Hello Bluesky! I love art, science, and science fiction. I get a bit obsessive about worldbuilding
I have a knack for taking on excessively large projects for myself, but I do love them and finding new ways to be curious about the world along the way

Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause."
They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
