Omg Stop giving this guy a platform! 🌲

"To put it bluntly, an X post today receives less than 3% of the views a single tweet delivered seven years ago." If you think it is necessary to be on Twitter to communicate your fact-based worldview, the reality is that worldview is being smothered.

Also would be very cool if we can have 2 b1g teams in the championship

Welcome home, jellybean and charlotte

😃 In a new article published in J Biomech, Maemichi et al. indicate that the heel fat pad’s morphology and mechanical properties differ across sports disciplines, likely reflecting adaptations to sport-specific loading patterns. 👀 buff.ly/M2yb8KW

Just a reminder that 1yr ago today many dedicated NIH employees received RIF notices and started the process where many others were told they must leave their positions/ICs after years of service. The pain felt across the scientific community in the last year is also felt by those serving it.

Delighted to share the latest issue of the Journal of Anatomy, a really rewarding project to work on with fellow Guest Editors @floragroening.bsky.social and @fabqu.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14697580...

An inappropriate relationship at Ohio State? *shakes head* No, it's THE inappropriate relationship

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

Lots of good quotes here, and I think if anything good comes out of this awfulness it will perhaps be academics rethinking our reflexive obeisance to prestige and wealth. "...the notion of the meritocracy is completely revealed to be gendered bullshit.” - @dannagal.bsky.social

in fact you do not have to show your ID when you board a train in the united states, you only need to show your ticket (which can be purchased without an ID)

The purpose is to disincentivize investments in vaccine development

How much did the government spend on this horrible fucking ad?

You still have time to apply if you are interested in joining my lab!!

nevermind spanish, some of you have three days to learn how to dance

Martinez took five bullets from a CBP agent, and DHS went into overdrive claiming she was an armed threat to the agents who were merely defending themselves. Sound familiar?

"Why is it so normal for law enforcement — those who are supposed to be keepers of law and order — to kill Americans? And why is the only question at the end of the day how much their victims deserved to die?" Read more from @sarahjeong.bsky.social: www.theverge.com/policy/86745...

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

I think the lesson for the Trump administration is they did not have to change the law, or win a court case, to get universities to do what they wanted.

New, from me: Defenders of police abuses will sometimes talk about “bad apples” spoiling the barrel. This is the wrong metaphor for ICE and CBP. The barrel itself is rotten. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/past-the-b...

Oh hey there's a @possumeveryhour.io

AOC: What we saw today was a horrific act of violence. What we have seen and are now seeing is that ICE has not just become an anti-immigrant force—it is becoming an anti-civilian, paramilitary organization. People are being taken off the streets for exercising their free speech rights.

Its...not an unreasonable question to ask who is running a country of 30 million people after you kidnapped its President. Its not a gotcha or optics, its pretty important.

Uh wtf

The "Hard Truth" about how hard it is to publish in Development. We wrote this to really drive the point that we are a discerning community journal, and we really want to publish your best developmental and stem cell biology contributions. journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...

one great thing about generally ignoring Jordan Peterson is on the occasions when he does crest the timeline you go oh wow, somehow he looks even worse, even death has rejected him and his decay is eternal

OMG Is today festivus? It is !!!

And she assumed it would be easy because it was a topic she had an opinion on and so did not need to do any research. This is the epistemic world view of the ignorant, and, apparently OU leadership.

They say it is unethical, because it is unethical.

Great piece about my dear friend Melissa Hortman. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Simply outrageous!

@jeneyer.bsky.social and Cynthia Harrison (www.votecynthiaharrison.com) have put forward a resolution to codify the removal of the signs and put a timeline on the work!

Very much reads like they are significantly reducing the influence of peer review on scientific funding, which under the current regime opens the way for more politicized funding instead.

This guy gets it:

Got to admit this was funny, Spotify. Anyway, get in touch if you ever decide to stop ICE advertisements.

Taking apart the racist "Tough on Crime" Neighborhood Watch program is far from over--going to the National Neighborhood Watch Find a Watch Program (nnw.org/find-a-watch...) still lists over 2400 program nationwide, and surely many of them similarly have signs that should be removed.

In 2020, I started to run every street in Ann Arbor and noticed the Neighborhood Watch signs around town. I was curious and learned that they came out of the 1994 Crime Bill effort for "community policing", and are part of a deeply racist tradition that aims to exclude people that "don't belong".

Who has made this 🤣

Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.

I love whenever articles like this are all “SEE THE UNREASONABLE ANGRY DEMANDS OF THIS SJW TEACHER” and the teacher’s comment are always “please actually cite sources and try not to call your classmates demonic”
