Fun times with #STAIX26 at @harvard.edu . #AIsky #statsky #MLsky

A great day with @nber.org and now a sweet treat at Toscanini 's.

You can tell a lot about a leader by listening to the people who worked for them. Those who worked for Tony Fauci uniformly respected him. Today’s congressional hearing was a witch hunt, part of a larger effort to undermine science and scientists. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

Fauci invokes Fifth Amendment at Rand Paul-led US Senate COVID hearing

🧵(1) Fellow #JSM2026 attendees, I will NOT host office hours this year because I'm now a section chair-elect, and I must prioritize all of my NsOA for FY 2026. If you are a PI interested in talking with me about your aims, summary statement, or resubmission plan, I request you wait until FY 2027.

The fact that a former ICO director of ours must defend himself in front of Senator Paul (a physician himself) on the origins of COVID-19 is deplorable. Support the #NIH. We are here in our personal capacities.

Some people I know have been hurting recently. I wrote some love letters and provided care packages for some. Some recipients said it made their day. When the world sucks, kindness provides the greatest ROI. I don't need you to do it back for me, but if you enjoyed what I did, I'm satisfied.

Scroll to about 4 hours and 35 minutes. Dr. Manly comes in with a great question. Our director gaslights her and the entire #NIH community. Pass this around. It is public. Don't let this continue. Hold Dr. Bhattacharya accountable.

I'm devastated. We have to surrender Sprinkles. She is so sweet, but the other three cats are traumatized by her. I've never had to do this before, and I feel like such a failure.

Great post from @csmarcum.bsky.social and @denicewross.bsky.social . I'm a fellow of the @amstatnews.bsky.social and understand the significance of these measures. Research infrastructure and real-world data are priorities of the #NIA and #NIH.

Yesterday, J had put a pair of underwear in one of the coffee mugs along with a pair of dirty socks. I assumed he was soaking it in some cleaning solution. He then put the water in a spray bottle and told spouse he made a "perfume" called dirty sock and underwear perfume.

(1) The best song from I Built You a Tower is Trap Door. It haunts me because of my father's death. My relationship with my father was not as awful as Mugsy's & Cappy's from #Loudermilk, but yes, my father personified functional #alcoholism. It exacerbated his #ADRD.

Mugsy quits the group

Vocational school or trade school is higher education. A "brainiac" can thrive in a different area of expertise, and the bottom line is trades require business acumen. "What will my girlfriend think?" I have a solution. Dump the girlfriend.

In Turning to Trade School, Gen Z Confronts an Enduring Stigma (Gift Article)

Gen Z is increasingly turning to trade schools in hopes of future-proofing their careers against A.I. But getting their parents and peers on board can be a challenge.

Don't abolish the #NIH. Fix it.

Don't abolish the NIH. Fix it.

Scott Atlas wants to abolish the National Institutes of Health and let markets take over ("NIH is a government weapon for political power. Abolish it," Washington Post, July 2).

Our country’s Independence Day is a day for patriotism, so I want to reflect on what patriotism does and does not mean. Patriotism does not mean unquestioning support for those who currently run our country. Nor does it mean an unwillingness to acknowledge and learn from our mistakes. 🧵1/?

This week I sat under oath in front of Congress and watched Republican lawmakers use the ghost of MKUltra to attack the NIH, dismiss vaccine science, and perform for a packed room of true believers. This is what that looked like from the witness table. elizabethginexi.substack.com/p/i-went-to-...

Can anyone here recommend a comprehensive online record store? I love treasure hunting in our local shops and often go directly to the artists' merch, but sometimes I'm in a rush. Thanks, #musicsky, @bwjones.bsky.social , and anyone else.
