One thing that's abundantly clear: passing the SAFE Research Act would permanently end the United States' ability to be competitive in any area of advanced technology. Just straight up suicidal policy-making.
This has gotten surprisingly little attention — it's not even on the front page of @science.org right now — but it's really hard to describe what the SAFE Research Act would do to US science and scientists without sounding insane

I hope the next thing the universe throws at me is a sexy wizard knocking on my door in the middle of the night for a call to adventure, but the adventure is just living in a magical lakeside cottage where I have unlimited time and resources to write my weird stories

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.

Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.

If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.
Please read our statement, share it with your networks, and support us if you can. www.python.org/sponsors/app... psfmember.org/civicrm/cont...

Physicists have invented a Kansas City that’s in neither Kansas nor Missouri but instead exists in some kind of plasma intermediary state but the FDA won’t approve it because it doesn’t have barbecue yet

Had to sit right across from a tv in the hospital and WOW. I didn't grow up with tv, and have kept up the tradition. The daytime television/news really feels like a symbolic stand in for entertainment and news you would see in the background of a show that wasn't trying that hard.

It feels like every time I reread some modern science fiction I pick up on some transphobic nonsense that's worse than just omission. That and stuff that reads more as the authors weird opinion on genes rather than an in universe cultural artifact.

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc
30 people disappeared in this shaded area today.

Remember how the Death Star had that one hidden weakness?

Well, an important kill switch in this massive surveillance network is: individual control over a bunch of the nodes. People hold the power to tear the network down.
