I swear - this administration is hell bent on destroying everything good the US once stood for. #wft #WakeUPAmerica www.npr.org/2025/04/18/n...
The State Department is changing its mind about what it calls human rights
The agency's annual human rights reports are being purged of references to prison conditions, political corruption and other abuses.

Which company are people turning to for sliding microtomes now that Leica has stopped making them? New or refurbished
Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.
Such a beautiful tribute to Larry and his contribution to social neurosci in Japan, China, & Taiwan. It’s amazing how many careers he influenced. Thank you to Sonoko Ogawa and Zuoxin Wang for organizing, the Univ of Tsukuba for hosting, & to all who attended. It means a lot to our family. ❤️❤️
It's just so weird that the entire federal government is working so hard to protect the interests of one extremely wealthy freak

One year ago today, I lost my husband, Larry Young - my best friend, my collaborator, and my source of joy. I am deeply grateful for the 20+ years of memories. I have been lifted by the love and support of my friends and family, & for that, I am forever thankful. With all my love ❤️.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!
This is just so so so wrong on so many fronts. Why is this administration hell bent on decimating science in this country? www.science.org/content/arti...
NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

Absolutely ridiculous that (1) it took a court order to restore information on the CDC website that is vital to the public, & (2) it now contains a 'warning'. What's harmful to society is discounting the existence of gender. Thank you @docderek.bsky.social for bringing this into awareness.
Jai Like the Letter is going to Defcon 34@s0ciabl3ng.bsky.social · last yr.Mary Ellen Pleasant (1814–1904), a wealthy abolitionist, possibly 1st black self-made millionaire, used her role as a servant to infiltrate elite circles, gather intelligence, and build networks.

Praying this is not the end of SABV. And I truly believe what I said in this article - that all of us recognize the benefits of including both males and females in our studies, regardless of policy. @ossdcomm.bsky.social @sbn-bsky.bsky.social #SexXmatters www.thetransmitter.org/policy/exclu...
Exclusive: NIH appears to archive policy requiring female animals in studies
Such a shift would “put us back in the dark ages in terms of our science,” says neuroscientist Anne Murphy, who helped to formulate the original policy.

are you f-ing kidding me? We've sunk that low? un-freaking-believable. wapo.st/41gmlOo
U.S. votes against U.N. resolution condemning Russia for Ukraine war
Washington’s shift on the Ukraine war marks a major break with European allies and comes as the Trump administration aims to repair relations with Russia.

So SABV is now classified as a HISTORIC DOCUMENT published prior to January 20, 2025? Are you freaking kidding me???????? Where/when/how does this end?
Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Listen to Secretary Pete. And remember, these are our funds. These are our courts. And these are our streets.
Could someone do me a HUGE favor? Read Project 2025 and provide me with a synopsis of what’s coming next? Maybe like a top 5 for February. That way I can more realistically estimate how much wine I need to purchase ahead of time.
Grateful to have been a part of this #WCBR2025 panel on the long-term consequences of perinatal exposure to THC, opioids, and/or nicotine. Great meeting and so nice to catch up with everyone. Safe travels home, all. @lallaii.bsky.social
No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.
