I'm a gay aquatic toxicologist studying how pharmaceuticals in wastewater might affect fish behavior/development, but one of the best parts of my work is meeting others in the community! Check out #LGBTscience for more fantastic LGBTQ+ scientists! https://t.co/uEc87maS1i

I would love it then if we could take the time this week to boost the visibility of some LGBT+ academics using the hashtag #LGBTscience [IMPORTANT: make sure they're ok with it before boosting! Double check first if you're not sure someone is out on twitter] 🏳️‍🌈

The IOC denied a request from the mayor of Hiroshima to pause the games for a moment of silence at 8:15 am today. We can never stop talking about Hiroshima/Nagasaki .When we do, we increase the likelihood that it will happen again, and fail all those that were killed (2)

Just a reminder that Simone Biles faced unconscionable abuse at the hands of a doctor that US Gymnastics did NOTHING about until all those young women organized together to protect themselves. She owes the US and US Gymnastics in particular, nothing. Not one thing.

Remember when the police wanted to be apart of Pride last month🧐

Thread. Have you ever heard of "civil asset forfeiture"? You're never going to think about the police the same way again. (1)

Hi. I've been worried about you overheating so here I am with bossy bossy tips.

Blackout your windows. All of them. If you got aluminum foil put it shiny side out and then something like cardboard behind that and then a blanket or towels over that. You want it DARK in your place

@eyeballMir @FisheriesPod Ah unfortunately I don't. I can definitely ask around!

@GonzoScientist1 Or a poorly maintained groundskeepers house in a commune next to a major trump donor's compound?

Hey I did a thing! This paper has come such a long way. I first dabbled in eyes back in 2017 as a grad student, after destroying and shooting off several eyes, I finally was able to peel them so I could submit a sample. Thread

@brandynlucca I love you and your mod-ed 3D printer ❤️❤️❤️

I co-authored a magazine article that was student-led that was just released entitled "Settler colonialism and pandemics: #NativeAmericans misrepresented in health data pay a heavy #COVID19 price"

One of my friends is a Black woman physician being doxxed by Tiffany Haddish on Clubhouse. What we can't handle - and what is not AT ALL funny - is abuse of people already exhausted by the pandemic and racism having the added burden of coordinated attacks by celebrities.

DC is more than Capitol Hill and the White House. It’s a place where people live. It’s Piscataway land, it’s Chocolate City (forever), home of go-go and mambo sauce, Salvadoran food and Little Ethiopia. It’s DC residents and workers who are bearing the burden of this moment.

.@prisonculture frames MLK as a revolutionary, with a sharp critique of white supremacy, imperialism, and capitalism, against sanitized presentations that frame him only as a dreamer. This is why he was murdered, and we cannot erase that history.
