International students strengthen America—in health, tech, research, and daily life.

Trump’s vow to “aggressively revoke” visas for Chinese students echoes our country's darkest moments: the Chinese Exclusion Act, WWII internment, COVID scapegoating.

Clyde Tombaugh's discovery of Pluto was announced #OTD in 1930. Here it is dashing across his photographic plates, next to an image taken just after closest approach by NASA's New Horizons mission in July 2015. 🧪 🔭 🚀

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

If you can, you should buy an EV right now. Especially one that can provide backup power.

Thats all Rivians, Kias, and Hyundais, the Leaf, the ID4, the Lightning, and a few others. No Teslas or Lucids except the CT. I doubt there are a lot of cybertruck buyers here, though.

I’m having fun going through the archives of old art and finding friends that I lost (sold) long ago.

I think this ship in turbulent seas is fitting for our times.

Jordan Teuscher is an enemy to public ed—the passage of this bill would leave Utah teachers even more exploited than they already are
This is a nasty piece of work.

Utah GOP Rep. Jordan Teuscher just dropped a bill that would completely end the Utah Education Association.

Public employers would be blocked from bargaining with a labor union or entering collecting bargaining contracts.

In an era of hallucinating LLMs that are frankly ‘mostly’ useless for research, I must highlight the amazing value provided by Hasanyone.com. @andrew.diffuse.one this is a huge hit! Most useful AI tool for lit research I have found so far.

Love this graphic from Voices for Utah Children. There is so much good that our state and lawmakers can do for our public schools instead of siphoning off money to send kids to private schools. #utpol

Elevate Strategies out with their post Mortem on Utah’s elections. I do think a lot of stuff in this is very good. Voting for the least bad Republican doesn’t work, we need more voices in primaries for one. A long term year round investment? Starting hyper-local? These guys are serious
