Agree! Same at Akouos.

We did “best” at Arrakis. Company holiday to honor and execute democracy. It’s not hard to do tbh.

Please retweet this is you know of one H-1B recipient who has made this country better. @realDonaldTrump please do not sign this order. You would be taking out a piston from your innovation engine.

There has been a lot of discussion of the Swedish approach to coping with the #COVID19 pandemic, and of whether their strategy of more voluntary restrictions and a more rapid approach to reaching ‘herd immunity’ would work. Let’s talk about the results so far. 1/

These are the steps along the path to tyranny. I don’t say so melodramatically. Just with a regard for history. Immunity to tyranny requires standing up, even if just with a tweet, though there’s so much more each us can do. For example... https://t.co/8t6Bpij7Xi
