Even in the best case scenario where Isaacman is trying to help, what he's doing is dangerous for the future of #NASA. www.spacescout.info/2026/05/op-e... #SaveScience #FundNASA @roguenasa.altgov.info @aas.org @agu.org @planetarysociety.bsky.social @ucs.org @scientistrebellion.bsky.social

The face of someone who’s devoted their life to service, science and space exploration needing to listen to some draft-dodging, out-of-shape bozo brag that he easily could’ve been an astronaut.

Two photos. Same room. Same flags. Same astronauts. In one, the President stands with them, smiling, centered, human. In the other, the President sits scowling, rambling, diminished. Four astronauts. Two presidents. And the faces tell you everything.

HAPPY MAY DAY! A little inspiration for today’s actions: Check out this episode of Unruly Subjects with AAUP Council member & NYU professor Chenjerai Kumanyika: “Getting Unruly on May Day: Education Workers, Labor Power, & the Fight Ahead." @chenjerai.bsky.social @higheredlabor.bsky.social

Today is the day! May Day! General strike! No work. No school. NO SPENDING! And tell your friends! Allies of the regime are making it harder to get the news out about important events like this one! (You can also sign the May Day Pledge to let organizers know how you’re participating.)

HAPPY MAY DAY! Today, from coast to coast, higher ed workers are rising up to demand a system that serves the public good: one that is affordable, protects scientific research, free speech, & academic freedom, & strengthens our democracy. JOIN US! Find an action near you:

Elon Musk was paid $158 billion by Tesla last year. That is double the entire budget of the U.S. Department of Education.

#MayDay is a reminder for workers to stand together. If you’re going to a May Day event, you can download this graphic and use it as a sign.

Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

Rapid response call today in just over an hour from now!

King Charles stopped by Congress to land some killer jokes and remind us about checks and balances

@samwang.bsky.social is running for Congress in NJ 12th District which includes #Princeton. Sam has been fighting for our #democracy for years! Ask him about how he'll improve our country once elected.

The @us-rse.bsky.social recently passed 4000 members! This is such a wonderful organization of Research Software Engineers ( #RSE ). I'm so happy to have found such an amazing community. We wouldn't be here without our 4000+ members, including those that founded our org! Thank you all!

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social what are we doing in #California?

The @us-rse.bsky.social recently passed 4000 members! This is such a wonderful organization of Research Software Engineers ( #RSE ) and all that support them. I'm so happy to have found such a wonderful community and am able to support our org!

Op-ed on the Flock cameras: stanforddaily.com/2026/04/29/a... This is much more than illegal data sharing. #AcademicFreedom is on the line as well! @stanfordaaup.bsky.social is trying to get lots of signatures, so circulate widely if you can! Here's a flyer to circulate as well. #RemoveFlock

$25B is a significant underestimate of this war. It's at least 2.5x more, $66B as of today, and probably even higher as we are essentially just estimating the munitions. Check out @indisocialmedia.bsky.social. We could have paid for many services! #costofwar irancost.com costsofwar.watson.brown.edu

The National Science Board isn't the only science advisory group to be dismantled in the past year+. We've all been hearing about them, but now @nature.com has some numbers for us. This should concern EVERYONE. www.nature.com/articles/d41... #SaveScience #FundScience

No work, no school, no shopping. #MayDay #boycott #ProtectLabor

Thank you @lofgren.house.gov, as usual ❤️ #Congress needs to do everything in their power to stop this. This is the administration trying to find ways to not implement the January #Science Minibus. democrats-science.house.gov/news/press-r... @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

Today, April 21st, is election day in #VA. Virginians can use their vote today to fight against this "not war", illegal deportations, the dismantling of our science infrastructure, and everything else this administration is doing to destroy the country and our #democracy.

Google is trying to seriously limit the ability to install any apps not registered directly with the Play Store. Making it difficult for independent developers and destroying open source on android. Details: keepandroidopen.org Petition: c.org/2H6bvHhj2Y pluralistic.net/2025/09/01/f...

Amazing turnout for our Day of Action to Save NASA Science! Truly inspired by the dedication of our members and advocates who are here with me in D.C.

Validation out of the House Committee on Science, Space & Technology. #NASA A-Suite was actively implementing the President’s #FY26 Budget Request, despite #Congress having not passed an enacted a budget. democrats-science.house.gov/imo/media/do... #SaveScience #FundNASA @roguenasa.altgov.info

Everyone should write to @chu.house.gov and @repdonbacon.bsky.social to thank them for leading the Planetary Science Caucus to reject the #FY27 #PBR. ❤️ bacon.house.gov/news/documen... #FundScience #SaveScience

Hundreds of scientists are running for office. We see the damage and danger to our democracy. Me: “I am deeply unhappy with how unequally power is divided in our society. I have used my abilities to level one part of democracy’s playing field: by repairing unfair elections.” eos.org/research-and...

NASA’s Artemis II Reveals the Basin in Full For the very first time, the mysterious Orientale Basin has been fully photographed. Thanks to Artemis II, humanity now sees the Moon in unprecedented detail, reminding us of the endless wonders beyond Earth. 🛰️

This week is Black Maternal Health Week — and Black women are still being ignored, dismissed, and disrespected, especially during pregnancy and childbirth. Over 80% of these deaths didn’t have to happen. This is your reminder to listen to Black women.

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.

May Day will be a nationwide day of economic disruption, as we flex our collective power to demand an end to the oligarch-enabled Trump regime. The central action will be to engage in little-to-no economic activity on May 1 — that means no work, no school, and no shopping: maydaystrong.org

Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

"The Peace President." This madman must be removed from office. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/trump-threat-whole-civilization-will-die-iran-war-deadline-hormuz-rcna267059

#NASA is asking us to reduce #SDO (and JSOC) funding by 50% over 3 years in our senior review (also reflected in the FY27 PBR), but the #FY27 #pbr proposes 100% cuts to SDAC and other Helio archives. WHO WILL HOST THE 25+ PETABYTES OF SDO DATA??? #spaceweather #FundScience #heliophysics #data

#NSF Geosciences gets a 58% cut, including 48% for NSO. But it gets worse: Biology gets -72%, Math and Physical Sciences -67%, Computer -63%, Engineering -75%. nsf.gov/about/budget/fy2027 #Heliophysics #PBR #FY27 #FederalBudget #SaveScience #FundScience

Thank you, @nature.com, for covering that the administration is trying (again) to dismantle science in the US. www.nature.com/articles/d41... @altgov.info @standupforscience.net @scienceandsanity.bsky.social @ucs.org @scientistrebellion.bsky.social

This might be the best 2 minutes of silence I've ever heard.
