It is hard to convey how awful it is in the US now. We are attacked, disappeared, murdered by our own government. Our leaders have little regard for human rights, or if they do, are afraid to stand up. We are not blind to the fear and chaos we cause to those outside the US. Sending love and hope.

Thanks so much, happy that it motivated discussion!

Great to talk w @HumanChapters about being a scientist in an equity related field in the current US. Said some things I’d been wanting to say. youtu.be/BiUfKnWd2n8?...

Thank you, @ashajournals.bsky.social! We are thrilled to get this work out into the world.

Thank you, Jo (and @carolinebowen.bsky.social ). Things a bit overwhelming here so I haven’t been sharing this new paper as I should. I am so happy that you find it fascinating. Made my brain hurt to get these thoughts formulated as well as we did…very smart co-authors to thank on that account!

In two hours, I will join friends for a 4th of July celebration. Like so many of us in the U.S., I do so out of a need to join w others who love this country deeply and, at the same time, who are horrified by the ways that our government is trampling on human rights. Have mercy.

Congrats to my friend and colleague. Her work will advance understanding of developmental language disorder! #DLD #DevLandDis

How fucking "fascist" is the VA going to be? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

So sad, but thank you world for making opportunities for these early career scholars.

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

This was a labour of love and learning for our research team with @sarahmasso.bsky.social leading this work with a cool analysis that helped us as clinical researchers reflect more deeply on culturally responsive practice in paediatric speech-language pathology. Open Access. #bskySPEECHIES

This is repulsive

"Stories like Smith’s are also a grim reminder of how desperate society is right now to reduce women to their reproductive capacity." No, not society, misogynistic white men who believe they are diminished when women control their own bodies and fates. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When historians look back at the actions that mark the decline of the US as the leader of the free world, these cuts to science will be viewed as the central cause of American failure to adapt to the challenges of the future. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Of course they are. White women are livestock. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

THIS. A must view.

What does the American home look like without Chinese products?. This very smartly executed build by the @nytimes.com looks at the many essentials that are likely to become more expensive with the new tariffs. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Trust the historians to make sense of the present. Yes, you should be worried. Yes, you should act to halt our precipitous decline into authoritarianism. www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n...

Dreamt of my beautiful Baxter last night. Bestest boy ever and so clever. Did not drive my mini (as far as I know), but could have. youtu.be/gRN_L3nTlLQ?...

This is very cool! Congrats to both of you on such an important paper (a few of those citations are mine...)

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

This just breaks my heart. Lost in the news cycle. Autistic, with cerebral palsy, and now dead because the police wouldn't listen to the family and neighbors.

“we are up against an ideology that has given up not only on the premise and promise of liberal democracy but on the livability of our shared world – on its beauty, on its people, on our children, on other species. The forces we are up against have made peace with mass death.”
