I have a hard and fast rule about not sharing substack links, but if you want to understand the strategy behind what Justice Jackson did in issuing a administrative stay with a 48 hour deadline re SNAP, do a little searching.
Don’t just be like “I can’t believe she did that.”
She had a reason.

The long-running ideological war on libraries, education, and government workers is not separate from AI boosterism. It is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:

If you are serving on NIH study sections that have been cancelled, PLEASE continue to work on your reviews. NIH will do everything their power to ensure the meetings happen eventually, and the more prepared you are when those meetings are rescheduled, the better.
Welp. Thanks to the Republican gov shutdown I have a bunch of hours back in my week due to a NIH study section not meeting.
These poor applicants. They will be waiting week by week for government to reopen and to find out what will happen to their grant application.

Across the country, if you're having any trouble getting your COVID vaccine, you should be calling your representatives and letting them know that RFKs actions are making Americans less safe. People and pharmacies need better guidance. Things will only change if we speak up.

Gentle reminder that guardasil for HPV is approved for use starting at 9, though the first dose is usually given at 11 in the US. I just got my 9 yo his first dose
Wondering what vaccines to get this fall or whether they will even be available?
Most will be, but maybe for the last time. Make sure your family is up to date while you still can.
