This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

It'd be fascinating to make the jump to a completely new field. No idea where to start though

Started my Ph.D in August of 2016 only to watch science and medicine be under attack for 4 years. Now, we have the displeasure of experiencing it a second time, and the job market was already an abysmal nightmare
