🚨 🚨 Once in a while you spot a scientist with real integrity. Major kudos to @deevybee.bsky.social for resigning from Royal Society over Musk’s continuing fellowship stating that the fellowship was "a contradiction of all the values" of UK’s academy of sciences. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I don’t care what bathroom you use.
I don’t care what car you drive.
I don’t care how many followers you had on twitter.

Except it’s better. Surge pricing all day every day. Buy your Canadian lumber now!
If you like Uber surge pricing then you are going to LOVE tariffs!

Gratitude to #PBS for the calm, evenhanded, non-cortisol-surge-inducing #PBSNewsHour. Relevant, sane, informative, sans drama. Even better than #BBC and #CBC. For 56 minutes every day I feel like a citizen of the educable world.🙏🏼

Something that I personally nagged my IT people about incessantly. Better ramp up protections.
1/ The U.S. EPA’s Office of Inspector General released a report on cybersecurity weaknesses in drinking water systems. Here’s why it matters and what needs to change. 🧵

One thing to remember as RFK dismantles public health and Muskaswamy dismantles the entire government is that safety regulations are 100% written in blood. Each rule is meant to address a situation where someone died. Maybe a lot of someones! True for food and drugs and the electrical code.

Since people have been discussing Bluesky vocab... #avgeek here is going with Flutter and flaps. Period. That's it, that's the flap.
No, we should definitely *not* call them "skeets"

The logo is a butterfly, ergo this place is "Flutter"

We cannot in good conscience call them anything but "flaps"

Oh. My. God.

Vinay Prasad & colleagues run a project called “Sensible Medicine” & they are urging US doctors to embrace RFK Jr.

People, do not—I repeat, do not—Obey in Advance.

We need to RESIST RFK Jr’s vile AIDS denialism, his dangerous anti-vaxx activism, & his whacky conspiracy nonsense.

This will be the legacy of doctors who sanewashed RFK. Nothing they did before or after will matter. They’ll forever be known as the docs who helped make this happen. They’ll be remembered for this and nothing else.
