Becky Sullivan of NPR has written this terrible article about the cynical "protect college sports" bill, that frames as bipartisan the intentional attempt to undo what I and many other people accomplished: reducing the financial exploitation of some of the poorest, Blackest kids in the nation.

The Protect College Sports Act is on the brink of passing in the Senate, where a handful of former college athletes who are now senators on both sides of the aisle have an extra say in the debate. n.pr/4d9LuBg

New Yorkers can vote for the people who write state law. They can't propose law themselves. No citizen ballot initiative exists here at the state level, and that shapes what reform is even possible. 🧵

This is actually heartbreaking. This museum is my favorite place in the entire city and inspired me as a child and as an adult. There’s gotta be a way to save it. www.inquirer.com/education/ac...

The Academy of Natural Sciences is closing its museum after nearly two centuries

The closure does not affect the rest of the institution, which builds and maintains the collections and conducts research through departments such as the Patrick Center for Environmental Research.

My comment on NSF-2026-OTR-0001, NSF's obsequious gutting of their own procedures, replacing them with OMB's proposed rules undermining federal grantmaking with their ideological agenda. Need guidance on commenting? @standupforscience.net has you covered: fight2win.standupforscience.net #NSF

Friends, let’s do this. Here is the link to make a comment - www.regulations.gov/document/NSF...

Hey folks, this hasn’t gotten much attention, but remember those proposed OMB rule changes we all commented on recently? There’s a new attempt to sneak them just for NSF. We have three days to comment. Please don’t sleep on this!

Our dept @colgate.edu is hiring a tenure-stream asst prof in paleoclimate! We are so excited to learn about everyone's work & welcome our new colleague. Review of applications begins September 1. Pls share broadly. For details & to apply: apply.interfolio.com/188708

The NSF Proposal is a not-so-sneaky attempt to implement Vought’s OMB Proposal before it’s finalized. Take action against the NSF Proposal; Leave your public comment: zurl.co/j2JCa Join us today at the NSF Rapid Response Workshop, 2-3PM ET: zurl.co/IXE9L

What can development contribute to predicting evolution? I argue it sets what evolution can access, and this depends on timescale since different parts of development evolve at different rates. Hence coarse-graining: keep only what matters 📣 New in @evojlinnsoc.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/evol...
