I wrote an op-ed on the world-class STEM research ecosystem in the United States, and how this ecosystem is now under attack on multiple fronts by the current administration: newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/im-an-awar...

Love the article. Can you do YouTube short video of it for wider distribution? There are an annoying number of people who won’t read and this needs to get to them. Maybe @standupforscience.bsky.social can help with a script / ideas?

You are my teenager’s hero. They made a Magic deck with you and Einstein as the strongest cards. It’s heartbreaking that our country is led by an idiot who hates geniuses.

The only mathematicians the GOP support are the ones helping create their abstract congressional boundaries via gerrymandering.

“the luxury of disengagement is no longer a viable option” It was never really an option, but many in the sciences imagined it was. Welcome to the resistance. We need everyone.

This situation is what motivated me to finally drop X and just switch over to BlueSky. Insane what our admin is doing, and stuff like this needs to get way more publicity. So much respect for Terence here. We need more leaders like him to speak out.

In the "Fermi Paradox" there is the concept of filters that hold back the higher development of life. To that we can now add the Trump idiocracy.
