I stayed through a lot of events on this site that upset me. But seeing multiple antisemitic trending topics today has convinced me to leave. I'll be at jacobifeldman on Spoutible and jacob.i.feldman on Threads and hopefully Science Twitter finds a less hateful home.
TL/DR: 1) Call, write, or fax your members of congress, 2) Contact the advocacy arms of professional organizations you belong to, 3) Share widely, and hopefully inspire action in others.
I'm briefly coming out of Twitter hiatus to post the most important thing I've ever written: a call to action for scientists (and our friends and family) to help preserve funding for scientific research https://t.co/4ja5RJWACf
I'm thrilled that @ASHAWeb shared this information and is concerned about these issues!!
If you would like to request that their political action committee stops donating to anti-LGBTQIA2S+ political campaigns, sign the petition here

I’m a 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ researcher looking for people of many genders & neurotypes to tell me stories for a language analysis project. Help me out this Pride month by retweeting our call for participants? 👇
Join us tomorrow for our #PittHSRseminar with Jacob Feldman, who will present on multisensory perceptual training in #autism.

Thank you to @VandyPostdoc and @VUGradSchool for hosting this event and selecting me for this honor. And congratulations to my fellow awardees, who were all so incredibly accomplished! It was an honor to share the podium with you! https://t.co/m4AIlcaQJD
Our 2023 Postdoctoral Awards was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who joined us as we celebrated the achievements of our postdoctoral community, and congratulations to all of our winners!
In case you hadn't seen the tweets from @J_Markfeld and @VandyPostdoc, I have some news from an eventful last week: J won the Kangaroo Award for his Pre-K class and I won the Postdoctoral Mentor of the Year award (or, as my mom called it, Mensch of the Year).
Thank you to Grace and Jennifer for nominating me for this award. I'm so proud of everything that my mentees have accomplished, and I'm glad that I got to play a role in their success. You can't be a good mentor without good mentees, and I've been blessed with some amazing ones!
@RepMarkGreen When I called your office the day after the Covenant School shooting, your office said that you didn’t want to politicize the tragedy. Apparently when 5 die in your district nothing can be done, but when it’s in a border area you have policy solutions. STOP TWEETING NONSENSE!!
@RepMarkGreen You and your GOP colleagues in the house did this. Now pass a clean debt ceiling bill, stop tweeting about fringe conspiracy theories, and do something about the 6 individuals killed in your district one month ago!!
Sneak peak of the awesome (meta-)science I’m presenting at @ACTScience#TS23xInnovate this afternoon! (Not pictured: my @EdgeforScholars water bottle brought for cool points).
