🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Save every article. Screen shot everything. Print them out.
Record the history going on around you. Save it.

We will need to have history books for the first time that detail how corrupt our country has been to ensure it never happens again.

Too much was left out of the books I read.

I want to spell out the basic reason it’s so dangerous for Elon to have control of the U.S. payments system. It may seem like a technical matter, but the dynamics are simple. 1/x
Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Access to Treasury’s Payments System
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent gave Mr. Musk’s representatives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency a powerful tool to monitor and potentially limit government spending.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

This week the shelter took another cat that was abandoned next door bringing our group from 8 to 5.

Gelato an orange tabby will be in foster for socialization so he has a better chance of finding his forever home. 🥹

Thank you Rebecca Yarros for writing these books and sharing your gift with the world. May the tears I shed for this book find their way to a tissue and not my sleeve 🤭

Journal.
Print off media they can alter or remove.
Save headlines.
Be Creative. Art. Writing. All of it!
Find & create community.

We’re not going back.

In the last week,

▪️1 of the outdoor cats was hit by a car and I had to rush her to the vet to end her suffering.
▪️ 1 of the outdoor cats was accepted by the shelter & will be up for adoption.

It’s been a week. 😕 Happy they don’t have to suffer outside.
