On Trump’s orders, the National Center for Atmospheric Research will be shut down after more than 50 years as a leader in global research on climate science and monitoring. This is what authoritarian science looks like.

Destroy the Metrics, Destroy the Truth
Trump’s decimation of public health systems isn’t about efficiency, cost-saving, or even ideology. It’s about building a world without truth or the possibility of accountability.

Thanks to one of my mutuals, a preteen girl got a legit Mamdani t-shirt and campaign buttons for Christmas.
“Now he’s like us, right?”
That meant someone got to draw this and do an impromptu lecture to an actually interested child. I don’t know who is happier, man or child.

Anti-trans demagogue and fifth place swimmer Riley Gaines earned $470,000+ last year from a conservative non-profit.
Notably, $420k was incentive-based.
A neat little window into the way the transphobic grift is being compensated.
I wonder what the per-post rate is?
