A riddle for Prof. Allyson Friedman: what two things do these neurobiologists have in common: Farah Lubin, Antentor Hinton, and Andre Fenton? They’re Black and they each have an h-index higher than yours. abcnews.com/amp/US/hunte...

Hope, realized.

For any of this to work we need broad, effective protection from emotional manipulation. Predators are very good at pulling levers to escape the bounds of a democracy.

Spotted Anthony Mackey at a cigar bar in Atlanta. Like a total dork I offered to buy him a drink. He said no thanks because he was already blitzed but bought me and everyone else a round. He started talking to me about purchasing homes in opportunity zones. He’s cool people!

Had a BBQ lunch with Cornel West in Phoenix, AZ.

Kick them off the bed, and throw them at the walls while screaming in rage at all the crap I had to deal with that day. Then in the morning neatly place them back so that I can pretend to not be a psycho. lol

Trumpism aside, the chemical-resistance approach for genetic engineering of crop plants is just a stupid idea in so many ways. I’ve thought this for 25 years (since grad school).

“I am somebody!” felt like a corny catchphrase when I was young and relatively safe, but now … as an adult with the boots of gatekeepers on my neck as I out-think and over-qualify many of them, learning that meritocracy is mostly a notion, this phrase is a necessity for sanity.

Making elections more secure isn’t the point. Placing elections under federal control is the point. If this gets passed it opens the door to federally dispatched ICE agents showing up at polling places to collect “disputed” ballots.

MAHA’s whole schtick is intellectual laziness.

That MAHA Super Bowl ad was so damn dumb.

I am so jealous 😫

Curling is so odd (to me), and earnest at the same time. I’m kind of fascinated by it.

So amped by the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show I started singing “Toro Mata” (the little bit I know) by Celia Cruz. A Peruvian song, yes, but if you know Spanish language anti-colonial music, you know. #superbowl

No easing into it, either, just straight out the gate with a sugar plantation scene. Zero time to speculate about whether he might do something political.

That is a VERY important point. White supremacy is tribal narcissism. Narcissists can’t operate without a target/ supply. Predation and dominance is a core feature. When they say “only whites” they don’t mean “leave us alone” they mean “only whites having power over you.”

“More marriages, more babies … but not YOU people!” … some MAGA sociopath somewhere.

You beat me to it! Lol

I actually recognized the sample from El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico in the Super Bowl half time show and I am so proud of myself! Flashback to the time I first learned to salsa dance from students from Universidad de Puerto Rico Mayaguez at a summer REU at MIT back in 1998. #superbowl

And when he said “God bless America” he meant the whole damn continent. ❤️

I saw this in college (FAMU) and it changed my life ❤️

Often times I wonder if the only way out of this and to save our democracy is a military arrest of the POTUS.

Your black friend or colleague who has nothing to say about Trump’s racist shenanigans today might be numb from quietly dealing with their own adjacent racist(s) who you may have defended by calling them a “nice person.” I don’t want you to feel ashamed, just aware.

Thank you. It is important to honor hidden figures. We should also dismantle a system that relegates genius to servile positions, denying them of the leadership positions they are fully qualified for.

It’s a reminder of his failed conquest, and it bears the name of a president that people admire more than him.

I don’t ever want to hear “just get over slavery” ever again.

That’s what we call a street gang. ICE is a tax payer-funded street gang.
