I'll say this as many times as it needs to be said.

Save our Freaks.
Don't mine the Deep.

(also maybe unfollow NOAA. They're a disinformation account at this point. Fuck.)

I'm not concerned about the undocumented immigrant with some parking and speeding tickets. I'm concerned about the American citizen with 34 felony convictions who is driving America right into a fucking ditch.

The primary donor to #openscience seems very supportive of massive cuts to scientific funding that jeopardize research. I don’t think it’s edgy at this point to say that reform is being weaponized and the community needs to stand up against it.

Please keep calling your senators!!!!
If I were a Democrat, and I saw Trump do a purge of high-level generals who were women and people of color and wouldn't be "yes men," I wouldn't vote to advance JD Vance's college friend for Secretary of the Army.

And yet....16 Democrats just did so

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library
