My nearly hour-long conversation about #ScienceUnderSiege earlier today with Mike Collins of @npr.org @wfae.bsky.social #CharlotteTalks: www.wfae.org/show/charlot...

I'm a little bit confused (rhetorical, I'm not) about why we're not hearing more from the Democrats that Donald Trump fired a bunch of federal employees and a government shutdown where only ICE and the military get paid is completely in line with his plans and funding goals

Hundreds of doctors, concerned citizens, public health professionals, and science allies joined us in Washington DC to let the world know: RFK Jr. has got to go! #ImpeachtheQuack @apha.org @moveon.org @physiciandemocracy.medsky.social @pnhpnymetro.bsky.social @drsforamerica.bsky.social and more

Nope.

*loudly and with my whole entire chest* FUCK ICE

Lots of people have lots of opinions about our strategy at @standupforscience.bsky.social, here is my response: Be the change you want to see in the world. YOU go stand up an impactful 501c3 & 501c4, hire a kick ass team, build grassroots, fundraise for your efforts, and do it all in 8 months 💁🏻‍♀️🙏🏼

SCIENCE ON THE MOVE! The march has reached HHS, where stacks of petitions are piling up! FOLLOW ALONG ➡️ www.youtube.com/live/3Hi18Fv...

TODAY IS THE DAY. We’re gathering with science organizations to call for RFK Jr to be impeached and removed — with boxes of 150,000 petition signatures in tow. Join us for our march in half an hour! www.youtube.com/live/3Hi18Fv...

@cdelawalla.bsky.social speaking now. “Science is political,” she says (correctly).

The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani. The president and his allies came after him. Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute. He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters. His politics can win anywhere.

Let’s fucking go. @standupforscience.bsky.social is ready to roll!

serious note: they're gonna try 5x harder to sabotage the midterms after tonight and we're gonna have to organize on a literally historic scale to stop them

My quote of the day I remember being 18 and being fed up with everything - fed up with society, fed up with the political system, fed up with myself - and then you kind of go, 'Actually, this voting thing is amazing,' because you have a chance to change it, right? Cillian Murphy

There will be a million hot takes in the coming weeks, but something I’d like to highlight is how, at the end of the day AUTHENTICITY won. I hope the trend of electing officials who are unapologetically genuine, charactered, imperfect on paper, and a product of the location continues!

What we know, final edition of the night: [Now in 3 parts] —Prop 50 wins —VA Dems flip Gov, LG, AG —Dems gain leg seats in VA, NJ, & MS —Dems defend NJ-Gov —Dems win NJ+VA trifectas —Mamdani wins —PA Dems win state supreme court —ME anti-mail voting measure loses —GA Dems flip 2 statewide offices

Allahu Akbar Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem Thank you for Mamdani and the great American New York City. Keep the people safe as they celebrate. Protect Zohran and his family and give them wisdom. *meditates* Ameen. (Did I do it right, Greg?)

Period.

I really needed this, you guys. 🥹

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

this is genuinely wild

I was going to come on here and yell about Kornacki not wearing his khakis. But!!!! I’m good with the grey chinos if that’s what he’s wearing to call a blue wave.

LET’S GOOOOOOOOO

My grandma says they come in threes.

This is the way. @theonion.com

This magazine just fired all of their politics staffers

STARTING IN ~30 MINUTES!! @standupforscience.bsky.social

i feel like most people's arguments for daylight savings are at root just complaints about the existence of winter in temperate latitudes. no amount of messing with the clock will change the basic reality that it gets dark in the winter. permanent standard time is the way to go.

Hello from Time-change-with-a-toddler Land! THE SCIENCE SUGGESTS THAT YEAR ROUND STANDARD TIME IS BEST. I know it’s the least of our worries right now, but let’s get some data driven policy going and end this hellscape of twice a year time change. med.stanford.edu/news/all-new...

The Trump Administration had to be ordered by a judge to feed people. They were perfectly happy weaponizing hunger. They escalated the cruelty. They do not value American lives. Until the full amount of funding is flowing, we will be working to Keep America Fed. Join us! ➡️ zurl.co/ZN6se

WE HAVE WARS AT HOME, DJT! Such as the war on cancer (cancelled), the war on hunger (cancelled), and the war against preventable diseases (cancelled).

A court had to force Trump to keep Americans from going hungry — and he's still only covering half of this month’s SNAP needs. He won’t meet to reopen the government or do the bare minimum to feed people. And he couldn’t care less that health care costs are about to skyrocket. Shameful.

I have an idea: Could a mega-billionaire please collect all these brilliant, world-class journalists who have been laid off over the last few months and make a new giant news network, please?

This is disgraceful @teenvogue.com

RFK is a danger to the health of our nation. Join us in DC to deliver 100k petition signatures calling for RFK Jr. to be impeached! 📣 🚨 911 March for Health and Science! ⏰ November 5th, 3:30pm ET 📍From the National Mall to HHS HQ (200 Independence Ave SW) INFO and RSVP 🔗 in bio!

We've got you 👍

Get involved. Get Inspired. Tonight, on Zoom, with #StandUpForScience

JOIN US TONIGHT to learn how to stand up a rapid response to the SNAP crisis! Monday 11/3, 8pm et/ 5pm pt REGISTER HERE: zoom.us/meeting/regi...

The American people started this month off with higher insurance rates and canceled SNAP benefits for millions. Meanwhile, Republicans are still getting checks for doing nothing! Are we great yet⁉️

Teen Vogue possesses more integrity and professionalism than NYT and WaPo combined.

this is America

So, are we all about to try to sit through this damn interview?

Ow my favorite Bible verse: “And Jesus said ‘Never ever give anything away without strings. If you do not force your own biased value system on a single mother so she can feed her children, depart from me for I do no know you!’” Matthew 20:25

Pro this, but they have to frame it as "what does it mean to YOU to have a good life?" And build a vision toward helping people achieve it, while explicitly acknowledging that a "good life" might look different to someone else and we should support that too.

What’s crazy to me is that Dems really could rise above the Trumpian fray and run a coordinated, locally appropriate, utopia-flavored midterm platform…and then do it and build an effective and diverse Left. The people want food, healthcare, parental leave, trains, and fucking peace & quiet.
