What jersey am I rocking for the #SeaKraken vs. #GoJetsGo showdown? 🤔 Haven’t worn this one this season, but no doubt—it’s WC Tanev! 🔥

After being traded at the deadline, Turbo makes his return to Seattle tonight. Let’s gooo! 🚀🏒

🚨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.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion
The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.
