Chinatown will soon have its own permanent @bpl.boston.gov library branch for the first time in a generation. And the new branch will bring with it 110 units of affordable housing!

It’s really something to hear the GOP claim that disappearing immigrants is for the sake of public safety.

After all, this is the same party that refuses to regulate guns and insists on cutting funding for violence intervention programs.

International students contributed $44 billion to the US economy in the last academic calendar, and now the administration is pausing all new student visa applications. I have no words.

Fun fact: telling a university to cancel visas because you don’t like what they teach is fascism

Getting a PhD is hard enough, but writing/defending a dissertation on *firearm injury and gun policy* in this climate is a nightmare.
The reason you're having trouble concentrating if you are here in the US is because we're basically being chased around by serial killers and being asked to disregard the fact.

Every time I get a little tired and worn out, I remember that a *man* with a shitty spray tan and a *man* with a brain worm are trying to take away my future in science…and that fixes it for me.

Because *a man* isn’t gonna be the reason I can’t be a scientist, so help me god.

I don’t care if the plane is “available for charter in the offseason.” That entire aircraft is wrapped in the team logo and thereby insinuates their support for what they are being hired to do. Hey MA and Patriots fans- how do we feel about this???
Did the New England Patriots team plane just fly to Guantanamo? 👀

Wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute: The White House just said the quiet part out loud by targeting Amazon for wanting to publish what portion of prices are due to tariffs. Didn’t they tell the American public they don’t pay for tariffs?!? 🤡

Implementation of Schedule F

This is what a lot of us have been worried about.

This allows for many civil service positions to replaced with political appointees. This could include NIH institute directors and even POs.

BUT THERE IS A COMMENT PERIOD...

This isn't about saving money: the program costs just a fraction of the dept's budget.

This isn't about making Americans healthier: over 2k people use the service every day.

This is about scoring cheap political points by taking advantage of some of the most vulnerable members of society.
The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.
HHS plans to cut the national suicide hotline’s program for LGBTQ youth
In February, the program received an average of 2,100 contacts per day.

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process.

Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.
