Black graphic with text "KNOW YOUR PROTEST RIGHTS You don’t need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don’t need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you’re not obstructing traffic or access to buildings. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police. If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries. If you get stopped by the police, ask if you’re free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away. If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don’t sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present. If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement office at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you’ll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney — no matter your citizenship or immigration status."

If you're taking to the streets for No Kings protests today, know your rights.

Despite the obvious superiority of fresh-frozen material for genomics, many samples are still stored in FFPE and remain challenging to characterize with Whole-genome sequencing. But here comes our solution:

Excited to share this preprint that describes my latest work on using GPUs to accelerate processing of RNA-seq data.

$300 Million in jet planes lost to a fuckup.

That’s 83 five year NIH R01 grants burned in minutes due to error, aka poor execution of this unnecessary war which serves only to make the world more dangerous.

As a federally funded researcher, every time I see the now customary start of war videos showing a BGM-109 TLAM launching from the bow magazine of a U.S. DDG at $2.5M a pop (FY 2023), I see a fully funded 5 year flagship NIH R01 biomedical research grant zooming off into oblivion.

On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed E.O. 9066, authorizing the forced relocation & incarceration of more than 125,000 Japanese Americans, solely because of their heritage.

Exclusive: Key US infectious-diseases centre to drop pandemic preparation Staff members have been instructed to scrub this topic and ‘biodefense’ from the agency’s website.

Nothing says ‘I’m a tough guy with the biggest baddest military in the world, and no one can mess with me if WWIII happens!’ Like scrubbing all mention of biodefense or pandemic preparedness does.

Jailed for refusing to abide by FDR's Exec Order 9066, he took his case against internment all the way to the Supreme Court - and lost. Remember him on Korematsu Day, January 30th. 1/

*Homan.. sorry for the typo, but I’m pretty sure you know which recipient of $50k in tax payer cash, delivered in a shopping bag, I am referring too. You know, the one who was never senate confirmed, and thus should not be in any chain of command in MN.

Just called both of my senators @schumer.senate.gov and @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social to let them know that appropriations for DHS are not compatible with a free society and that personnel shuffles do not matter. Even if my federal funding ends as a result, DHS must go and Holman Bondi et al too

A snowy bus stop outside the NIH. Snow on the ground and sleeting down, everything is grey and white.

Fighting through snow so I can do my science. Animal care staff, building staff, clinical staff, nurses, doctors, veterinarians all work through these weather conditions to make the NIH run.

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Amazon's Ring to partner with Flock, a network of AI cameras used by ICE, feds, and police | TechCrunch Agencies that use Flock can request that Ring doorbell users share footage to help with "evidence collection and investigative work."

Seems like voluntarily installing a secret police surveillance node at one’s own expense might be an action that one’s neighbors find upsetting. Would be weird and totally unrelated if all of a sudden lots of these went missing, or had sensors damaged with lasers etc
