Rider down, I repeat rider down

Right now somebody’s therapist is hearing about YOU

Going to the gas station and grocery store on the same day costs more than the rent on my first apartment and I want to fistfight god

Time blindness with #adhd is real

My biggest hurdle to getting work done is opening the laptop.

If I open it, even just to play solitaire, I'll get things done that weren't even on my to do list.

If I don't open it, I don't exist.

Can you tell I got bored during Onyx Storm and STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED IT. 😂

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove Chuck Schumer from leadership and replace him with someone willing to fight

Again, this title is biased and misleading. What is wrong with you?

This is a biased and leading headline. The bill is shit. The Republicans are responsible because they proposed a dangerous bill.

Protesters gather during Stand Up for Science, a rally against cuts to science and research funding, outside the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall in Washington, DC, on Friday, March 7, 2025.

A questionnaire sent last week to recipients of grants from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) asked whether their research projects would “contribute to limiting illegal immigration” or “defend against gender ideology,” among other things. cen.acs.org/policy/resea... #chemsky🧪

This account is for sharing info with US scientists, both extramural and intramural to NIH, about attacks on science in the US.

Education is power, and we can help advocate for science and medicine together. 💪🧪

We are a team of NIH people. Please ask us questions you might have.

Though a certain ~boycott~ ends tomorrow, indie bookshops need our support all year long.

We're not going anywhere 💓

A Wikipedia section heading, “Recognition and discrimination”

Browsing Wikipedia pages about women in STEM

Yep, I would eat this. Probably this weekend.

NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world.

This photo hits hard.

Our coalition has grown to 30,000 federal employees. Details regarding new guidance will be distributed. For those not in our coalition, here is a public message: hide any online content that is public, document everything you witness or experience, and keep daily notes at home with dates and times.

Anyway as they pull bodies out of the Potomac bear in mind that the guiding ethos of Trumpism is that the TSA, NTSB, and FAA should be radically downsized and run by dudes whose main qualifications are loyalty are a willingness to say “cunt” a lot

We made it through chapter 27 but...only 70 pages in 2 hours?! Why am I just CRAWLING through this book?! 😭

The one-upmanship of audacity is...inspiring? I truly wish I possessed the level of audacity that fictional royal men possess.

I aspire to give as few shits as Tairn does when he wants to amuse himself.

Poor Mira, she's really going through it on this trip as a big sister 😂

Can Narelle be my grandma? This woman could gossip with the best of my Midwestern family.

#OnyxStorm #booksky #booktok

If Narelle and Stanley Hudson aren't related, I will be wildly surprised.
