Glad to see this story right up top on the NYT page today -- NIH is paying out multiple years of funding to existing grants in an explicit effort to AVOID funding new grants.
Clear as day that destroying science is an explicit goal of the federal government.

I’ve never had a moment of life without animals.
This kitten that just came walking up to us last October, most likely left in the neighborhood thinking some dumbass (yes obviously us) will take care of it: is the biggest asshole I have ever known. But boy is he pretty.

Well now, would you look at that?

ICE has no jurisdiction on Indian reservations. So, as Natives of the north, what’s to lose by bringing in the Spayola (Oglala for people of the south)? Nothing. Fuck ICE. Let’s flex our sovereignty. If anything, you’ll get good menudo and a good fight. It’s been a while since we had a good fight.
