The best summary of the ongoing USGOV situation I've seen. One wonders if @schumer.senate.gov has anyone on staff with this level of clear insight.
Some thoughts on the CR/minibus.
1 The Dems negotiating with Rs were not freelancing. They coordinated with Sen Schumer. A few were ready to give in on day one, others worked to maximize appropriations wins.
Those voting for the 'deal' are the ones furthest away from electoral consequences.

Really great and spooky for Halloween 'thread' 😀 about these interesting spiders. I grew up around them and was always on the lookout for their 'messy webs', shaking out shoes or anything else where they might be hiding out.
Up next in our Creepy Critters 🎃 is 'the' black-widow spider, which SURPRISE! is actually 34 species in genus Latrodectus ("robbing" + "biter").
They're found on every continent but Antarctica.
So why are they "widows"?
Because sometimes, the females eat the males after mating.

The hierarchy problem (finetuning) of the Standard Model of particle physics is often presented as the question 'why the weak scale is so much smaller than the Planck scale'
But there is also a geometric interpretation that can be understood with little maths (but a lot of physics)

Donor–Acceptor Stenhouse Adducts as Intrinsically Photoswitchable Dynamic Covalent Bonds
Combining dynamic covalent bonds with photoswitches allows the kinetics and thermodynamics of exchange to be controlled with light. However, this two-component strategy introduces synthetic and compatibility challenges. Here, we present a single-component strategy using donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) as both the photoswitch and the dynamic covalent bond. DASAs isomerize from “open” to “closed” forms with light and heat, respectively. We discovered that open DASA isomers undergo dynamic covalent exchange of their amine donor via two pathways, reversible dissociation and conjugate transamination. Exchange can then be arrested upon irradiation to form the closed DASA isomer, offering a handle to gate dynamic behavior. Consequently, incorporating DASAs as cross-linkers in PDMS-based networks yields covalent adaptable networks (CANs) with viscoelastic behavior that can be tuned by light. We also identify degradation pathways that limit the reversibility of this system under extended heating. Overall, DASA exchange represents a synthetically accessible platform for photocontrolled soft materials. More broadly, this work introduces DASAs as a new class of intrinsically photoswitchable dynamic covalent bonds and lays the foundation for the discovery of other stimuli-gated dynamic bonds that combine reactivity and responsiveness in a single molecular unit.
