No words to describe how difficult yesterday was at NSF. 10% of our employees gone. World-leading experts across science, technology, and education. Skilled workers dedicated to using their talents for public service. It is a devastating loss for those who remain and for the American people.

How much harm is done when states lose federal funding?
State revenue — tanked 📉
Education, small business, community support, scientific research, healthcare.
It’s your jobs, your security. It’s feeding children.
“I don’t do politics.”
Oh baby, you do.

I don’t know what the future of the U.S. is, let alone #TikTok, but I made a farewell TT video last week, so now it’s a HELLO BlueSky video!
I made my first viral TikTok in 2019 and hundreds of videos later I am devastated about the likely loss of the platform, but am excited to be here!

Do you use data in the U.S.? A few weeks ago, we dropped "Innovating the Data Ecosystem: An Update of the Federal Big Data Research and Development Strategic Plan” !
Grateful for the team who put this together and for the opportunity to come on as a writer 🙏
