Once abundant in California waters, the sunflower sea star was nearly wiped out by sea star wasting disease. The cause wasn't clear at first, but one culprit has been identified—a bacterium named Vibrio pectenicida. This finding may help scientists understand and control this disease.

Holy shit. Republican Harriet Hagemen got torn apart at a town hall in Wyoming last night. In a state that voted for Trump by 46 points.
She tried defending DOGE and it went as well as you’d imagine.
“Deport Elon, Deport Elon!”
Watch to the end…

It is genuinely your moral duty, if you’re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your lab’s still open.
this is a golden age for walking out of your lab with a USB key in your pocket getting on a plane and going to Luxembourg
Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.
They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

hard to read this any other way than that death of lgbtq people is the explicit goal
The Trump administration has launched yet another calculated attack on LGBTQ+ lives—this time by withholding access to pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP under the longstanding President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
Trump administration takes away life-saving HIV prevention medications from vulnerable LGBTQ+ people worldwide
According to a State Department memo, PrEP can only be dispensed to “pregnant and breastfeeding women” through PEPFAR.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who killed so many children in Samoa they ran out of child-sized coffins, has been confirmed to lead Health and Human Services.
The vote was 52-48. All Dems and Mitch McConnell, whose fault this is, voted no. All other Republicans voted yes. The blood will be on their hands.

I got death threats over my review of a Sonic the Hedgehog game, and yet I kept writing about games.
Gillibrand on WNYC today said one reason they're all falling in line is that they get death threats.
cassidy changing his tune after what he said on the senate floor is what has upgraded my position from "they are being bribed" or "they are worried about primary challenges" to "they are worried about being murdered"
