"There is great strength if these major institutions stand together, and great risk to the enterprise if they choose to remain silent."

Man Irish people are so sick
Severed head of King George V statue may have resurfaced at Irish rappers gig!

A joyous reminder of
Nelson’s head which was decapitated from his statue in Dublin 1966 and cropped up onstage at a Dubliners gig. Might have been the Wolfe Tones too.

One canonical fact about me is that I cry to the movie Coco at least once a week. It always pops up on my TikTok for you page and I have to sit there with tears in my eyes. Yes I use TikTok.

Even though, as scientists, things are really scary in our corner, we have to keep advocating for other groups and people who are losing their identities and are being forcibly displaced.

This attack on science is just one part of a giant list of things that is happening. Trans and non-binary people have been disenfranchised, immigrants are being deported in horrible conditions, and genocide is still occurring in Gaza/the West Bank and is being ENCOURAGED by the administration.

Labmate just said “multiplexing” instead of multitasking and I was like I need to put this on bluesky right now

It’s always a pleasure to attend the @bcmhouston.bsky.social neuroscience retreat. I’m so proud of my cohort for the progress we’ve made so far and looking forward to all the great science we’ll get to share next year.

Remind yourself that everytime they say they’re trying to get rid of “cultural Marxism” in our institutions it’s not even a nazi dog whistle it’s straight up almost the same phrase that the Nazi party used

They’re not even taking a page out of the fascist workbook anymore they’re taking the whole thing and using it to run this government
