Appropriations are the closest thing to the will of the electorate there is, however problematic. Failure to exercise the appropriations is a tremendous breach. Any “post trump” order should include current NSF leadership in prison.

Mexico too!

Max. Ish.

Done with the slide for tomorrow. Off to bed.

And people worry about academic integrity. lol

Just sayin, if we are "cleaning up the risk pool", I have some suggestions.

Writing the chapter where I start engaging with the shifts in science policy in Mexico in the late 2010s and so many memories come to mind. Including a very awkward experience in high school.

That's wonderful! I also remember being in awe of the video. Tried to explain to my kid how utterly mindblowing it was, but CGI has all but destroyed imagination.

The ASSA doesn't have these dumb af titles, and that's a good thing. The whole thing with "conference themes" is absolutely ridiculous, particularly when you pretend like your conference is somehow changing things for real

"Filling your CV with things no-one will actually count" would be a more honest title for the conference. Or maybe even "deducting drinks with buddies as a work-related trip"

"disrupting the status quo at $420 per person"
What a joke

I, for one, welcome the possibility of avoiding Texas airspace as much as physically possible

What an odd thing to do for an always trumpster to make it more efficient to not visit or even be in the vicinity of fly-over states

hashtag portfolio diversification fail.

I can even prescribe things*!
