I’m watching parliament’s women and equalities committee grill Baroness Falkner and the EHRC so you don’t have to, follow along with this thread for a summary of what’s said

Folks in the US: fight harder than you have ever fought for science - and then some. 🔭☄️ Anything less than that will be the beginning of the end of science in America. See e.g. @planetarysociety.bsky.social's resources for combating NASA cuts:

NASA science faces record cuts. Take action to stop it—we'll show you how.

Unexpected full page in today's Observer on yesterday's protests and it doesn't interview a single GC for 'balance'
United, undeterred and unafraid, trans people rally over court ruling
Thousands gather in London’s Parliament Square to protest at judges’ decision

LEFT Crowds gather outside Parliament in a huge show of unity and solidarity.
After last week’s supreme court decision, activists had been worried trans people might become fearful of going out in public in case they were abused.

They weren’t afraid in London yesterday. Thousands of trans and nonbinary people thronged Parliament Square, alongside families and supporters waving baby blue, white and pink flags to demonstrate their anger at the judges’ ruling.

The numbers seemed to take the organisers and police by surprise. Protesters from a hastily assembled coalition of 24 groups gathered in a ring against the barriers surrounding the grass and began speeches. But after the roads became clogged with people, a woman wearing a “Nobody knows I’m a lesbian” top ran across with her dog and soon the square was full. “It’s one hell of a turnout and there is a really strong sense of unity and solidarity,” said Jamie Strudwick, one of the organisers. “I think it’s impossible to compare it – it’s like nothing I’ve ever seen before.”

"The rally in central London is estimated by organisers to have attracted 20,000 demonstrators, while thousands more gathered in towns and cities up and down the country for dozens of other protests, with more planned in the coming days." www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

The UK supreme court just single-handedly overturned most trans rights in the UK today. Very disturbingly, the ruling also opens a clear pathway for TERFs to completely push trans people out of public life. This one ruling pushes trans rights in the UK back at least 25 years. It's horrible

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

We are alarmed by the Administration’s actions to freeze science funding and eliminate DEI efforts and climate change initiatives, which go against AGU’s mission and harms our members. We must unite to address these changes, beginning by hearing from you. Read more: buff.ly/4hm8r4e

Happening on Xmas Eve: Parker Solar Probe's first-ever closest approach to the Sun, at a distance of only 9.86 solar radii, is scheduled for ~11:45 UT on Dec 24, 2024. This animation shows the trajectory of Parker's Encounter 22 projected onto the solar equatorial plane ☀️🛰️ #heliophysics #parker

Presented the studies that me and my PhD student Harry Lewis have been doing assessing the specific plasma physical processes responsible for dissipating turbulent energy in collisionless plasmas yesterday at #AGU24! Lots of fantastic discussions with everyone afterward!

Kicking off this Bluesky thing with a fresh new paper! We analysed and modelled a CME that impacted four spacecraft spread out between ~0.4 and 1 au from the Sun—we investigated radial evolution and whether measurements at an inner probe improve predictions at an outer one: doi.org/10.1093/mnra...
