No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

Welcome to February.
January saw us have 4 named storms within 5 weeks in south west England. Not cold so much as extremely wet. And now everything is dank. Really dank.
The river Dart on such a morning.

The original of Gaze sold but there are prints going out to people who haven't forgotten and still care. You know, those who commit genocide don't intend to stop until their objective is achieved.

“Light Melts Ice”, 24x24. Acrylic on canvas. Trying to express reactions to our current state of affairs. I want to be hopeful yet very aware of where we are. These are crude and I will probably continue on this after it dries. But it felt good to let anger and outrage flow.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down
