Practicing writing is practicing thinking
The boycott of OpenAI(ChatGPT) has now surpassed 4 million. We’re also seeing many small businesses (and even some mid-sized companies) cancel their subscriptions. One of the most amazing things over the past year has been watching consumers remind big corporations just how much power they have.
I've received an 'exclusive' invite to try Nature's new 'research assistant', which will burn down a forest to provide a 'summary of the paper' I'm reading and I have SUCH exciting news for them, that's called an 'abstract' and the actual authors already wrote it for me, no forest-burning required.
"We'll just terraform Mars," they insist, unable to terraform Earth, a planet that is already perfect except it's like 2° too warm.
“The findings suggest that if scientists want to increase public urgency around climate change, they should highlight clear, concrete shifts instead of slow-moving trends.
That could include the loss of white Christmases or outdoor summer activities canceled because of wildfire smoke.”

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.
Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.
Inside me there are two wolves. One of them has a 15 genome edits the other 20 genome edits. Neither of them is a dire wolf.
Doctor!!
CRAWFORD: “Wisconsin stood up and said justice does not have a price, our courts are not for sale.”

Define "greenwashing"
If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.
AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together
Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."
A sincere and friendly question:
Why ask this of university presidents but not the board of trustees that employ them?
If you've ever wondered what you would've done when terrible things happened in the past - you're doing it now.
The 40-day #TargetBoycott was launched by Black clergy on March 5, but it's never too late to join the effort! (And if you forgot? Don't beat yourself up - just start again.)
Daily Mail news headline 'Almost one MILLION people in Britain cannot speak English, figures show'
And over 65 million people in Britain cannot speak any Welsh, Gaelic, Cornish, or Scots, nor sign in British Sign Language.

Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them."
It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.
“It’s extremely alarming that grants that have been vetted by the scientific community and deemed important and impactful to understand the world are now being cancelled because of political ideology,” says @lkfazio.bsky.social.
“This is direct censorship of scientific research.”
Just posted: Iowa Republicans made history in the worst way last week.
I wanted to compile some of the most compelling testimonies Republicans ignored as they fast-tracked an omnibus discrimination bill. (with videos & partial transcripts)

Non-American friends, don’t vacation or visit now. There’s nothing to do in this country without spending $$$$$, and you’ll also risk getting detained and put in abysmal conditions before being deported, even if you have a return flight planned.
I’m a U.S. Citizen, I was almost “deported” once. 🧵
Studying plant diversity helps secure more resilient food systems. Scientists have been doing groundbreaking research, “and then you get flagged and blacklisted because there is a word like ‘female’ in your project”

Congrats, everyone—the Elon boycott is working! Reports indicate that Tesla inventory is swelling, especially with Cybertrucks piling up outside their factory. Keep the boycott going, and don’t forget—today is the Economic Blackout!
This. People seem to really want to talk themselves and others out of trying to take any action at all, and it seems they’re so scared of trying anything that doesn’t have a guarantee of success.
Looking at some survey data here. Trump/Elon cutting off all cancer cure research is the issue that freaks voters out more than any other, also the one they've heard the least about. Important for voters to hear more about this.
