A deep dive from @lisalsong.bsky.social on the harm of the proposed OMB fed financial assistance rule examining whether we could have achieved Nobel Prize level breakthroughs like the Higgs boson under such policies. www.propublica.org/article/fede...

This review is like being Chotiner’d: “Unlike some of Nolan’s other films, The Odysseyis not boring, thanks to the source material, which is impossible to mess up entirely.” First paragraph, I’m dying www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Two physicists won the Nobel Prize for the 2012 discovery of the so-called “God particle.” Under a new rule proposed by the Trump administration, American scientists might be forced to watch similar discoveries from the sidelines. www.propublica.org/article/fede...

so apocalyptic I caught myself double checking that the NYT hadn’t accidentally fallen for AI

The cyclospora horrors keep multiplying, and now we have to worry about salmonella? I do not need grocery shopping to be this high-risk.

In February, USA Rugby banned trans women from all levels of one of the world’s most inclusive sports. What happened next was telling. Across the country, teams refused to comply. The story of the Baltimore Ferals, who are pushing back: www.thebanner.com/sports/rugby...

“It’s laughable to suggest that on the African continent, the prime issue of human rights concern is whites in South Africa,” one former agency official told ProPublica. --> This is where the Trump administration wants our tax dollars to go:

She was so enamored with the gentle, misunderstood creatures, her mom said, that for years, “sloth” became her shorthand for “I’m really happy.” --> Crucial, devastating reporting. Just a gut punch from the lede onwards. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

He was a young dad, working to give his daughter a stable life, before he was shot and killed by ICE after an attempted traffic stop. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Me trying to calculate the risk/reward of taking walks and eating fresh produce -- all boringly good things for your health! -- vs the heat/smoke apocalypse and the prospect of explosive diarrhea. This is not how I wanted to expend my brain power.

“One of the things that I really care about is making sure that we have transparent pay scales,” says reporter Cassandra Jaramillo, “While I'm very grateful for what I'm able to earn as a reporter, it's not the same story for some of my colleagues in different departments.”

Reporter Lisa Song says that it “just doesn’t make sense” for ProPublica management to require a rigid RTO policy. Our members work long hours and need a flexible RTO policy to do their best work.

NEW: A 5-year-old girl spent months in federal immigration custody here in Connecticut while her family waited for her release. Her case isn’t unique, experts and court records show. My latest w/ @jrabethomas.bsky.social at @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article... #nutmegsky

“We deserve adequate pay,” says copy editor Julie Kliegman, “That means salary floors that match the cost of living and annual increases that keep up with inflation.” Support us in our fight for a fair contract: propublicaguild.org.

Climate reporter Katie Worth wants to see fair wages in our contract, especially for our development team. “I think it’s only fair for a small portion of [ProPublica’s increased revenue] to go toward wage increases that at least keep up with inflation.”
