Virginia followed California's lead, and the results suggest the strategy is working. When accounting for all ongoing mid-decade redistricting efforts, Democrats are now projected to gain eight to ten seats nationally, while Republicans are expected to gain four to eight. The net advantage has shifted meaningfully in Democrats' favor, driven in large part by the Virginia result.

Probably didn't submit a prior auth and that's why the dream was so long
He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence

Causal Inference Interest Group Seminar with Jeremy Labrecque - 11th May 2026 3pm BST
Do you ever claim to be interested in the "association" between variables? This talk may be for you!
@jeremylabrecque.bsky.social will explain when and why such associational language is not appropriate and why causal language should be used instead.

By turning Trump's own redistricting gamble against him, Virginia just changed the math on Congress.
I did not need to have a dream where I struggled with the medical system after capturing a zombie
You ever try to code switch at work and fail? 😂
Put this on your CV @nasingh.bsky.social
I need to hear from this combo of people again
Though maybe doing MORE RESEARCH (ie, working overtime for free) when anxious is probably not the best coping mechanism
Also live alone. I ended up doing a lot of research collaborations and zoom calls. Still doing those, because online friends are real friends
Since US research is imploding I’m writing all sorts of grants these days
Ooh @kristenyoung.bsky.social is the biggest hydralazine hater
Everyone knows they can only get on my calendar if they ask >1 week in advance
Someone actually suggested this (more or less) for a legit scientific grant proposal
This convo is so good and also peppered with expletives
Learning about the ✨ Jay Bhattacharya ✨ movie from this podcast though
BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research?
RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI
B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

My baby got an initial dose of the MMR vaccine early, and I can't even explain how grateful and relieved I am. Worrying that I was going to get exposed at work and then bring it home to him was horrible.
I don’t understand TikTok nor do I want to
