"Las víctimas de las riadas en Valencia han escuchado decir que los servicios públicos los han abandonado, pero la verdad es que esos servicios estaban desarmándose, precarizándose y enmugreciéndose desde la perversa optimización de recursos en el ámbito de lo social."👇
"El amparo" de David Trueba @elpais.com

Dos afirmaciones claves:
- Nada hay más tentador que pensar que nos valemos por nosotros mismos"
- Nuestra indiferencia (ante el deterioro de los servicios públicos) es delictiva.

El amparo
Tras décadas de escuchar que la libertad individual es incompatible con la tutela pública, reaparece la urgencia de que el Estado fortalezca los organismos de protección

Great tips for science visualizations and science communication 😍
Trying something new:
A 🧵 on a topic I find many students struggle with: "why do their 📊 look more professional than my 📊?"

It's *lots* of tiny decisions that aren't the defaults in many libraries, so let's break down 1 simple graph by @jburnmurdoch.bsky.social

I've started a Starter Pack for #citizenscience on Bluesky! go.bsky.app/2mayYEU

Is there a way to convert a 'starter pack' into a feed? I might be interested in a topic but maybe not want to follow all the accounts directly. Illuminate us, please 😉 @jay.bsky.team

"Extreme competition sometimes elicits negative behaviors and traits. In academia this may be expressed, for example, as exploitative and selfish traits over collegiality and generosity in professional and academic relationships; quantity and superficiality over depth and quality... "
"Success [...] and self-respect involve multiple [...] dimensions that continuously develop and consolidate throughout our entire lives; we should never gage ourselves on the basis of unidimensional and simplistic comparisons to others."
