I wrote about how we must stand and fight against the threat of eugenics. Fueled by white nationalism and scientific racism, these beliefs are factually wrong and ethically abhorrent. This fight includes supporting efforts to diversify our workforce & science. To stop now would be a deep betrayal.

Eugenics is on the rise again: human geneticists must take a stand
Scientists must push back against the threat of rising white nationalism and the dangerous and pseudoscientific ideas of eugenics.

Right bluesky. You ready for a long thread? I saw someone justifying queerness as a "natural" thing because we see it in other organisms. I often challenge the rhetoric of there being "queer", "trans", or "gay" animals. But that's because "queerness" needs challenging.

A SIMPLE GUIDE TO PROVIDING USEFUL ALT ON BLUESKY 1/ ALT's sole function on Bluesky is to provide an autonomous & as fully equivalent an experience of an image as possible for the blind/VI & neurodivergent If you can see it & read it, I should be able to feel or hear it without leaving Bluesky
Baby Cat, seated on her haunches on an unmade bed, her right forepaw resting on the back of her human's white skinned left hand.

BC's gazing solemnly at her human with her enormous sage green eyes, a look of determination on her white milk muzzle. BC exudes quiet confidence, but she still wishes there was an Image Description reminder on Bluesky she could enable, so she couldn't possibly forget to add ALT before tweeting.

Baby Cat is an adult deep chocolate colored tan-ticked tabby. All 4 of her legs are tiger striped, as is her tan chest & neck. The stripes on her neck & chest look like necklaces of varying widths & hues, from jet black to milk chocolate.

BC has a tan face with black markings, white whiskers, a white milk muzzle & an irresistibly boopable dusty rose nose. Her back coat is a rich chocolate brown, dappled by golden specks. In a sign of great sincerity, BC's whiskers—like her lynx-tufted ears–are at full alert.

Today is #TransgenderDayOfRemembrance. This year, we remember 350 trans people who were murdered. In the past 15 years, more than 5000 murders are documented, most of them trans women of colour in the Global South. We mourn the dead. We fight like hell for the living.
