1. Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get your cookies from. Lets get our cookies from them this year in solidarity!

When you follow a leader, consider what would lead you to withdraw your support. If the answer is nothing, your integrity is in jeopardy. Your highest loyalty belongs to principles, not people. No leader deserves unconditional love. Commitment is earned through character.

I wrote an op-ed for the Albuquerque Journal about moments that shaped my journey as a young scientist and are being taken away from the next generation of scientists. Because, as any passionate scientist knows, funding is not all that is at stake.

I feel like too many folks are failing to grasp that something can be illegal and also still happen. “That won’t happen, it’s *illegal*” is a logically unsound statement.
