i take every chance i get to remind everyone that the people running this country are not only evil but, perhaps even more importantly, incredibly fucking stupid

RFK Jr. just fired the entire U.S. vaccine committee.

He says they were corrupt.
But here’s what he didn’t tell you… 🧾💰

Happy to share our recent publication in Nature Ecology & Evolution, with @rosvall_lab, @reject_resubmit, and many more! https://t.co/MTFtwYkRUZ

There is a new platform, Sci-Net (https://t.co/SPy41cSJP5) where researchers can help each other by providing paywalled papers. The platform builds upon Sci-Hub meme token $scihub to reward active members.

Proud to have contributed to @JiaxuanQi's masterpiece out @Nature! She shows dopamine transients track the quality of song during juvenile song learning and that dopamine release is driven not just by VTA firing, but by a local cholinergic mechanism! https://t.co/D16ebPe3vP

The primary reason universities aren't fighting for their research enterprises is that they are feckless cowards. But the OTHER reason is that research, like education, is a money-losing front for their real business: building expansive real estate empires.

Fascism is the merger of state and corporations.

I'm no mathematician, but I do know this: 99% is a hell of a lot bigger than 1%.

Together, the American people can defeat Trump's advances toward authoritarianism and create an economy that works for all of us, not just the billionaire class.

[matt bernstein @mattxiv]

this is actually fucking jaw-dropping. while trump cuts programs you need to live, he’s turning the white house into a car dealership to advertise his unelected shadow president’s failing company. dystopian levels of corruption

lotta “I stand up for science when someone comes for my grants, but won’t stand up for my students and colleagues when my university scapegoats them and tries to quash their right to political speech and their academic freedom” going around

We’re told that rural America doesn’t like progressive ideas.

Not what I saw today at our great rally in Altoona, WI — population 9,200.

People here, and across the country, understand that health care is a human right, and our economy must work for all, not just the few.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Great rally in Kenosha.

4,000 people came out to say:

NO tax breaks for billionaires.

NO cuts to Medicaid.

NO oligarchy.

NO authoritarianism.

NO MORE billionaires buying elections.

We wrote a recipe book for academics who want to build small antiracist communities. While we don't have all the answers, we think this is incredibly important for the current moment.

[Majo Navarrete Mendez @majonavarrete4]

A letter that my colleagues and I wrote regarding the installation of a U.S. military base in the Galápagos Islands has been published in @ScienceMagazine. This decision is unconstitutional, as it violates multiple articles of the Ecuadorian Constitution, which recognizes nature as a subject of rights and guarantees its right to exist, maintain its vital cycles, and preserve its structure, functions, and evolutionary processes. The establishment of a military base not only undermines the Constitution and Ecuador’s sovereignty but also sets a dangerous precedent for violating international treaties designed to protect globally significant ecosystems.
Here is the link to the article, DMme if you'd like the pdf

A large portion of grants awarded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health cannot be funded for the foreseeable future because of an indefinite hold on submissions to the Federal Register, according to an email reviewed by The Transmitter.
