Please help if you can. They need big donations. I don't know who to reach out to to get them. My own parents gave €3k two weeks ago, at the time more than enough to cover evacuation costs, but costs had tripled by the time the money arrived. It wasn't enough. I have nothing to give. Please.

Pretty Drosophila melanogaster for a White guy.
If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:
Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”

Some tarantulas keep frogs as 'pets'.
The frogs eat ants & other small bugs that might attack the eggs or young spiderlings of the tarantula & the tarantula provides shelter in their burrows.
What's more: the tarantula will attack predators that might threaten the frog.

When Clive Barker was working on the MUMMY remake for Universal in the early '90s, he had a trans character in the script, and when the studio vetoed it, he basically said "I really can't stress how much I don't need to fucking make THE MUMMY" and left.

A yoke is not a hobble
that keeps a beast from wandering
nor a bridle for a master to steer with.
A yoke drags a plow.
Would you have me walk unfettered
or plant behind me?

I need news anchors to stop asking experts, "Can Trump do that??"
HE IS DOING IT. RIGHT NOW.
So some lawyer or piece of paper says he's not allowed. So what. SCOTUS says he can't even be tried, and he'll pardon any others.
He's forging on ahead anyway, so start asking: "What could stop him?"

Trump’s latest executive order (that was no doubt written by psychopath RFK Jr.) goes after antidepressants.

My salary is paid by direct costs. The lab's rent in a non-Pitt building, its utilities, financial administration, and safety oversight are paid for by indirect costs. I can't work without indirect cost allocation. That appears to be the goal.

6. The policy does not just affect funding going forward. All existing NIH grants will have their indirect rates cut to 15% as of today, the date of issuance.
For a large university, this creates a sudden and catastrophic shortfall of hundreds of millions of dollars against already budgeted funds.
