🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

‘Glory hole’ probably has its etymological roots in the Scots word ‘glaur’ which means “to dirty, to defile” but also from the glass blowing studio use where ‘glory’ refers to the halo of light of the furnace opening—sacred and profane rolled into one.
