Can someone (or some epic legal machine) please litigate this administration into oblivion? I've never seen so many constitutional violations & impeachable offenses in so short a period of time. How long are we going to keep saying "Something's gotta give; something will stop them in their tracks?!"

THIS. 👉

Have you noticed that Trump only won the presidency when he had a woman opponent? Both times.

That says more about us as a country and our failure to recognize the power of women than it does about him as a man.

He seeks to rule by decree because he cannot govern within the law.

“They’re taking our jobs” was always a lie. Alabama proved it.

Alabama tried a “tough” immigration law, and it backfired hard. Immigrants fled, crops rotted, and farms collapsed. Americans tried to step in but couldn’t last a day.

They’re not taking your jobs; they’re doing the jobs you won’t do.

“It is not a radical idea to say that every man, woman and child in America can have a decent standard of living.”

My article has been published online as of this morning! I'm so stoked!

This article will be in the October 2025 edition (v. 182) of the Journal of Archaeological Science. The link here gives everyone free access to the article until October 21st - please read and share widely!

Resigning is tantamount to complying in advance. DO NOT comply in advance. Fight fascism and authoritarianism however you can, whenever you can. Always.

Hi, immunologist here:

(a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes)

RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation”

That’s NOT how immunology works.

He is an anti-science profiteer.
Start calling him such.

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.

Me over here, having to wait a year to get a regular old checkup with a primary care provider in the American healthcare system despite being told that my doctors office was “accepting new patients.” Yeah, ok.

They’re pretty much perfect as is - thus why I was sworn to secrecy as a child! But we do dress them up when given as gifts around Christmas time by putting them on a “fancy” (aka holiday) sturdy paper plate, wrapped in clear cling wrap, and with a festive bow on top!

Took an unintentional break from #Science #Trivia #Saturday this summer (life, chaos, heat waves, ugh). Looking forward to getting back into things with the autumn semester, though! Send me your favorite science facts (the odder, the better), and I'll feature them throughout the school year! 🧪

Watchdog Group Downgrades U.S. From Democracy To Whatever Political System Lobsters Have theonion.com/watchdo...

Article I Sections 9 & 10 of the U.S. Constitution—which limit presidential power over tariffs and protect habeas corpus—have disappeared from Congress’s website. They claim a coding error is to blame.

Let that sink in for a sec.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

"i asked grok" "i asked chatgpt" yeah well i asked carl sagan and he said the greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge 🧪

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

When history marks the point where we lost the future to China, this will be it.
