Wouldn't it be cool to invest trillions of dollars into a technology that would actually make society better?

Maybe we can call it “HI” — Human Intelligence.

Instead of “data centers”, we could fund “schools”.

Instead of *stealing* art, literature, and science, we help people *create* it.

Crazy!

Maybe you should talk to the scientists with pending proposals at NSF…they are killing university based research and education… and every other type of research

My Gen X self had to be notified of successful launch and splashdown. Still traumatized by the live action I experienced in 5th grade. Yay Artimis II!

I went to sleep and woke up in the 1950s… Maybe these fragile men aren’t willing to make less for doing more. My advice to manly men looking for girly jobs…talk less, smile more, and stop being so emotional. Also, they should calm down.

They aren’t the only ones waiting. My lab runs out of federal funds April 30. I’ve had the best proposal I’ve ever written sitting at nsf since June and … crickets. US science is being killed and there is no press coverage except for medicine and NASA…

Is Trump About To Nuke Iran? The fact we can't say "no" for sure should terrify us.

We had a discussion about this and someone proposed a hot take for the conversation discussing the timeline on this and the lack of understanding of the treaty process. But we were declined.

I’ve been saying this too. We need to be more French.

#nokings in St Pete FL with @oceanandclimate.bsky.social and @drtrevorwilliams.bsky.social. Summary: more people, more men 40-60, not enough 18-30 year olds. More honking and fewer fingers. Florida is shifting (I think).

I love Clayton! My grandfather was Stanton Forbes. He had a house between the y camp and chatooga, where Lilian smith used to visit quite often. My mom is pretty-ordering.

She was friends with my grandfather. His name was right below MLK Jr on the wall where she wrote her phone numbers. My dad once saved her library from a fire when lightning struck her house on screamer mountain while my parents were visiting. Nice to see the recognition of here in this era.

Email your senators to urge them not to confirm Jim O’Neill as Director of the National Science Foundation.

He's not a scientist, has no relevant expertise, promoted vaccine misinformation, helped gut the CDC, and his Silicon Valley ties raise questions about protecting the public interest.

Why I may ‘hire’ AI instead of a graduate student “It can competently perform a lot of the work I need immediately,” this professor writes

This person should be fired from their job, because they clearly don’t value teaching or learning. Gross. My students bring me the greatest joy and are the reason I do what I do.

As a kid, my great aunt Mary woods hole (family nickname) gave me a book each Thanksgiving. The books were always about adventures (swallows and amazons was a fave) and she would write that I could do anything and be anything I wanted to be. ADHD and oceanography must be genetic.

White House stalls release of approved US science budgets The US Congress rejected sweeping cuts to science agencies. But the NIH, the NSF and NASA have had their spending slowed.

Congress rejected massive cuts to US science budgets for 2026, but much of the money still isn’t flowing to researchers.

The culprit? The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) is quietly slow-walking the release of funds. 🧵👇
