My student Samm rocked her presentation today at #TropMed2025 Acknowledgement slide featuring Scruffy (dog) and Snowflake (cat).

every company in 2025

Happy Whalesplosion Day to all who celebrate. Today we remember all mad, bad, and just plain wtf ideas.

Prasad and Hoeg are censoring studies showing the covid vaccine is safe. More great reporting by @lizzylawrence.bsky.social www.statnews.com/2025/11/12/f...

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

The climate link to immigration issues is so rarely discussed

Poster time! #TropMed2025

Your girl is fancy #TropMed2025

Arrived in Toronto for #TropMed2025. Y’all come say hi at my poster on Monday or Wednesday! It was 82F when I left Louisiana and it’s 39F here. 🥶

If you read and watch one thing today it should be this pice accompanying @agawande.bsky.social documentary. "As of November 5th, it estimated that U.S.A.I.D.’s dismantling has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children." www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

My son had a fracture in his face and boring nose. The AI bot taking dictation about the Ct scan of his face said that his ovaries were intact. So there’s that.

My students have a presentation in this yesterday and one of the solutions proposed was to tax the hell (I’m paraphrasing) out of corporations that do this to fund affordable housing

The headline you’re looking for is “Despite court order, Trump Administration denies 1/2 of SNAP benefits” , @startribune.com Emphasize the fact that he is denying, rather than providing. And that the law spoke, and he only partially complied www.startribune.com/trump-admini...

Salivating these girls for #science

It's assault. It's violent and it's cruel and it is illegal.

Personal threats to revoke the visas of negotiators' family members resulted in what this article called a 'major victory' for Trump Media's pretense of evenhandedness conceals a refusal to report plain thuggery. Shameful on so many levels

Happy “Learn how to set your car’s clock again” day to all who celebrate.

Blatant authoritarianism and the mindless injection of LLMs into higher education are both driving more and more academics to speak up about our social mission. A silver lining of sorts. We have been lazy to assume every understands our value.

42 million Americans will lose SNAP benefits tmw, and this is what the dude shares today.

Imagine identifying with a party that doesn't care if kids eat starting tomorrow.

Happy Halloween to this ridiculously photogenic void.

A person I interviewed for this story told me her 8th grader recently read Night by Elie Wiesel in school and observed “it’s sort of like what’s happening here right now” in case you’re wondering how things are going for Chicago’s kids.

The Trump administration is engaged in an unprecedented legally disputed campaign of bombing suspected drug smuggling vessels from the air. We are tracking the offensive here. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

10 New Insights in Climate Science report is out now just ahead of #cop30

Fox News did this during the Wisconsin Capitol protests in 2011. They showed violent protestors with palm trees in the background, claiming it was Wisconsin. In February. When our government and media collaborate to lie to people, fighting disinformation has to be a central effort of anti-fascism.

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing. Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

The US is seeing the largest number of layoffs since 2020, with nearly 1 million people losing their jobs so far this year.

Kinda like getting arrested for playing the Imperial March behind ICE agents.

Meanwhile in Louisiana... www.fox8live.com/2025/10/28/t...

We call this a Louisiana aunt. We have so many family members who may or may not be related by blood. But they are family!

Opinion: Global security is impossible without sufficient support for global health www.statnews.com/2025/10/28/g...

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97. 12 days of work in over 3 months. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Just gonna leave this here and see what people think. 👀

When discussing AI one of my students had an insightful question: What's the endgame? It seems to just be getting bigger for the sake of getting bigger.

Very encouraging to see CIDRAP's central role in this. They have been active in contradicting the anti-PPE and other COVID-related misinformation that has sometimes emanated from "establishment" public health sources, which provides a level of confidence that medical power games will be kept out.

I love this visual. I use sound and noise to teach the concept of ANOVA in my stats class ;)

For those who are wondering about grant proposal reviews in the USA

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will: MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR. Measles cases have reached their HIGHEST point since the disease WAS ELIMINATED from the United States in 2000. We are at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.

Top medical groups warn that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr poses a risk to US public health amid vaccine policy turmoil. Here’s the latest on the mounting pressure to remove him from the HHS. ja.ma/4n8weqs

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you? Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18 #NoThronesNoCrownsNO_KINGS 👑

Theyre all grown ass adults

Tito Puente Jr. because when the world is burning there’s still music.

"Usutu, which mainly infects birds, was first detected in London blackbirds in 2020 and has been found in birds or mosquitoes every year since, making it now endemic to the UK … Usutu often establishes first, with West Nile following as temperatures rise." theconversation.com/first-eviden...

i desperately want everyone involved in the destruction of USAID to have to, st the very least, answer to the american people for the suffering and misery they have caused apnews.com/article/myan...

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

For one, the federal government cannot constitutionally commandeer state officials to do its bidding. But more importantly, the president does not see his political opposition as legitimate but rather as a target for a carceral and militaristic state. It is deeply undemocratic and authoritarian.
