if some inspiration will help. 🧪 scienceforeveryone.science/submit-your-...
“A foot of rain” Those are biblical levels of rain. How’s the Mississippi flowing downstream??
Progressive News ServiceFlooding in Missouri after foot of rain falls in 24 hours. "A location near Redmondville..., about 70 miles southwest of St. Louis, measured 12.25 inches of rain since Thursday evening. ....extreme rainfall is becoming more common [due to] planet-warming pollution..." edition.cnn.com/2026/07/10/w...
Mayor Mamdani becomes more amazing in my mind with every mention
Spectrum News NY1During the first installment of NY1’s new exclusive series, “Out of Office with the Mayor,” Mayor Zohran Mamdani and members of his staff showed off their soccer skills on the Gracie Mansion lawn — where the mayor has been hosting pickup soccer matches with New Yorkers.
This administration is absurd in its insistence that facts don’t matter
Jason ScottI'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
It’s criminal how much time and effort scientists today spend trying to convince the public of things everyone agreed on yesterday
Dr. Jonathan N. Stea90s scientists: “We cloned a sheep! We landed a robot on mars!” Scientists today: “Please stop drinking bleach and urine smoothies.”
It’s going to take more than midterms to salvage the exponential decline of American basic science and healthcare.
Baltimore BannerJohns Hopkins University lays off over 100 employees due to federal research losses
What gets me most about the media esp NYTimes is how they shape the narrative to usher in policy/events/ridiculous IPOs then raise their hands in disbelief when these horrible things happen. We’re left with screwworm and an empty Treasury. Who’s our next Hamilton to radically reshape our everything?
Good ole US of A putting our thumb on whatever scale we can. So embarrassed of my country. I’m a lifelong soccer player and fan and cannot bring myself to watch any associated games. Painful too bc WC season always meant midday matches in seminar rooms and unusual social bonding amongst academics :/
Rich BurroughsThis is terrible, and I think it’s likely far from the worst thing that will happen in this World Cup. I think it clearly puts the team at a competitive disadvantage, especially for the match they have in Seattle. FIFA should have moved their matches to Mexico.
