In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders
SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

They’re stealing from us. They are stealing from us and we have to put a stop to this. This cannot stand.

This is a dramatic understatement of what UPenn agree to. They are also banning any and all Title IX protections for trans students and agreeing that trans people don't actually exist.

The National Climate Assessment sites all went dark today after the Trump administration announced in April that it would allow the main contract supporting the report to expire. With no backup plan for hosting the reports elsewhere, it appears they have just been allowed to disappear.

It's only Monday of the following week and... ❌ Entire 'proposed' climate budget zeroed out for FY26 in the DoC's budget justification for NOAA. ❌ The congressionally mandated (and paid with your taxpayer dollars) National Climate Assessment has just been removed from their website host entirely.

Holy shit. I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say they’re trying to kill us all. “The Environmental Protection Agency plans to eliminate its scientific research arm, firing as many as 1,155 chemists, biologists, toxicologists and other scientists”

More than 1,000 chemists, biologists and other scientists could be laid off under a plan to dismantle the Office of Research and Development.

A progressively warmer day of field work - started with ice too thick to get through, ended covered in mud

“If the freeze is not stopped, I might lose my house." Some NSF-funded postdocs are having trouble paying rent and credit card bills because their salaries were paused this week, even though the federal funding freeze memo was rescinded. www.statnews.com/2025/01/30/t...

Moving over to bluesky from twitter/x! I'm a PhD student studying aquatic biogeochemistry, with a background in geography - my research focuses on riverine/aquatic carbon cycles and factors that influence/mediate them. In my free time I badly play a variety of sports (latest: roller derby!)
