Trump can roll back climate policy. But he can't roll back every single solar project, every local coalition, every community fighting for cleaner air and a more resilient future. So, that's where this story begins. @sarahsloat.bsky.social with the latest from our Repairing America series

Frustration with a lack of solutions has turned vaginal supplements into a billion-dollar industry. But this could be a boon to scientists racing to develop vetted cures. My latest: www.theguardian.com/global/2026/...

when I reported on threats to mRNA research for @damemagazine.bsky.social something that came up frequently was how scared scientists were of losing funding, precisely bc their mRNA projects were already achieving the previously unthinkable

If you’ve felt exhausted, anxious, or numb in the face of nonstop political turmoil, you’re not imagining it and you're definitely not alone. @sarahsloat.bsky.social looks at the research on the psychological and physical toll of polycrisis.

i suppose it makes sense but it is completely demoralizing that we live in a moment where there is more video/photographic evidence (often from multiple angles) than ever before and also a durable system in place for propagandists to gaslight or convince others into not believing their eyes

I'm looking to get in touch with scientists in Minnesota. Best ways to reach me are here or LDattaro.73 on Signal. Thanks! #chemsky #neuroskyence

You can use ChatGPT for life advice—but should you? Experts told me AI guidance is much riskier than most realize. My latest for @theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/wellness/202...

When I reported on why some Oura ring users were uncomfortable with a Palantir connection, this is the sort of behavior that's why they said any link—however distant—made them so unsettled. slate.com/technology/2...

Conservatives had a meltdown over young women going for Mamdani, Sherril, and Spanberger, calling them miserable and insane. It's no wonder polls show this group is imagining a future elsewhere, a trend that's not happening in other advanced economies. news.gallup.com/poll/697382/...

New from 404 Media: you can't refuse to be scanned by ICE's new facial recognition app, according to internal DHS document I obtained.

I know *a lot* has happened, but remember when RFK said he could tell if a kid had "mitochondrial challenges"? I wrote about how that and metabolic syndrome became MAHA buzzwords, and what the science actually says. For @theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/wellness/202... 🧪

Threats to defund mRNA research are putting a substantial portion of the U.S. population at risk. How did something so promising get vilified? For @damemagazine.bsky.social, I reported on why scientists are horrified and how lies by omission make us vulnerable: www.damemagazine.com/2025/08/28/r...

@jennifernuzzo.bsky.social shares her concerns in interview w/ @damemagazine.bsky.social that cuts to #mRNA research could limit the development to treat other diseases. It shrinks the pool of researchers, push them into different fields, or moves them to work in other countries. More here ⤵️

Ending research for vaccines and therapies that don’t exist yet might sound bad but feel inconsequential for now. Then you'll have a loved one in desperate need. Here's my story on what we're losing and the researchers doing everything they can to continue the science. For @damemagazine.bsky.social:

The more I report on aging the more I notice that many of the “aging hacks” start in one place — the thing you need to eat, the exercise you need to do, the product you need to buy — but end up at a similar conclusion: Community is the key to longevity, and the ability to stay social is paramount.

Public health researchers studying cannabis want us to know secondhand smoke is more dangerous than most realize. At the same time, they know limiting public consumption puts equitable policies at risk. Here's my latest on a complicated situation: gothamist.com/news/why-the...
