The Disclosure Foundation sent a formal letter to arXiv regarding the rejection of two recent submissions from astronomer Dr. Beatriz Villarroel.
I've never posted on arXiv before...Does someone have experience with their procedures for accepting/rejecting papers? Curious to hear your thoughts.

Parapsychology and Researching the UAP Experience. The author is a prof at the Royal Military College of Canada, Toronto, Canada. He argues that UAP/UFOs still reflects outdated materialist assumptions and overlooks insights from parapsychology. Good read.

#ufosky I heard that showing the video was a last minute decision and that it had not been vetted prior to the hearing. People need to be more diligent. Debunkers will use this to continue to discredit everything and set back the process....sigh ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=64zl...

Reaction to U.S. ambassador being 'disappointed' with anti-American sentiment in Canada A day after U.S. Ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra expressed frustration over the anti-American sentiment he sees in Canada, the CBC’s Ashley Burke asked people outside of Parliament Hill in Ottawa what they think of the comments.

Pete Hoekstra is an a**hat. Point final. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

What’s the Deal with U.F.O.s? Scientists consider whether we’ve been visited by aliens or their technology.

#ufosky A well-balanced article about the odds of aliens. Nothing new to those in the know but it is a good starting point for the uninitiated on the topic. It concludes with "A person who thinks the odds are much higher, I’d argue, shouldn’t be met with ridicule.' www.newyorker.com/culture/anna...

RFK Jr.: This is what led to CDC director’s firing He told the Senate Finance Committee that Susan Monarez told him she was not β€˜trustworthy.’

#RFK β€œI told her she had to resign because I asked her, β€˜Are you a trustworthy person?’ and she said β€˜No,’” Kennedy said.

Does he really think that his lies sound even remotely plausible??? What a joke.

The 68% Prime Minister: Why Mark Carney’s Canada Is Winning at Homeβ€”and Building a New World Order Abroad Spark Insights puts Prime Minister Mark Carney’s approval at 68% nationally, with a β€œremarkable” 59% in Albertaβ€”the hardest province for any Liberal to crack.

PM Carney is polling at 68% federally which is unheard of four months in. What’s more unheard of is he’s polling at 59 percent approval in Blue Alberta! Dean Blundell lays out the facts and explains why here! A great article!

The question is: how much of these decisions are based on meaningful reform and budgetary concerns versus undue pressure from the government? πŸ€”

Some nuance to add: I completed my PhD at Boston U, which has also suspended some PhD programs. The reality is that grad students are under-financed and many can't find meaningful employment after graduation. We need to reform PhD programs to make them sustainable for institutions and students.
