You breathe too hard on Shai and he's on the free throw line. Meanwhile Steph did not get ONE call on any of these CLEAR fouls 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think the NIH/NCI should create its own FREE open access journal and 1) Publish all NIH funded research 2) Pay reviewers ($ or some sort of credit system) Better quality reviews, research transparency (& less profit for publishing companies/predatory journals).

Very interesting stance.
This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.

Watch this clip of Bernie Sanders, Chris Van Hollen, and Peter Welch calling on their colleagues to stop arms sales to Israel — a historical visual that will paint the legacy of every one of their colleagues who votes against US & international law today:
Sen. Bernie Sanders
This means that Joe Biden is lobbying senators to vote against resolutions led by Bernie Sanders — who helped Biden win at all in 2020, and who, against the will of some of his most faithful supporters, worked to help the Democratic ticket in 2024 without exercising leverage
