If you put some ink on a leaf, you obtain a ink propelled boat, using the Marangoni effect. The ink has a lower surface tension than water and its flow provides thrust to push the boat forward.

The Trump administration will continue to shut down science they don't like, and lie about it to Congress and the public.

The coast of California is experiencing the intense effects of a super El Niño compounding the impacts of climate change, all while FEMA distances itself from its critical mission. @ucsshana.bsky.social breaks it down in her new blog:
As El Niño and Climate Change Collide on California Coast, FEMA Says You're On Your Own
California has been preparing but will need federal support.

A little thread: Science is defiantly anti-fascist because it pursues truth, is necessarily collaborative, and relies on open communication. And because its falsifiability is incompatible with the cultism, faith-based belief systems, disinformation, and propaganda of Christian nationalism.

This is so important & it’s why those of us who do basic research are so discouraged by what’s happening at NIH & NSF the past 2 yrs

From a pancreatic cancer researcher in my circle

Lately, we have been seeing so many miracles in cancer treatment. We celebrate. That is because we had a great infrastructure that operated efficiently.

I don’t want to live in a time when these wins are far off in the rear view mirror.

#DangerSeason 2026 was hot and deadly. Will the US be ready for 2027 Super El Niño-charged #KillerHeat? In my newest blog I talk about the hottest summer on record, what's to come, why we need to prepare *now* to keep people safe.

Science = do the work, show the receipts, let strangers try to break it.

Pseudoscience = make it up, scare people, let the uninformed share it.

One requires effort and proof. The other requires ignorance and an audience.
