An absolute tragedy of the current admin. The Adolescent Trials Network has been terminated. The ATN has helped an uncountable number of people over the 20+ years it has been instated, myself included. Nobody voted for this. www.linkedin.com/posts/lisa-h...

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

For the 1st time in a decade, a child has died of #measles -- a preventable disease. The current outbreak is mainly among unvaccinated school-aged kids. The MMR vaccine prevents infection: 1 dose: ~93% effective 2 doses: ~97% effective Please: Get vaccinated, and your loved ones, too.
One death from a preventable disease is one too many.

I’m thinking about federal income tax. If the federal government isn’t meeting its obligations why should we? Specifically, I’d love to see states get the money first and hold it in trust pending litigation. I want to pay my taxes but not to a government that doesn’t respect the constitution.

Under capitalism, money is God. The old guard of social media companies will always trade you for more capital, no matter the cost -- these past few weeks prove that. The only way to change these companies to work for us, is to hurt them where it counts. Join me in getting off these apps for good.

PLEASE READ ATTENTIVELY! From an employee at OPM to HR. This person used a burner account so she/he wouldn't face repercussions after sounding the alarm. Make no mistake peeps, this only happens with authoritarian regimes. FOTUS is taking over the Federal Civil Service. Thank you whoever you are.

It would be prudent if you have the time and resources to immediately start downloading any data and information you can from federal websites. Several data sources have gone dark already, which means that those data only live on someones computer for the time being. #AcademicSky

Dear fellow scientists, Go talk to the press about what is going on. Talk to local news about how it will impact jobs. Be specific, but don't pity yourself. Instead focus on how your own situation affects local jobs, the national economy, beating the growing scientific race with China. Suggestions:

Just learned that diversity supplements are gone. This is such a pathetic step backward. Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to materially support my fellow post-docs at a time like this? #DEI #Academicsky

It felt really good to delete Xitter today. It's not much but it's one tiny way I can start to fight back. Would love to hear about other ways people are trying to take back a little agency in their lives.

❕First pub from my dissertation!❕ Ever wonder what drives engagement and if that engagement really leads to changes in health? We used causal mediation to see which participants engaged more or less, and whether that engagement changed their health outcomes. www.jmir.org/2025/1/e57619 #AcademicSky
