I’m just going to repost this seasonally when I have the wherewithal, because everything we see from mid-November through Christmas is pushing sales like Cyber Monday.
But the demand they create puts Amazon workers at greater risk than usual (already above industry average) for serious injuries.

Re: Prime Week, I want to repost a couple of things, including a story I worked on in 2019, on Amazon injury rates.
I analyzed 2018 data and found major spikes on Cyber Monday and Prime Day, but I kept being afraid of overstating the finding. Screenshot is from revealnews.org/article/behi...

I'm still covering whatever the heck's happening to US federal science funding, especially at NSF and NIH.
Any insider info, insights into long-term impacts or just feeling the weight of all the uncertainty? DMs open. Signal: kvasquez.12

Ugh I was so stressed out that I forgot to tag @kvasquez.bsky.social our amazing policy beat reporter. Talk to her about NSF! And any other government agencies. She covers them all for the magazine- the rest of us are just trying to help out as it’s clearly a job for a team
