Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

Bray is a historian at Rutgers who received death threats after landing on Turning Points USA's Professor Watchlist. As a result, he announced he was moving to Europe. And then this happened.

This kind of harassment and abuse of scholars is Charlie Kirk's legacy and it's only getting worse.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Take it easy! I'm unlikely to stream tonight -- lots of writing to catch up on. See you tomorrow!

We usually send interviews to a transcription service (where you can specify a human transcriber), but today for the first time I was told we can do it for "free." I don't think the autogenerated output from Zoom compares to a human who understands what they're hearing, but you get what you pay for.

Today is World Octopus Day! I have always been a fan, well before I was a writer. I got to see this vessel in person back in my archeologist days.

LITTLE NIGHTMARES: DESCENT RO NOWHERE #1 releases today.

This is a book we have been working on for years. I am very proud of it and hope it offers a tiny bit more insight into the mysteries of The Counties.

I thought something seemed off about the the image posted below: it's a photo that's been edited and colorized by AI. Please don't do that.
