Elon & Vivek said white ppl could definitely have jobs in this country. Just not *good* jobs. Not the kind of jobs *they* offer. Y'all can absolutely have jobs. Just..*separate* jobs. Not necessarily *lesser* jobs. Probably totally *equal* *other* jobs. Separate but equal jobs.

@ijbailey Not-woke: “Trans people should enjoy the same robust civil rights protections afforded to any minority group.” Woke: “We must adopt the word Latinx because it is more inclusive of trans and non-binary folks, and resistance to this unwieldy neologism is rooted in transphobia.”

Yes, which is why the people who use “woke” as a slur are all fighting for trans rights. Considering that “Latinx” was an exercise to be inclusive — which is just what happens with words — and it was not demanded by law or forced on to anyone, seems silly to put on this act.

"..only 44 percent of female tenured professors are mothers, while 70 percent of male tenured professors are fathers. And women professors, especially women of color, are still underpaid relative to their male colleagues with similar publication records." https://t.co/MPqcoFc86x

Federal funding is the lifeblood of scientific discovery, and it is imperative that the federal government demand more from the academic institutions that are pushing women out of the sciences.

Curious about what sorts of crazy things cells get up to in the wild? We've found over the past few years cellular slime molds do all sorts of amazing things in complex, naturalistic environments and are looking for experimental and theory postdocs (1/4) https://t.co/2VRGYsm1UE

I will have two postdoc positions and a technical post in my new(ish) lab in UCL. One biased to wet experiments with chemoattractant gradients, and one more based on modelling and maths. But both posts encompassing both. Drop me a line if interested - I'd love to hear from you.
