In high school, I was complaining about how long the school day was and my teacher turned to me and said, "the days are long, but the years are short" and I was like "what the fuck are you talking about you lunatic" and then the bell rang and now I'm in my 30s.
Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.
Pacers are a gritty team. Dig em.
Best news. Your voice in Facebook has sustained me through so much.
The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.
A green stag stands atop a hill, his antlers fill the top of the page and are filled with plants and birds. In the hill he stands on, a doe leaps over her fawn. Below them two foxes chase a rabbit who waits at the opening of a warren.

Proud of our work! It was recognized as one of the best posters at the Midwest Clinical and Translation Science 2025 Conference.

chatgpt has fully broken-through to every facet of the corporate environment. I'm spending a not-insignificant amount of my time every week now explaining to people that just because chatgpt told you that something was possible doesn't mean that it a) is or b) even exists
Periodic reminder that Trump not only didn't run on any of this but very specifically rejected all of it when he publicly renounced Project 2025, and that none of it would be popular enough to become law, even with Republicans in full control, which is why he's doing it by fiat. Nobody wanted this.
Free Mahmoud Khalil. It's important to protect speech, even, perhaps especially, when we don't agree what's being said. If we don't support other people's First Amendment rights, then who will protect ours? We have to all be in this together.
A premonition then…
There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.
Protestor's sign reads "I can't believe I'm marching for facts"

Good showing at Indiana Statehouse for #StandUpForScience2025.
My friends, we need to act quickly to keep the best science infrastructure in the world from being intentionally dismantled. The repercussions will be rapid and extreme if we don’t rise from our comfy chairs and engage. Now.
Friendly reminder: if you are waiting on something from a US-based scientist/reviewer/editor, please realize that we're barely making it through each day putting out non-stop fires and trying not to collapse into tears. We're trying our best, but things will take longer right now. Give grace.
For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.
RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen.
1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.
It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?
Interesting that CDC layoffs and Texas outbreak are trending at the same time. Bleak foreshadowing…
REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!
Flu cases are high, TB cases continue to spread, a new, more virulent strain of the avian flu, H5N9, has been found. The AMA is stepping up to get the word out to the public as the CDC and NIH are still banned from public announcements about these illnesses.

This article gives an excellent overview of the impact on universities and US research will be if the announced cuts to NIH indirect cost rates hold.
Not good

I can’t believe this needs to be said, but cutting funding for cancer research is not how you make America great.
