You’ve seen the halftime show … now read my friend Petra’s new book from @dukepress.bsky.social about how Bad Bunny became the global voice of Puerto Rican resistance! 👏🏽👏🏽

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

The only thing more powerful than hate is love!

That was SPECTACULAR.

You don’t praise the people who were unsuccessful in their attempts to fully dismantle a scientific infrastructure it took 80 years to build. You praise the people who successfully resisted some of the dismantling

A statement from the "Science and Technology Action Committee" thanking President Trump for signing the appropriations bill that includes funding for the NIH.

I was shocked to see this statement from a group of representatives from the American scientific establishment...

I started @standupforscience.bsky.social because I believe in science and democracy and I’ve continued SUFS because I believe science can AND SHOULD be better.

Not in an “improve our systems” kind of way—in a “REIMAGINE a new system that works for everyone” kind of way. And we are going to do it.

STAC Statement Thanking President Donald Trump for Signing the Senate Amendment to H.R. 7148, the Consolidated Appropriations Act

Except from Peter Drucker’s autobiography about scientists asking the new Nazi commissar for funding, after they expelled every Jewish faculty member.

MERE HOURS after the President of the United States posted an AI video of the Obama’s as monkeys, the Science Tech Action Committee (led by @aaas.org and @researchamerica.bsky.social) posted a THANK YOU to TRUMP for SIGNING THE BUDGET.

Spoke with a PI whose postdoc is trapped abroad because of social media vetting. It appears the postdoc missed disclosing one account and it's unclear if they can come back… ever.

This is the country we live in now.

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit.

It's all white supremacy and greed.

I am okay. Thank you for all the well wishes. We are in scary times. Please stay safe and do not let these people silence you. Onwards.

California joins WHO public health network following US exit, marking a first for any state California joined WHO's Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network, countering federal withdrawal from the organization.

Afghanistan: Four years on, 2.2 million girls still banned from Statement by Audrey Azoulay, Director-General of UNESCO

As we enter World Education Day (Jan 24), think of the 2.2 million Afghani girls still banned from school beyond the primary level. Be their voices.

At a time when ICE is rounding up 5-year-olds, terrorizing communities and killing American citizens, the last thing we should be doing is increasing its funding.

I will vote NO on the upcoming spending bill to fund Trump's domestic army.

We can actually predict polar vortex events now by monitoring Ted Cruz flight patterns
