Tonight I secretly placed ~12 flyers about the NIH's critical, life-saving work (now threatened by Trump) all over my local grocery store. A fun way to spice up my shopping. You can too: www.standupforscience.net/microflyering @standupforscience.bsky.social @cdelawalla.bsky.social

In Texas statewide races, Republicans get about 55% of the vote. But the state legislature is considering gerrymandering our US house districts to a wild extreme, gobbling up 78% of our U.S. house seats (30 out of 38). It's grossly unfair!
A round button reads "One Person One Vote." In the center is a number 1 with superimposed with a check mark.

Just a friendly reminder: NAZIs and fascists are bound to lose. 80 years ago today, Germany surrendered to Allied Forces.

Senator John Cornyn didn't show up for the town hall today in Austin. His constituents had some hard questions for him about his support for Trump shafting Ukraine, cutting services for veterans and basic healthcare and education for Texans, all to fund a big tax giveaway to the ultra wealthy. Weak.
A screen at the front of an auditorium reads "In the last 48 hours. Where is Cornyn?" And it shows social media posts of him reading a book by Donald Trump and eating in a diner with three other people.

Five years after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, just a friendly reminder that the vaccines that saved 14.4 million lives globally in their first year were enabled by basic academic research on mRNA and coronavirus spike proteins. Thanks, government-funded science!
