How many times does this have to happen and how many immigrants terrorized. Same result every fucking time. This country does not run without immigrants.

This ugly ass flyer is put out the same day Peter announces the end of “patriot corner” mind you lol.
If you’ve been moved & inspired by Artemis, NASA needs your help. Literally during A2, the president proposed cutting NASA science 47%, canceling 54 missions, including many already in-flight. To help stop these cuts, check out @planetarysociety.bsky.social www.planetary.org/save-nasa-sc...
People saying that student protestors were ineffective in protesting for Gaza really are missing that public sentiment has swung pretty fast and far on that, and they were absolutely a part of that.
I'm 40 been protesting and organizing since I was 16, I've organized a union consisting entirely of people in their late teens and early 20's, I professionally organized students for a decade.
I'm STILL around engaged young folks and families.
So here's my perspective (cont):
Happy to be part of the magic!
The threat itself is an impeachable offense. Don’t let it slide.
If it helps, I believe fans see Hat Jayne as the “heart of gold” part of his “asshole dumbass with a heart of gold” character
Uh, also many foreign students pay more, even unfairly more- essentially subsidizing locals to attend. (Like upwards of 80k vs 16k in-state for Cal)
VP is lying. Full of ignorant, disingenuous bullshit, playing on people's anxieties.
Title: Hunting for Easter eggs with Werner Herzog Panel one: Werner goes out looking for eggs saying “I despise this idiotic sanitized ritual, and yet I am unwilling to return home eggless” Panel two: Werner stands before an egg on the ground “The joy of discovery rings hollow against the monumental indifference of the universe” Panel three: Werner carries an egg “what, other than regret, can hatch from this empty chocolate vessel”
Happy Easter!
Imagine being prejudiced against someone for saying "I volunteer for taxes and jury duty." The whole immigration debate would be over in a day if we had more of those dogs that only bite racists.
The White House just unveiled a budget with a 50% cut to NASA science (astrophysics, climate change, etc) and overall 23% cut to NASA
The goal: make NASA only for things like Artemis, which is explicitly a militarization and commercialization mission

I'm pretty sure Congress will restore NASA's proposed budget, if not fully, at least mostly, as they did with last year's ridiculous and devastating proposed cuts by Trump.
For those of you who love space exploration: we have robots exploring all across the solar system, and they can’t make anybody any money, they just discover cool stuff, so billionaires aren’t interested. Rovers and orbiters at Mars, orbiter at Jupiter, missions on the way to distant asteroids…
Everyone needs to just keep repeating this, over and over.
The politics of a case is NOT JUST ABOUT THAT CASE. There is a meta-game here too.
This case is surely going to be used as cover for gutting the VRA. And too many pundits are going to fall for it.

Ice agents
1 Just passed through security at La Guardia. ICE entirely doing security! 100% of ID and identity checks done by ICE…Truly icky and dystopian. Some thoughts.
Carter: Colonel!
O'Neill (p90 pointed offscreen): come on, Daniel, what does it say?
Daniel Jackson: well if Im reading this right, they worshipped a being named "Miette", who had the power to imprison you for... one thousand years...
Teal'c: I believe it would be most unwise to awaken this "Miette"
a sigil from the game fallen london which means "the vexing improbability which, nevertheless, is the result you got"
How do you turn a vast text game like Fallen London into a TTRPG?
We've spent a year working with @magpiegames.bsky.social to do exactly that.
In May, backers will get the first look at the full PDF of the game (and you can still back, actually).
What have we learned?
>10,000 STEM PhDs have left federal service over the past year (including 30% of the federal colleagues with whom I’ve worked closely). Those still left are holding federal science together with duct tape.
What an extraordinary act of sabotage against the American people.
This is wild: a company is secretly scanning the internet for Zoom meeting links and turning them into AI-generated podcasts for $$$. Some meeting participants only found out after we told them. Included meeting on protecting kids from ICE, was supposed to be private www.404media.co/this-company...
The amount of skepticism I have for this spacecraft is colossal.
There's no mention of SR1 anywhere on NASA's site. Some news of advances in nuclear propulsion are on the site but nothing indicating they're ready to build such a rocket. Having one built and ready to go in less than 2 years? Huh.
It's funny bc Delta also literally told the CDC that COVID didn't need 10 day isolation times... wild how easy they can get rules changed for 330 million people in this country when it's our damn health but now they gotta do this to get their own money, ok...

This is fantastic information.
Scientific data from studies done on men across all variables, that crushes any argument about transgender women and hormones.

Tea’s caffeine is modified by L-theanine, which acts like a modulator, the theobromine is another modifier,and the tannins grab the caffeine molecules and behave like time release technology. So coffee’s caffeine ends up hitting more like an excitant while tea‘s is more diffused.
If you are a bog standard white dude I really dont think your lack of fear of ICE in the airport is meaningful.
Like yeah ofc youre not scared?
This is now the LOST generation for all doctoral research, from engineering to public health, from literature to psychology, from religion to economics. Some programs will suffer more than others, but this is a tremendous loss to the future. This is ALL on #RussellVought #DonaldTrump #JDVance.
US science conferences are being turned into the DashCon ball pit.
Something I didn’t anticipate about living under full Federal fascism is how quickly I would forget things. Things that happened a week ago are quickly memory-holed because we have to endure a daily firehose of bullshit.
Yesterday, I decided to watch/listen to Bruce’s Streets of Minneapolis again.
