Elementary math time! More angleg action 🩵! In 4th grade, the students in my group had the idea of using the anglegs to confirm if some angles in polygons (particularly irregular polygons with 5 or more sides) were acute or obtuse. Such ingenuity!

Green anglegs are used to form an acute angle to match the angle inside an irregular pentagon.

Green anglegs are used to form an obstuse angle to match the angle inside an irregular pentagon.

Elementary math time! Last week, 4th grade students were making sense of angles. All the problems present angles as static images. Students were making sense of what an angle is and how to measure it. I brought in Anglegs to support their thinking and understanding - it was wonderful!

There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity. They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability. My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

This line graph illustrates the percentage change in agency staff levels from the previous year for nine major U.S. federal scientific and health organizations between the fiscal years 2016 and 2025. The agencies tracked include the CDC, Department of Energy, EPA, FDA, NASA, NIH, NIST, NOAA, and NSF. For the majority of the timeline between 2016 and 2023, the agencies show relatively stable fluctuations, generally staying within a range of +5% to -5% change per year. However, there is a dramatic and uniform plummet starting in the 2024–25 period. Every agency depicted shows a sharp downward trajectory, with staffing losses ranging from approximately -15% to over -25%. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) shows the most significant decline, dropping to roughly -26%, while the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shows the least severe but still substantial drop at approximately -15%.

Somebody could formulate this thought better than me, but notice how the right uses the idea of maternal protection to dismantle public health infrastructure, but disparages the women protecting their kids from ICE gangs.
