must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Shoutout to the Merlin Bird ID, aka my current emotional support app.
I love the Merlin Bird ID app. It’s like real life Pokémon. Here’s what I heard this morning.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

WTF 🤬
Pure fascism: the put down of the freedom of assembly.

Everyone I met who went to a women’s college is always terrifying

We follow the news each wk in my Gender & Science class— undergrads dk abt them or how research $ works! Most in my classes plan to go into STEM fields. It’s so imp we demystify how bureaucracy works & that these events betray the core idea of the class I teach: science is social.
I’ve heard from some very smart professors, politically engaged, who argue that as much as the moment concerns them, there’s no way to incorporate discussion into the focus of their classroom. How about the fact that they may not have a classroom soon? 8/

Moon-Venus conjunction and Earthshine, by photographer Stefano Maraggi. Due to the Earth-Moon distance only a tiny fraction of the sunlight reflected by Earth reaches the lunar nightside, which reflects a tiny fraction back to Earth, appearing dimmer than the portion directly illuminated by the Sun.
