Things I care about: not being hit by a car, excellent views, fancy produce, grant/research administration.
Morning commute sky was fluffy clouding it up

LOS ANGELES: Spotify is doubling down on its decision to help recruit for ICE, so we're turning up the volume on our campaign to Cancel Spotify until they stop running ICE ads.

Join the protest at Spotify HQ in the LA Arts District today and tomorrow at 12p PT: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Aurora just north of Urbana, IL.
My phone enhanced the colors a bit, but they were very visible to the naked eye.

when new yorkers all experience something on social media it's like a rat that got ahold of a brazil nut. when upper midwesterners all experience something on social media it's a breathtaking dance of radiant light and color across the entire night sky

Hmm, this is significantly stronger than forecast, indeed.

This is Northern California as well. #aurora

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Correction: it sank at 7:15 eastern time so if you're going to play the song on TouchTunes do it at 6:15 today in the central time zone.
My suggestion for everyone with the TouchTunes app is play this around 7:15 tonight. You don't even have to be at the bar. If you're just sitting at home play it at the nearest place to you.

The most relevant historical analogy is Senate Dems giving up their filibuster of Alito and other Bush nominees in exchange for a vague and unenforceable promise that Republicans wouldn't abuse the filibuster, a promise that needless to say they never even pretended to honor when they lost in 2026
This is key. The vote the Dems secured here is a fake nominal vote. Everyone knows this.
Markey & Pritzker weigh in…

I see James Watson has died.

What did Watson discover?

Rosalind Franklin's lab notes.

Only we spell it 'S-T-E-A-L' these days.

This is the reality for many grantees at Cornell and elsewhere with frozen grants: after a certain amount of time the loss (in money, research time, or personnel) is unrecoverable.

Paying $60 million doesn't get that all back.
Both stop work orders on my two grants have now been released. Unfortunately, the agency for one grant reallocated the funds, so likely those won't come back.

This has gone on for seven months now, and there was no clear point to any of it. I am grateful to colleagues for stepping in to help out.
