Can Amazon have kindle codes for purchased books like DVDs have digital codes? Although I love supporting authors, this would be fantastic in this economy

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

A federal judge just ordered the Trump administration to restore CDC, FDA and HHS webpages that Trump had ordered to be deleted.

This comes after doctors sued the Trump administration for interfering with their treatment of patients.

Can we start a purple movement for those who just want to be treated as human beings that are equal regardless of their demographics? We can even rebrand the Green Party to this color.

@hankgreen.bsky.social how should I advocate for my community when America is burning both literally and figuratively? The timing doesn’t feel appropriate to advocate for something else not notably talked about.

Donald Trump will be indoors for the inauguration with his billionaire pals. His core supporters will be left outside in the cold.

Message from the Director General, Dr Tedros ⬇️

Peace is the best medicine!

The #Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal is welcome and encouraging. Too many lives have been lost and too many families have suffered. We hope all parties will respect the deal and work towards lasting peace.🧵
