Introduction 🧵
I’m an old Midwestern white trans lesbian. I write software for a quantum computing startup. I have multiple overlapping flavors of neurodivergence.
I was raised by television in the 80s, so I’m nostalgic for pop culture of that era.
I take too much at face value.

I’m starting to get worried. I have $90 left after extending my stay here for the next three nights.
I’m a disabled person and have to find housing imminently without any income or savings and now I have no SNAP. If you’re fortunate enough to have some spare dollars I would appreciate it so much if you could send me a donation just to keep my head afloat. My links are in bio. ❤️
They cut off my SNAP.

given that this basically includes ~all~ scientists in the US, this will halt all scientific progress for America
the us govt invests in my company’s research, as does Australia and the UK. i guess those two will get their quantum computers, and the US gets nothing
nice, solid plan

“The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding.”

she’s struggling with this really complicated repetitive part, but said that it might be okay if she flubs it, sometimes the picks are esoteric and people might not be familiar with it
