Every year around Thanksgiving, I see tons of grad students post heartbreaking messages on social media about how their loved ones don’t understand or support their decision to study what seems like something pointless or silly.
Perhaps my American Scientist essay can help!

Zia Yusuf just refused 5 times to condemn Nigel Farage's statement last year that "we [NATO and the EU] provoked this war".
2 days ago Reform's former Welsh leader was sent down for taking pro-Russian bribes. Yet they're still happy to go along with Kremlin talking points.

@OFGEN @SkyNews I am sick to death of energy companies saying there is no way of storing renewable energy. Utter BS you can use excess energy to generate hydrogen gas by splitting water - store it in tanks then burn that in gas fired stations to generate electricity. Using the same power stations.

This is big: Michelle Mone is being forced to pay back £122m after supplying poor quality protective gear to our NHS during the pandemic. But she STILL hasn't been kicked out of the House of Lords. Mone has to go. Agree? Sign the petition today:

As Richard Tice says, Reform have identified £300m of savings from councils they run. This remarkable feat has been achieved by plucking that figure out of thin air while increasing council tax by 5%.

The absolute brass neck of the Tories talking about Labour infighting - just review their history. No wonder nothing gets done under the Tories.
Another very pertinent fact that I have not seen mentioned ANYWHERE: In 14 years of Tory rule we had 14 Prisons Ministers - six in a single year, at one point - and a total of 11 Justice Secretaries, including Grayling, Raab, and Truss. In 13 years of Labour it was three: Irvine, Falconer, Straw. 🤔

Reform is a racist party - they have no other purpose. They are fascists. They will run out of enemies to blame like the Tories did but they’ll come for everyone.

Bare faced cheek of Robert Jenrick who in govt as Justice Minister caused the collapse of the justice system and chronic overcrowding of jails - bleating about the current govt mid-releasing prisoners. He should be in jail for his corruption.
