"Decolonization, it's a process, it's a verb and it's something that doesn't really stop." @gwichintribal "...Does it start through food? Maybe not all of it, but it’s a good start. And I think we’re all headed in that right direction."

seeing stuff like this on tv as a kid would have changed the way i + so many queer people felt about ourselves. the childhood trauma that could’ve been avoided. i am so happy for baby gays today

[matt bernstein @mattxiv]

the people have spoken

@jasminericegirl @carayoun I often miss not only that the other person says, but also what I have said. Like, I want to ask someone to repeat bc I misses it but then realize it was me who said it. I recently found out that not everyone experiences that:(

I repeat- I haven’t been this excited about a discovery since CRISPR. We found something enigmatic that, like CRISPR, is associated with microbial genomes. We have named these unique entities #BORGs

@PlanetB612fm @SaraMStricker So true😂 I love knowing that there are people out there who do love it as much as I do, redoing the boring things until you can say "yeah, it's less likely!"

A lot of concern about mixing the two mRNA vaccines. Due to the vagaries of global supply, most people who got Pfizer will be offered Moderna in the coming weeks. I'll show you why this is a great thing, and why its important to get your second shot as quickly as possible

Academic writing is wild bc you’ll read four articles just to write one sentence.

Anyway, here’s a thread of resources I’ve been using to speed through this review I’m working on:

[Lucas Brown Eyes @LucasBrownEyes]

A third school found the remains of Native children buried under their school.

Think about that. Hundreds of bodies of children are being found. That’d be massive news if it wasn’t Native kids. Where is the outrage? Where is the support? Why doesn’t anyone care?
