Joan Brugge is an eminent scientist that was one of the first pioneers of 3D culture in breast cancer. She had two of her grants canceled last spring.

We used her protocols to develop our own for our research.

This is an important threat about how history is being erased or altered. #history
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

If I used Spotify I would cancel…
Reminder that Spotify has still not gotten rid of their ICE ads. They think they can just stay silent without answering to the public. Let’s show them how wrong they are, let’s hit them where it hurts! These corporations don’t understand anything unless it hurts their bottom line.

I ordered sweaters for my son from eBay and the first one arrived today. The envelope has a yellow smiley face sticker that says, "Thank you for supporting my small business."

My son was visibly delighted, and I said, "That's exactly why I shop on eBay, especially now."

Support small businesses.

For those new to my work: I’m a historian writing about technologies of state power and policing, I track new emerging surveillance technologies, and I coordinate @eff.org’s counter-surveillance advocacy.

In this moment where big tech and authoritarianism have merged, EFF has launched #TakeBackCTRL

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

When I was in DC on the mall earlier this year I had this horrifying vision of him turning the whole area into new skyscrapers with a Trump Tower front and center. Who would stop him?
Now it turns out he's destroying the ENTIRE East Wing, not just the facade. IT IS NOT HIS WHITE HOUSE TO DESTROY. This is an outrageous illustration of his obscene, lawless reign. It must be ended. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

The victims deserve no less. Release the Epstein files.
I’ve posted about the Epstein files every day for many months, I write about the Epstein files every day, and we talk about the Epstein files every week on the pod.

And I won’t stop until the full, unredacted (except for victim/witness info) files have been released.

A 60-year old couple making $85K will see their health costs rise $22,600 next year if Congress doesn’t extend ACA credits. That’s not politics—it’s math.

Congress must act now to protect affordable health care for millions of Americans. I’m fighting to stop this hike. #TrumpHatesOurHealthCare

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed.

THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!

To those in the streets:
Your footsteps are not requests—
they’re demands carved into pavement.
You do not whisper—you roar
for the silenced, the stolen, the ignored.
No kings, no crowns—
only the fury of people done kneeling.
Let the ground remember every step
and let power tremble at your march.

The so-called peace President has doubled the government expenditure for pepperballs and non-lethal rounds to be used against Americans exercising their First Amendment Rights.
