A postdoc with a newborn just told me daycare in Boston is ~$30,000/year 🤯 Despite having dual incomes, the cost is so prohibitive they are considering just going into industry... I wish there was a mechanism similar to the NIH Diversity Supplement to help parents with new borns

Starting in January I applied to 5 REUs, had a dozen or more networking meetings, applied to at least 8 positions. Finally 1 job. Full time offer. Graduate job level in research with a BS degree. ❤️ I’ve made it and it’s only the beginning 🤩 #Yahweh

I've always been a proud Texan. I've always wanted to end up back there. I have made excuses and let a lot of stuff pass. But this is a deal breaker. I would never raise a daughter in my home state. #AbortionBan #TexasAbortionLaw

Why do we somehow have endless money to give tax breaks to the rich and large corporations, but when we start talking about child care and pre-K education for working class families, somehow we can't afford it? Totally absurd.
