Happy Mother's Day, y'all! A few years ago I created this absurdly over-the-top fever dream of a medley. A stream-of-consciousness Mother's Day tribute through music and lyrics. 80 bits from 70 songs by 50 artists woven into a 16-minute musical journey. Enjoy! youtu.be/spAa5rU0Lgg?...

Was super fun to work with @sciencecomedian.bsky.social on this video Check out the original paper here wildlife.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

It was fun contributing to this video about weasels!

Hey San Francisco & Bay Area friends! Thursday night I’m performing at the @exploratorium.bsky.social ! Come see me! www.exploratorium.edu/visit/calend...

Some of the purges have nothing to do with DEI, but are Stalinist removals of disfavored officials. At DOD, Mark Esper and Mark Milley had their portraits removed. A mural featuring Anthony Fauci has been removed from NIH. (I'll keep updating w examples) www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

New, from me: Trump is whitewashing American history, removing not just people, but also the stories, images, and values to anyone who does not conform to his impoverished vision of America. Here is a partial inventory. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whitewashi...

ICYMI: “Arlington National Cemetery has scrubbed information about prominent Black, Hispanic and female service members and topics such as the Civil War from its website”…in order “to remove all references to diversity, equity and inclusion from its online presence.”

An independent trans sci-fi short film - partially inspired by an old Queen song of the same title!

Happy Pi Day, y'all! And happy birthday to Albert Einstein! He would've been 146 years old today! It’s sad when they're taken from us so young 😢

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

Not the party of free speech...

Remember who your true enemies are. The enemy is the fossil fuel industry. The enemy is the billionaire who paid for right wing propaganda & misinformation. The enemy is not your fellow working class people who fell for that misinformation. When the working class tears itself apart, the rich win.

Privatization is NOT good for everything!

Donald Trump is lying to you.

⬇️

The corporations and billionaires who run them are taking over our government. Five major financial institutions were all under federal investigation for fraud. All five cases were just dropped by Trump and Musk. It's now legal to cheat consumers. www.npr.org/2025/02/27/n...

Just one of the many moments of perjury during the confirmation hearings

The media isn't properly covering what’s happening in science... please amplify! This is happening in many fields... www.instagram.com/reel/DGgYXs7...

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Scoop: As federal health agencies are gutted, Kyle Diamantas, a Florida attorney w/ a slim resume + no prior gov't experience, is the new head of food safety at @US_FDA. Turns out, he's Donald Trump Jr.'s hunting buddy, @vanityfair.com is reporting exclusively: www.vanityfair.com/news/story/f... /1

We took selfies before it was cool. Way back in a previous century. Happy birthday, Mitch! We sure had a lot of adventures.

If you make less than $360k/year, your taxes are going up. But if you make more… you're finally getting that much-needed break.

Insanity. Watch this play out. If the republicans are so concerned about the deficit, please explain... www.instagram.com/reel/DGWcEIr...

Who expected a former NFL football player to be on the frontlines?

NEW YORK (AP) — Dow tumbles 748 points, and S&P 500 has worst drop in 2 months after discouraging reports on the US economy.

Totally normal way to threaten a governor. Watch the clip...

If the Republicans are trying to save us money, why are they giving a tremendous tax break to the richest people in the country? Please listen to this from Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy ...

What happened to the Republican Party? Do they really support all this?

⬇️

"If you give people money, they’re gonna save a lot of it." Rich people. You mean rich people will save it. Most people will have to spend it.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

We are watching the literal death of expertise

Ok I need a word for someone who isn’t a Kapo because he’s not under duress but is Jewish and collaborating with a Nazi Collaborator seems too weak www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Investing in science is a great return on the dollar, not to mention the other benefits. Like having an advanced society with world class medicine and technology. Cutting these budgets doesn't help us at all - it costs us.

🔥 “Wake the hell up.” Former RNC chair @michaelsteele.bsky.social goes in on Elon’s infiltration into the federal government, accessing everyone’s personal info

The tech bros have taken over and It’s way worse than you think..watch this …help us spread the word and figure out how to petition SCOTUS now to stop them immediately. Don’t wait another hour. It’s dark scary shit that is going down. Do it. Now! youtu.be/5RpPTRcz1no?...

Making America healthy again by withholding health information from the public

Making America healthy again by pulling back on the monitoring of disease outbreaks!

"Trump’s administration has launched a full-scale attack on veterans, their families, and federal workers who support them. ...Now, veterans and their families are being left to fend for themselves."

By not calling it a coup, the mainstream media is failing to communicate the gravity of what is occurring. By @rbreich.bsky.social

From the official account of the whitehouse on the platform formally known as Twitter. A disgusting way to recognize Valentine's Day. Does this reflect your values as an American? Not mine.

Let history record, that the Roberts Supreme Court Republicans and the Republican Party bear the responsibility for the attempt to install a dictatorship in USA. When the free world has thrown the Oligarchs out, and cleaned up in the Chaos, their names will live forever in infamy.
