A roll of aluminum foil is maybe one of the most incredible things you will ever hold in your life. That was a creation for kings and you wrap it around food and throw it in the dumpster. You talk about planes as aluminum cans, as if both are not one of the most incredible creations in history.

Beautiful start to what's a very complicated day for many of us.

Love what you love.

Be bitter to what you hate.

Roll with whatever is inbetween.

If you have none of that, go watch ducks or duck footage 😇 🪶

Nearly every mechanism that made my career possible—Ford, NSF, Harvard BiGS—is gone or on the way to the chopping block.
This means NSF dissertation improvement grants in the social sciences are simply...not happening.
NEW from me - NSF cancels grant scheme for social science research.

Seems the NSF quietly archived ALL calls for DDRIG grants in the SBE directorate. This is a massive blow for PhD students wanting to do cutting-edge social science research. 🏺🧪

Among the things I am thankful for is the courage and patriotism of all the federal workers who blew the whistle on agency policies that harm Americans, and those who support us. #CourageIsContagious Art by @drrabbithole.bsky.social

Ha! If AI writes something, but no human ever reads it, does the “work” still exist?

I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.
