It occurs to me that not everyone knows how to get to Sugarbush, the ski resort JD Vance is visiting. It’s a great mountain, but even if you don’t ski, it’s a beautiful drive to get there, especially on a clear day like tomorrow. You can get directions here. You’re welcome!

I would love to know if the other half of our population, that is okay with Russia invading Ukraine, thinks it is okay for North Korea to forcibly take South Korea. Or is that South Korea’s problem to handle? I am Korean-American and still have family there.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

I have worked with many untenured staff scientists & PIs at NIH. They are incredible colleagues who chose science in public service over more lucrative careers. Devaluing their commitment & professionalism is among the most cruel aspects of the DOGE purge www.science.org/content/arti...

Actually… these bullying tactics are exactly what a lot of immigrants and non-white Americans grow up with since forever. We are judged against an English palate of standards: how we look, sound, eat, wear, act. It is exhausting and degrading.
