City of Encinitas with some “surprising” data:

Gutted to be losing people like Nell Greenfieldboyce, Joe Shapiro, and Don Gonyea -- all of whom I count as friends and also simply unparalleled journalists.

At least 18 NPR journalists have accepted buyouts and another 10 have been laid off as the public media network attempts to save money and reorganize the newsroom.

Lenacapavir, almost 100% effective at preventing HIV, is priced by Gilead at $28,200 and inaccessible to many in low-income countries plagued by the disease.

I walked to Cardiff today, bringing my curiosity (and smiling and waving) to the Stand Up For Science Rally there.
Is it weird to need to "stand up for science"? Are there "stand up for math" rallies?
It was on my mind to ask, "what does science mean to you?"
I would love to have that conversation

I’ve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldn’t post so much about COVID19 vaccines because it’s “divisive”.
I am here to say that I do not give a damn what is popular.
I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.
