I went to the pet store to get cat litter and saw a betta fish with bad fin rot and took him home and put him in a heated, filtered tank and named him Jimmy. Today I will add cycled filter media and replace the silk plants with live ones. I also ordered a smaller but equally powerful heater.

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

I’ve been getting into school spirit now that I’m about to graduate

Pusheen hat season

I have something due for capstone every Monday until 12/9 and then I present it on 12/11. So so so close to being done. So close.

ok?????

Hilary Duff’s new single is so good pls

When DNA’s structure was in doubt & suspecting his competitor Rosalind Franklin knew more, James Watson goaded her, and Watson’s own memoir describes this in unbelievable condescension (he called her “Rosy” “Medusa” “Loathely Lady” “Wicked Witch of the West”, criticized her clothes as unattractive)

(they’re not, but they think you are)

Maybe the 7pm energy drink was not my smartest idea.

You ever drunk dial your senator?

primary every last dem senator

The Democrats are not capitulating because they are scared of Trump they’re capitulating because actually countering fascism in Ways that would stop it would also impact their money flow and the wealth of those at the highest level of the economy and business they represent.

I hope no one lets any elected official to pretend to forget about this. They want people to starve.

I have been listening to @fivefourpod.bsky.social archives. In 2020, @notalawyer.bsky.social made a stray comment that Alito was going to launch hunger games in 2025...

I've been so focused on finishing my MPH this semester that I haven't given much thought to how I'll feel when I am not constantly busy with work, homework, capstone, and studying. I'm also losing my graduate research assistant job, so I'll only be working part-time until I get a new job. Help.

Fuck it eat the court

It's irritating that they describe the effects of his racism as limited to causing controversy within science and reputational consequences for himself rather than giving an immeasurable boost, false veneer of legitimacy, and idiot-friendly prestige to modern scientific racism and eugenics.

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

My applied categorical data analysis professor thanked me for my investment in her coursework and said I'm fun to have in class. I feel like I just got sent home with a good report card.

Assistant to sleep dentist I haven’t seen since before visibly transitioning: Have you had any surgeries since we saw you last? Me: [lists gender affirming surgeries I’ve had] Dental assistant: Okay, and are you taking any medications for… that?

Readers in Arizona, Michigan, & Georgia! Your senators have been getting a LOT of dedicated pressure to end the shutdown, without fixing healthcare. If you have a minute, go ahead & give them a call! Their job is to respond to constituents & they're mostly hearing from GOP voters rn.

If you’re ever desperate for a Times article, there’s a 90% chance your local library offers free digital access to the Times with a library card. it’s their job to do that for you. you do not have to pay for it yourself. Cancel your sub

I talk to the press professionally, I'm really, really, really good at it. So please, please believe me when say you cannot turn this interview request into anything good, it will do only harm. Harm to you, harm to your child, harm to other children.

Republicans running anti-trans hatefests lost and Zohran Mamdani is a hugely vocal supporter of trans and other LGBTQ rights. That is MASSIVELY important to look at and run on. Roll around in all this & soak it in. This is the good shit, & it should be celebrated. And then it should be Built on.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

I explained some weird statistical syntax and interpretation things (mostly hats and nonsensical intercepts) to my wife last night while I was going over one of my biostats midterms and she has now determined that math is the silliest subject. #episky

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

I voted for @mikiesherrill.bsky.social and in my local elections. Among many other things, I hope she’ll follow in @govmurphy.bsky.social’s steps to protect trans rights in New Jersey. I can hope, right?

And I guess I have a second ask, which is: consider the well-being of the most vulnerable people in your communities as you do that.

If you haven't voted, and you have an election today, GO VOTE NOW.

i hope this is how you find out about dick cheney

YES YOU SHOULD VOTE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS TOMORROW EVEN IF MAMDANI IS NOT ON THE BALLOT WHERE YOU LIVE

Some people waited in line up for 14 hours to receive a food box from a church giveaway. 500 people volunteered to help and they still ran out of food. Remember for every one person a food bank feeds, SNAP feeds 9. By turning off food assistance the regime is starving Americans.

Kristen Wiig? From Ghostbusters (2016)?

If you're a rich guy having a Gatsby party you have to do the book all the way until the end.

To the men who are still explaining Wonder Woman to me in replies… you don’t quite get us, and that’s OK. We love you anyway.

Got my commencement date! It’s in May but things are starting to feel real.

Hi! My wife is doing critiques in exchange for a donation to support those facing food insecurity as a result of the upcoming loss of SNAP benefits for millions of Americans. Contact her if you want to participate or if you need food or know someone who does!

Update! I have 3 slots left. I also had someone reach out who needs directed donations for food. So if you’re interested, please message me and I’ll tell you where to donate, then we’ll set up a critique or AMA. :)
