I don’t think everyone realizes how bad things are for US science:
For the fiscal year that just ended, the Trump regime withheld $1.4 billion from the National Science Foundation’s research budget, which is about 1/5 of its primary research budget.

National Science Foundation Diverted $1.4 Billion in Science Funds Mandated by Congress (Gift Article)
The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

@lofgren.house.gov has called out Eric Jones, candidate for congress in CA-04, saying that he misrepresented Rep Mike Thompson’s record.
👍🏼👍🏼 for Rep Lofgren!
Our legislators should recognize, as perhaps Rep Lofgren has, that Jones isn't someone who will work with them in an honest and fair manner.

ICYMI: Varning för klotformade brandfarliga glasvaser
Varning för klotformade brandfarliga glasvaser
Vi hade en liten incident hemma, där en vattenfylld vas för snittblommor bränt spår i köksbordet när vi inte var hemma. Tack och lov låg inga tidningar eller mer brännbart på bordet, men författarkollegan Roger Löfgren (aktuell med romanen Skymningsläge), som är brottsplatstekniker, konstaterar att han varit på sådana brandunersökningar. Så se upp med vad ni har stående i solen nu när den står lägre och letar sig in i huset.
