Appreciating spring beauty today

Yet another act of anticipatory obedience. The '27 budget is a *request* from the president. Congress can appropriate more $ to NSF (including SBE) if it wants. In fact... a bipartisan majority JUST rebuked POTUS' deep cuts to science funding a couple months ago! This is only over if we let it.

Boston's first responders partner with organizations like Pine Street to help protect our unsheltered neighbors. If you see anyone who looks like they need help during this blizzard, please call 911.

CMS makes it official: no plans to cancel physical Medicare and Medicaid data access, forcing everyone to use the VRDC enclave. Instead, some more paperwork to make and extend DUAs – which is way better than what they were proposing!

Some people are asking what I want Schumer to do. He should be screaming over medical care and access to facilities. He should be going to detention facilities himself and putting his body on the line, as he did at the border in 2019. He should lean into stories about New Yorkers in detention. [1/4]

Kristi Noem and her department’s latest attempt to mislead the American public regarding the brutal and unjustified killing of Alex Pretti is deeply shameful, and she must be impeached and removed from office immediately.

This is Alex Pretti. This morning he was murdered by ICE. Six ICE agents held him down and shot him at point blank range. Alex was a nurse and researcher at the VA. Our thoughts are with his loved ones and we stand united in action calling for the abolishment of ICE. #ScientistsAgainstICE

just to make that clear for the rest of the world, that's -9 degrees *fahrenheit.* -23 degrees *celsius*.

I can't believe this needs to be said... but ending universal polio vaccination isn't "freedom of choice" (as Milhoan puts it). Making all vaccines optional takes *away* our liberty, by putting all of us -- esp. those who can't vaccinate -- at risk of getting sick with vaccine-preventable disease.

I know I keep posting about this but every time I check, the list gets longer and longer and longer. Hundreds and hundreds of places, everything from huge local institutions to small spots that will definitely struggle. No exaggeration, it's the most astonishing act of solidarity I've ever seen.

One court decision, two different headlines. Guardian on the left, NY Times on the right. Which one more directly conveys information and the stakes to the reader?

Call your reps. Let them know that if they vote for ICE funding, you will not vote for them ever again. Representatives need to feel the heat. NO on ICE funding. No excuses.

This is sickeningly cruel and inhumane.

I’ll be surprised if it’s something besides “We hope our republican colleagues will work with us, otherwise we’ll be forced to write a strongly worded resolution opposing this.”

On Friday, my son stayed home from school because he had a sore throat and wasn’t feeling well. He went with my husband to his office for the morning while I handled our daughter. When he came back at lunch, he was not interested in eating, saying his throat hurt too much. 1/n

I was denied permission to host a roundtable at the Puget Sound VA to hear from women veterans about their health care. I have NEVER been outright denied from having open & honest conversations with VA—until this administration. I'm demanding an answer from VA Secretary, Doug Collins.

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

The lesson for universities is you may as well fight back. You'll lose the money either way. The only question is whether you keep your dignity.

An idea I’ll float here while I figure out how to operationalize:
