Wednesday’s hail was no match for our solar panels. The shingles however took a beating.

Ron Johnson’s office number is 202.224.5323 if you want to call him about getting congress back into session now.

Does anyone under 18 know about the Artemis II launch? None of my kids heard about it from teachers, friends, or social media channels (gasp).

Happy Halloween to those that celebrate!

If you’re at #ASMS2025 come stop by my poster (ThP304) to learn about how we hacked an RGA to measure trace atmospheric species using low cost RF oscillator circuits!

"People will not lose their Medicaid if they can overcome an impossible obstacle course of administrative burdens we are imposing precisely because we know people can't overcome them" - would be more accurate, but less catchy. 🧵

It's been years since I spent a day fiddling in the lab. Testing the frequency dependence of our ion guides using @stevenjkregel.bsky.social slick flange mounted RF oscillators. #WisconsinOscillator #opensource pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Yesterday, I confidently had my kids ride the school bus during a tornado watch. Why? Because NOAA scientists create realtime products that allow us to evaluate severe weather. I can't imagine a world where AI generates products I trust more than this.

Shout out to the disabled community for always showing up, always being on the right side of history and justice, always willing to put their bodies on the line, all for the cause of making sure *everyone* has the basic dignity of health care.

Got mine today as well. Apparently, studying air quality is "no longer consistent with EPA funding priorities."

This is truly misguided. How about going after dental floss manufacturers that produce floss that is upwards of 25% PFAS that kids rub all over their teeth every day?

Let's see how the 4 yo does on @lisacadmusbertram.bsky.social final exam. "Scribble scribble scribble" she says.

An affordable (<$25k) EV that is half the size of a modern pickup. I hope this comes to market as promised. Midwest innovation and manufacturing. www.slate.auto/en

Madison, WI #HandsOff 🥰🥰🥰

Madison showing its colors!!! Wall to wall from the capitol to the campus. 👊🏻🏳️‍🌈🔥

See a trend? Every single county.

Wisconsin has spoken.

Why AI won’t replace scientists capable of making disruptive conceptual breakthroughs - they pose questions that challenge, rather than align with, the training data set thomwolf.io/blog/scienti...

Big (bad) news: the US Embassy air monitoring program webpage has been taken down: www.airnow.gov/internationa... This erases ~17 years of a critical data source at ~80 US diplomatic posts around the world. Critically for the health of thousands of foreign services officers, critical for research..

Most people are not political scientists using formal definitions. So I am curious when is the moment that people tell themselves "oh, I live under an authoritarian government now." Because what else is this? www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

@cwiedinm.bsky.social has co-authored a fantastic conversation article on the massive effort that underpins weather forecasting ☁️🌀🌧️⛅❄️⚡ theconversation.com/noaas-vast-p...

Glad to see our elected WI representatives taking some action.

Students interested in #NASA and/or planet Earth 🌍 should really consider applying for SARP.

Very nice to see these high-quality theoretical calculations for the formation of thioperhemiacetal from HPMTF that was proposed by Chris Jernigan in pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

I won't be at #AGU24 until Tuesday evening after two fantastic students from our team give their talks.
