This is everything that is wrong with this country (plus capitalism at all costs). When the fuck did we get to a place where being an anti-racist is “too political”. The fact that was we have argue about this is the reason why we’ve gotten here
Not only will researchers doing important work related to social inequity be affected by this at NSF (and other agencies), so will many others who don't. Tell me again (some of) my colleagues that universities shouldn't have anti-racist and social justice missions. www.chronicle.com/article/shou...

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

One of America's most famous cities is on fire and the richest man in the country hasn't paid a penny to assist people whose lives have been destroyed by the fires.

He has, however, been busy spewing disinformation and encouraging people to loot. Because worthless trolls are like that.

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.

Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

It’s only been two weeks and I feel like I am already desensitized. Small acts of kindness, re-aligning my goals for the next year, and focusing on my family are now the priorities.

The real health emergency is what he said at the end, but this party has kept people so poor, and wait until they see how much poor they can get, that they cannot afford real food or real health care. There’s the punchline….
TAPPER: The medical community has been clear that what RFK Jr says about vaccines is false. They don't cause autism. Does that bother you at all?

Also, part of the reason we did bought InfoWars is because people on Bluesky told us it would be funny to buy InfoWars. And those people were right. This is the funniest thing that has ever happened.
