My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.
Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.
It’s time to fight back.

I am really excited about this new article series in Systematic Botany. It's a great opportunity to draw attention to plant biodiversity and natural history, plus rally communities around clades that need more work or have particular ecological / economic significance.

I've said it many times, but I think one of the most important lessons to learn from ancient art objects is that our ancestors were just as talented as we are, had some of the same questions about the world around them.
They were clever, creative, passionate, interested. I love that.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired!
New ride coming soon.

My talking points in recent interviews, please use as you see fit:
1.Every $1 in NIH funding returns ~$2.50 to the economy.
2.Every $1B in cuts from NIH extramural = 7500 lost employees, just in science.
3.These don't include priceless improvements in health.

From the man who backed out of a fight with Mark Zuckerberg and an appearance on the Daily Show: "I literally challenged Putin to one on one physical combat". This is "my dad works for Nintendo" level stuff.

The unbridled joy of dogs catching treats
German photographer Christian Vieler has been snapping these amusing shots since 2013, when he bought a portable flash that allowed him to work with shutter speeds as fast as 1/8000th of a second.

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.
