Honoring Elizabeth Peratrovich, Tlingit civil rights activist, today and her powerful words: "Asking you to give me equal rights implies that they are yours to give. Instead, I must demand that you stop trying to deny me the rights all people deserve."

Today's San Jose Mercury News has my Letter to the Editor about the disastrous proposed cuts to NIH. The ramifications are hard to summarize in <150 words, but here's my attempt.

כל מילה ומילה של ברוכי המלך
ברוכי קרא על הקמפיין הנבזי של מכונת הרעל של נתניהו נגד עינב צנגאוקר, האמא הלביאה שנלחמת על חיי בנה.
חלק מהאשמות הדוחות שלהם: היא מנוצלת ולא פועלת על דעת עצמה; היא לא ״נאמנה״ למוצאה האתני והגיאוגרפי (אישה מזרחית מאופקים). יש יותר גזעני וסטריאוטיפי מזה?

אין להם תחתית. רוע טהור.

Column: Trump's assault on science will make Americans dumber and sicker
Donald Trump has always posed as someone smarter than scientists. Does that explain why so much of his dismantling of the federal government is aimed at scientific agencies?

I'm a princess Diana risen from the dead, if they didn't acknowledge him because they didn't want to risk his life. Cough, cough, hint, hint, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more, Israeli life is not commercially profitable.

The infamous memo from the Trump Administration reads like a ransom note. It openly acknowledges that it is dropping the charges against Mayor Adams in order to use him to carry out its immigration policy.

Great 🧵 from the Prof.
Most academics I know don't make much money; I know a few who have job security, a solid income, and maintain an upper-middle-class position.

But if you want to compare who's overpaid, look at post-career politicians like Sununu's speaking fees.
Interesting to see former #NHPoli governor Chris Sununu make this claim given that at $146K he made more than most professors in New Hampshire and also left politics because he wanted to make more money, which he is doing by shitting on civil servants on CNN

"We can disagree with each other and still be friends" does not apply if you're antisemitic or transphobic. Unfortunately, too many people on the left--people that I once thought were friends and allies--have shown themselves over the last year to be antisemitic and cut me out of their lives.

It happened on Sunday when the penny finally dropped. How I was fooled and lied to. How everything is just a facade, and his words are his work, but they aren't from the heart. I swam happily, and somewhere somehow I felt disoriented, dizzy and that I'm about to drown. I lost my control on my left
