For the 2nd year in a row a family of green herons has had babies in our front tree. It’s been so cool watching the little ones grow up! We probably have less than a week before they leave. They are hard to see but all come out to watch the sun set every night. They climb high up to see. So amazing!

NIH funding under the new bill (just passed): "Funding for brain research will be consolidated into one institute with a budget of 2.445B. Currently, brain research is funded by several institutes and adds up to over 5B. So it looks like brain research is getting slashed by over 50%."

yes? 🧠📈 🧪

I know things aren’t easy right now but the SNL concert from Friday night is so good it’s almost overwhelming. So much amazing music and memories! Highly recommend!

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen.

Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !”

Here’s my Beatles moment with Shonen Knife:
February 4, 2025 at 12:38 PM
One of the best! From Wikipedia:

Cobain praised Shonen Knife's performances during the tour, stating, "When I finally got to see them live, I was transformed into a hysterical nine-year-old girl at a Beatles concert."

So great!
To @josie.zone point about better 90’s bands , here is Shonen Knife covering the Carpenters with ‘On Top of the World’

Just a reminder that 69% of white women could not bring themselves to vote for the brown woman. And here we are. All women get covered in brown paper. The irony.
Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Talk to your department chairs and research offices! 🧪
Per an NIH source:

“Discussions with colleagues have suggested that if the universities all come together and raise hell about the delays to funding caused by not holding meetings, that might move the needle. From every state. There are well-funded universities in red states that will be impacted.”

Somehow my post about the Picasso exhibit is getting flagged as sexually suggestive… I’m working on an appeal.

Just got back from the opening of “Picasso and Paper” at the Cleveland Museum of Art. It showcases early work from when he was 9 to the end of his life. So many pieces that I had never seen! Highly recommend going if you have time in Cleveland!
