I’ll tell you this. A favorite campus dining spot closed last semester, with almost no notice. It’s been replaced by a fully automated kiosk. The kids are pissed. Asking all the right questions about labor and human contact and sociality. Some of the kids are alright.

New study finds that a short game teaching players how to spot manipulation techniques common in vaccine misinformation made them better at recognizing false claims and more cautious about what they shared online. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨BREAKING NEWS! 🚨 🚀 the Voyager Declaration has LAUNCHED. NASA employees join a growing rebellion against Trump’s anti-science, anti-American agenda. 🧵(1/4)

A faux newspaper front page with a space shuttle launching into a blue sky. A burnt paper overlay reads “THE VOYAGER DECLARATION HAS LAUNCHED!” Below, bold text says “NASA JOINS THE RESISTANCE,” and a subhead reads: “NASA scientists join a growing rebellion against Trump’s science cuts.” At the bottom are the words: DISSENT, BRAVERY, RESISTANCE.

Climate policy that ignores mental health is incomplete. Extreme heat drives anxiety, worsens depression, and puts the most vulnerable at risk—yet barely gets a mention in preparedness plans. www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

This is a venn diagram showing how 69 Trump actions map onto domains covering: undermining democratic institutions; suppressing dissent and media; dismantling social protections; attacking science and education; destabilising the global order.
