The spitting anger in his voice when he lost it over Democrats not standing up and applauding him: "THESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY" is recognizable to every woman who was about to be hit, and I'm afraid, to a few abused children who experienced the real DT spitting anger at them.

personal item. As a first generation undergraduate and then PhD I had no idea one could be an art restorer. I want to be an art restorer working in the basements of museums. That is more important, I think, then the other educational disadvantages.

What percentage of Americans know that Bad Bunny is American?

Every American needs to watch this:

Trump's constant degradation of female reporters is unsurprising but the press corps' collective decision to treat it as background noise is actually kind of sickening

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

Unf*cking believable.

please jesus is it not time for the rapture

Trump on Kathryn Burgum: "I saw them riding horses in a video. And I said, 'Who is that?' I was talking about her, not him. I said, 'I'm gonna hire her,' because anybody that has somebody like you to be with, it's an amazing tribute."

Can someone at least ask him for the evidence???

Fanone wearing a Dropkick Murphys t-shirt while making good trouble in the Smith hearing has let my withered heart grow a few inches

OK, so MSM is still Trump-washing. Why are the headlines not "President Trump Has Ridiculous Meandering Presser That Proves He Must Be Removed From Office"?

he's sad about Renee Good's death because her parents are Trump fans

Someone come and get your grandpa; he's babbling incoherently again

Detente, thy name is canine.

For Jesus’ birthday this year, he’s asking for affordable housing, universal healthcare, and for people to stop using his name to explain why they’re being cruel to strangers.

saying it louder.

Time to post the amount of $ spent on holiday presents that you no longer know for whom they were bought. $$ only; no names of presents, because Uncle Kevin may still believe you bought the cat massager for him. I'll start: $79.80. Approximately.

In a nutshell.

It would be nice if their fellow journalists would stand up for the female reporters Trump routinely bullies. He'll do it again. Make a plan for it. Act collectively.

I'm a 64 yo woman science professor but i'm thinking about when i was "coming up" there was one way to "do" science - endure the constant hazing practice known as the academic #tenure track. ACK. What if #creatives in the science world could just. do. science.

@seandstacey.bsky.social looking forward to #addmicrobiology and interacting with the cool cats.

Yasss Jinkx!!!

Sick of everything being Orwellian or Kafkaesque. I demand more Scarrylous situations, where animals drive vehicles and run small businesses.

Remember more than 80% of US federal career employees work outside of the Washington DC area. EPA is shutting down its scientific research division, which helps keep our air & water safe. It’s overwhelmingly staffed in Cincinnati, Ohio, with ~1000 employees there. The OH & KY Senators don’t care?

Can’t make this up.

We polled Nature readers to ask if they were thinking of leaving the US for jobs abroad. Three-quarters of them (who said they were US-based scientists) said yes. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

RFK Jr is an ignorant racist who buries his genuinely life-threatening agenda under a vague, fluffy rhetorical coat of bullshit pseudo-science and nobody should give credence to even the most anodyne things he says

The administration has canceled 45 RECOVER #LongCOVID grants. These grants examined pathology, & were vital to understanding infection-associated chronic illness as a whole. Half of those with #LongCOVID at 6 mo. meet criteria for #MECFS. 🧪 cen.acs.org/policy/resea...

Had the same thought. We are so desensitized to so-called collateral damage, it hurts my heart.

Currently Facebook has a stranglehold on good folks. We tried to move off into Bluesky, but Bluesky is more Twitter than Facebook. So many people rely on Fbook for family notfications, etc. Why is there not a woke (proudly claiming that) new Facebook? Or have I missed it?

I assure you I am not sitting out the shit show. But I am setting myself to highlighting, in simple terms, life's tiny joys. Feel free to add your own. For the inaugural joy, I offer: Getting the salty side of a wheat thin on your tongue.

This is fantastic. Share widely. samwang.substack.com/p/an-action-...

My whole side-gig (from Professor) is traveling to colleges free of charge to them to discuss teaching under-resourced students in the sciences. Under-resourced is a targeted word.

So much trauma being inflicted by this "administration". This one illustrates that there is no one with a single brain cell monitoring which buttons are being pushed ON A WHIM. Meanwhile the most precious resource in the West is wasted. www.cnn.com/2025/02/03/c...

Covered up. Erased. Cryptologists of color were similarly treated. What fresh hell is this?

Please ignore my recent upbeat post of the beauty of nature. It was a lapse. This is an EMERGENCY. Dems: stop with the measured responses, Schumer is fiddling while Rome burns. Get angry, dems! Show citizens that we should be outraged. Or we sheeples will just drift into the Trump hellscape.

Hello Sunday.

Please, something.

Not saying I'm tired, but I* just jolted awake and petted my sweatshirt piled on the couch. *fill in the blank with many many things #moving

I am with dozens of Utah scientists, healthcare providers, and educators who urge Senators Lee and Curtis to vote no on RFK’s dangerous nomination. The health of Utahns and Americans is at risk. www.sltrib.com/opinion/comm... @sltrib.com @gregggonsalves.bsky.social
