Coming to YOUR city/town in 2027, via GOP & Trump Administration: SLASHING of SNAP by BILLIONS. SLASHING of Medicaid By 1 TRILLION. LISTEN to Rep. Jim McGovern: They're turning America into "A Tale Of Two Cities". UNCONSCIONABLE! (Please REPOST for AWARENESS!)

I was filling out a new patient form and accidentally submitted it with only this in the “Please list current stressors in your life” input Meant to add more but you know what I think this captures it well enough

Online form with field for “Please list current stressors in your life” input, inside it Anna entered “I work in tech” and nothing else

Historian of science Margaret Rossiter (d #OTD in 2025) coined the term #MatildaEffect (1993). Named after suffragist Matilda Joslyn Gage, the Matilda Effect describes a systemic bias where women's scientific achievements are ignored, minimized, or directly attributed to their male colleagues. 1/3

A black-and-white photograph of the pathbreaking American historian of science, Margaret Walsh Rossiter (1944–2025), renowned for coining "the Matilda effect" and documenting the buried history of women in science. Seated in an indoor setting with a soft, blurred background, Rossiter is positioned from the waist up, facing forward with a warm, open smile. She has short, curly gray hair and wears dark, thick-rimmed glasses. She's wearing a light-colored, long-sleeved shirt patterned entirely with small, dark polka dots. She holds a heavy, open book resting on her lap or desk, her left hand steadying the right-hand pages while her right hand rests on the left-hand pages, lightly gripping a pencil. The overall composition is intimate and studious, casting her as an approachable yet deeply focused scholar. The mood is intellectually vibrant and welcoming, reflecting a life dedicated to uncovering the truth.
