Tariffs. Stock market down. Medicaid slashed Secret police throwing anyone who looks Latino in unmarked vans. National guard and marines deployed in LA. No end to the wars in Gaza or Ukraine Bombing Iran This is the worst first six months of any presidential term in my lifetime.

Congress? You awake?

Looking forward to good conversations and good trouble 💪🏽 #LoudActions

My Canadian university, Queen's, is offering TWENTY 4-year funded PhDs (40k CAD/yr) for a student of ANY citizenship who has been accepted at a top 100 US university but have had offer rescinded OR are reconsidering offer due to US policy. Details found here👇 www.queensu.ca/grad-postdoc...

Seguimos buscando voluntarias 📣 🥳 apóyanos en esta gran labor!!

This is 3 steps above important information for all, particularly aimed at people in Florida. Thank you @johnmoralestv.bsky.social for speaking up 💪🏽🙏🏽 #LoudActions

I took the day off yesterday to advocate for planetary science with new and old friends at @planetarysociety.bsky.social. One of my fave things about earth and planetary science is also something that makes the US special, so any proposed cut to science is very concerning to me as an American.

This is a very useful thread by @veron4ica.com --> for those wanting to include and/or learn + about using #AltText PS: While labels are important, actions speak louder than words. So let's keep the loud actions to increase access, accessibility, and all the keywords many can't use. #LoudActions

A few days ago, President Trump issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NPR, the latest in a series of threats to media organizations across the country.

Here's a long form story about the Trump EO opening Pacific Islands Heritage to industrial fishing with lots of quotes from people in the US Pacific territories, including me

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Thrilled to hear from Dr. Cisneros @juliamorphology.bsky.social about bedforms and all things sand at GMU COS @georgemasonu.bsky.social Yes, GeoLatinas, presente! 💪🏽💜 @geolatinas.bsky.social 🤗

Restoring, reflecting, sharing, and celebrating. What a better way, than with inspiring people. @berondam.bsky.social what a pleasure to have connected with you at such a special gathering. #mentoring #convivencia

There is something beautifully peaceful about Union station before dawn. Now more than before, peace is needed to sustain the soul. Let’s look out for each other, the work continues 💪🏽💜

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

This is great🙏🏽 @volcanojw.bsky.social !! Alrighty folx, we gotta share in plain language & help uninformed see AND feel the impacts of poor-inhuman management. The kind we have now running this country. Share your favorite plain language translator, here is 1 anythingtranslate.com/translators/...

Some folks have asked, given recent news, “how do I show my friends/family the impact of NSF?” We have some easy Fact Sheets for you! Here’s a brief thread about this website: new.nsf.gov/about/fact-s... which hosts a ton of useful one-pagers.

Today's column: "Courage. It was the absence of it from allies and people of conscience in 1942 that led to 110,000 people of Japanese descent — including my family — being forced by the federal government from the West Coast into incarceration camps during the war."

I bet every single one of you have heard "it takes a village to raise a child". Maybe you don't know, but it also takes a village to "raise" scientists. People like Margaret have been pivotal in supporting my work as I grew into a scientist, through rich conversations besides funding. Heartbroken💔

if you think of musk, vought, the doge guys, etc. as hired mercenaries, the picture becomes much clearer.

And here is a list by @onairplanemode.bsky.social “list of companies that are committed to DEI” as of 22 hrs ago.

Where to buy things? Have u used this app? Just heard of it & welcome ur thoughts. In theory app “will tell you the political donations made by the company and its senior employees.” If only there was an app that showed whether a company supports human rights, DEI, social & environmental justice…

Also very relevant: in which I argue it's time for science and scientists, particularly if our science has moral implications, to ditch the myth of neutrality. www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks...

If you want to support climate activism, here's something simple you can do RIGHT NOW. Follow the people in this starter pack, and amplify their voices by sharing their messages regularly! go.bsky.app/Nn28kF3

I like this climate action short list because even when things feel overwhelming, at least one of those ideas opens a door (or a tiny window) to small, intentional, collective action. Thanks for re-sharing this @katharinehayhoe.com 🫶🏽

Feliz año nuevo! Happy new year!🎆 While 2024 was a year full of changes and loss for our family, it was also filled w/silver linings & beautiful memories🫶🏽 May 2025 bring you peace and courage to be the change we need to see, w/silver linings when needed, & beautiful memories paving the way🤗 Hugs
