I don't post a whole lot, but I do gotta say I love being around here and seeing all of the amazing things people are working on and the lives we as scientists live. I hope to have some meaningful contributions myself soon!
I was skeptical at first, but Bluesky really is a fantastic platform for scientists who want to engage in broader public conversations.
Thank you @bsky.app and @jay.bsky.team for this amazing resource!

Democratic Senators Refuse Vote To Remove Anti-Trans Amendment From Military Budget
The move follows passage of the NDAA in the House of Representatives, which will be the first national anti-trans law in recent years.

Just me, waiting to see if I get any grad school interview opportunities.
I know it takes time, but man it's hard to wait.

Being trans I hate this idea of criticising Rowling being a witch hunt.
The witch hunts were a Puritan movement to kill "dangerous" men and women as a grab for power over people who didn't abide by a strict value system. Sound familiar?
You're not a witch, Joan. You're trying to burn witches. 🏳️⚧️

Great starter pack! Thanks for sharing.
If I was being brutally honest though, I would tell you that I still cannot read anything about #gdTcells without thinking that someone is talking about the "god damn T cells" in their study😄.

Reminder that being trans is beautiful. It can be spooky for us out here, but I'm not going anywhere. All of us from 🏳️⚧️ are a bunch of cuties deserving of love, respect, and dignity. Even myself, as much as my own self consciousness wants to tell me otherwise.
So here's some from me to you! 🥰
