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.

If watching the news feels too heavy right now, I see you. I get it. That reaction makes complete sense.

Heads up, folks.
New, from me: Trump finalized his Schedule F policy, allowing him to remove job protections from career civil servants.
The new rule is dishonest and unmoored from reality in its effort to formalize the politicization of the federal government 🧵

I 100% expect him to do this, yes.
He’s going to tear down the Kennedy Center. The entire building. He tore down half the White House and no one stopped him; now he’s doing this. It’s annoying how many people are pretending they don’t understand this is what he’s openly saying he’s going to do.

Trump and Republicans have made it crystal clear they have zero interest in working with Democrats on anything.
The only thing Trump and Republicans want to fix, is elections.
