i wonder how many videos of people dying my parents had seen at my age

The last few years have seen the largest wave of immigration in American history. All those images we carry in our heads about people arriving at Ellis Island — we just surpassed that. Crime went down. Real wages went up. This is a fake problem. Enough is enough.

Immigration is a fake problem. We have politicians on the one hand who want to use immigrants as scapegoats for our real ones and politicians on the other who are too cowardly to stand against them and tell the truth. That is the entire situation. Until that changes, people will continue to die.

Congrats KL Nikhil and collaborators on inventing MITE to map functional brain connections! Surprising take home: MITE reveals 5 cell types (based on their connectivity) in the mouse circadian clock which underlie the daily wave of gene expression. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

sometimes a masterpiece is too good to wait. from the upcoming show Strip Law, I give you the song "Pizza Party" (a song written for a scene where i was just like lets have some fun pizza party music and then composer Casey Trela went Mozart-level hard)

If I were a billionaire, I would just keep funding new seasons of party down for the next twenty years instead of taking Ls on social media.

FlyBase is one of the most important and useful resources I have used in my nearly 20 years of research. It would be a tremendous loss to the research community if it were lost or stopped updating.

elevators should play up/down-themed muzak when going in the respective direction - e.g., ‘i’m goin’ down’ (b. springsteen), ‘go down’ (ac/dc), ‘downtown’ (petula clark), etc., etc… up is ALWAYS creed’s ‘higher’

Science bluesky, what are your favorite papers that use single cell genomics to solve a real biological problem (not just an atlas paper)? Looking for examples for a class i'm teaching. #science #singlecell

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

Finally some good election news! Kick rocks, Jeff Boarini. Whiny NIMBYs not wanted in Evanston.

If the NIH gets messed up, there is no alternative. Not just in the US, but globally. It is by far the biggest engine of health research in the world. Which is why the idea that US scientists can just do their work elsewhere is a little fanciful. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/politicizi...

I think antitrust is not enough to deal with the tech industry. We need - and I know this era isn't one where we get it - a digital EPA, with quality standards for apps/digital services with personal liability for executives and real, meaningful mechanisms to force companies to stop hurting people.

Sure thing, Sharepoint. I want to open Excel in my browser. Why not. I want to open my powerpoint slides in minesweeper. I don't care anymore. I want to open a can of coke in a thirty foot concrete cube. Fuck it.
