To emphasize, USFS employees are BARRED from speaking to press about reorg.

That’s right— like any abuser who threatens their victim not to tell of the abuse.

This is why USFS supporters’ voices are key now.

Please call your reps 🙏

This is psychotic. The President of the United States needs to get help. Totally unhinged and extremely dangerous.

New study: humans may evolve resistance to the truth. Animal populations can evolve rapidly in response to stress like temperature or pollution. Now there is evidence that humans fed only lies tend to resist the truth. Epigenetic changes may pass this resistance on to the next generation. Yikes.

I don't think people fully appreciate how apocalyptic things are for US science. I haven't had any new funding since 2024, but I'm still ok since typical grants are for three years. This means next year I will be completely out of funding and will have to fire everyone in the lab. It's not great.

This is one of the guys responsible for terminating grants like mine, forever changing the trajectory of my career. And he can’t even say what DEI is. It would be funny if the consequences hadn’t been so harmful. See my pinned post to get a sense of the damage they caused.

Trump has spent more in 10 days on his reckless war in Iran than America spends in two years on community health centers providing medical care for low-income and uninsured Americans.

Our priorities are out of whack in this country.

A color outdoor portrait of American bacterial geneticist Evelyn Witkin in her later years, standing in a sun-dappled garden or courtyard setting with green foliage and a brick building in the soft-focus background. She is an elderly woman with fair skin, short wavy white hair, gentle smile lines, and warm, thoughtful eyes gazing directly at the camera with a kind, serene expression. She wears a white button-up blouse with subtle textured patterns, small earrings, and a distinctive beaded necklace featuring dark and light beads. A small silver dragonfly brooch is pinned to the left side of her blouse, symbolizing her pioneering work on DNA damage repair (often likened to cellular "rescue" mechanisms). The natural daylight softly illuminates her face, highlighting her dignified and approachable presence as a trailblazing scientist and a Lasker Award and National Medal of Science recipient. The overall mood is one of quiet wisdom, resilience, and quiet celebration of a long, impactful career in #WomenInScience. #WomensHistoryMonth

Geneticist Evelyn Witkin (b. #OTD 1921) pioneered work on DNA damage repair & mutagenesis.

Her discovery of the SOS response revealed how cells actively respond to genetic threats, laying foundations for insights into cancer, aging, radiation effects & chemotherapy resistance. #WomenInSTEM #WHM

That is an insult to Boston Harbor. Maybe the harbor of decades ago - but it is much cleaner than it once was.

ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrĂ­guez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany RodrĂ­guez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
