I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Couldn’t agree more. This is how the Tea Party transformed the Republican Party back in 2009: they kept confronting reps and Senators all across the country until it snowballed into a major media issue.

Scientists all across the country: do this! Students, fellows, PIs, you all can do this.🧪

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
This isn’t some rant saying “Germany has learned nothing from its past” - the reality is more subtle than that. Middle-class Germans live and travel with an incredible amount of ease and comfort, and they just got…sleepy. Many of them dismissed the far-right’s rage as just another set of complaints.
Just filed an article about the upcoming German elections (out on Sunday) and what strikes me is how timid much of the institutional pushback against the far-right has been. Some people have distinguished themselves but for the most part it’s just been really complacent - really disappointing.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

🚨Important paper alert (a bit late, but see below)
Guo et al show that while place cells may not initially form a manifold reflecting the environment's topology, the topology is learned across days, during sleep.

Latent learning drives sleep-dependent plasticity in distinct CA1 subpopulations
Guo et al. find that when mice repeatedly explore a novel environment, a distinct subset of neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus, which initially exhibits weak spatial selectivity, gradually d...

www.earth.com/news/collaps... The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is like a massive ocean conveyor belt moving warm & cold Atlantic Ocean water from the Gulf of Mexico, along the US east coast & across to Europe. Unfortunately, it’s slowing down and on the verge of total collapse.
Collapse of Earth's main ocean water circulation system is already happening
AMOC is like a massive ocean circulation conveyor belt that moves warm and cold water around the Atlantic. It's failing, and that's very bad.

Absolutely thrilled that @pjvogt.bsky.social did a whole episode about one of my favorite books with my old professor.

A history of the problems with Athenian democracy doesn’t sound like a page-turner but it’s absurdly relevant to current problems.
