Right before what's expected to be the worst US flu season to date. Plus Covid. And RSV. And...
UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.
An important vote in this series: Tammy Baldwin’s proposal to extend ACA expiring funds for 1 year. It’s structured as a motion to table (i.e. scrap it from the amendment tree). But it’ll show the appetite (or lack thereof) in the Senate to address this issue.

🧪🔬🧬🎓So #JamesWatson is dead. Should we honor him for his undeniable essential contributions to modern biology?
No because he was an antisemite, a racist, an eugenecist, a sexist who tried to steal the work of #RosalindFranklin without crediting her. A terrible scientist and human being.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

I see people say things like "will *they* let us have x, y, z" as it relates to the fascists and their enablers and I am here to say THEY WON'T *LET* YOU HAVE ANYTHING AT ALL. You have to band with others to TAKE what you want. That's really it.

Before I write this, I want to note that I and my immediate loved ones are okay.
That said:
Tell the people you care about that you love them. Especially if you haven’t in a while.
You never know when you might no longer have the chance.

Now that I've mentioned being unemployed, let me tell you about the _new_ ludicrousness that is the MA Department of Unemployment Assistance process.
I have it on good authority that MA is _better_ about this than most states, and so far, it's still a clown show.
A thread. 🧵

Now that it's official, I feel comfortable mentioning I (along w/others) have been laid off of my job of 12.5 years.
End of an era, one where I deeply enjoyed my work and the unique features of my role.
I'll start looking on Monday. If anyone knows of part-time remote work, please reach out! 💝

Nobody ever wants to talk about or admit this but it happened.
Taking in refugees isn't just a nice thing we do — we have a legal obligation. The 1951 Refugee Convention came about specifically because countries like the US refused entry to Jews who were trying to escape Germany, because the world didn't ever want that to happen again.

Unpopular Opinion: Pandemics lead to an upswing in eugenics in particular and fascism in general, both historically (see: 1918 flu epidemic) and now.
As soon as you start the slide into 'my comfort and enjoyment is more important than your access and safety', you are complicit in it.
