Let's highlight some heroes 🧪

This is so so so cool!

Evolution is amazing - xenoparous reproduction

“females must clone males of another species because they require their sperm to produce the worker caste. […] males from the same mother exhibit distinct genomes and morphologies”

Fuego en la tierra, rabia y puñal
Contra el estado, Lucha ancestral!

My linocut portrait of Katherine Johnson in a upward gradient of raspberry to purple ink (she is a Black woman in a shirt dress, with pearls, glasses and a watch, holding a pencil, facing left with her arms out on an unseen table like she was writing, looking at the viewer over her right shoulder). Behind her on the right is the Project Mercury rocket with capsule and launch trajectory in black. Beside her on right is the Earth in blue with two images of the Moon in silver above to show the trajectory for the Apollo Lunar Module.

Happy birthday to mathematician & NASA scientist Katherine Johnson (née Coleman; August 26, 1918 – February 24, 2020). 🧪🐡👩🏾‍🔬🎢🧮 #histsci One of the first Black women employed as a NASA scientist (& its predecessor NACA), she was known for her mastery of complex manual calculations of orbital mechanics🧵

Jobs are being pulled out from under career federal employees so that the threat of poverty will entice them into becoming brownshirts.

FEMA, air marshals, museum educators, meteorologists, cybersecurity specialists - all are being asked to uphold the system or be victim to it. #ice #immigration
