Folks in the US: fight harder than you have ever fought for science - and then some. 🔭☄️
Anything less than that will be the beginning of the end of science in America.

The UK supreme court just single-handedly overturned most trans rights in the UK today.
Very disturbingly, the ruling also opens a clear pathway for TERFs to completely push trans people out of public life.
This one ruling pushes trans rights in the UK back at least 25 years. It's horrible

You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment.

We are alarmed by the Administration’s actions to freeze science funding and eliminate DEI efforts and climate change initiatives, which go against AGU’s mission and harms our members. We must unite to address these changes, beginning by hearing from you.

Presented the studies that me and my PhD student Harry Lewis have been doing assessing the specific plasma physical processes responsible for dissipating turbulent energy in collisionless plasmas yesterday at #AGU24!
Lots of fantastic discussions with everyone afterward!
