Not to have ideology, not to have funding of research be left to whimsical venture capitalism, to show support for inclusivity and knowledge progress on fronts that benefit more than one class, to show support for young scientists (who are A METRIC FUCKTON MORE DIVERSE than old scientists, which is a good thing in…

“these people” = some organisers but not most of us. It was political and it’s pretty much just some old head-in-sand white guys who deny that. Those of us who actually have skin in this game marched for it. It’s not nebulous if you’re a scientist; the issues are very real, very personal and very global.

An old classic:

Props to everyone participating in this march BUT the fact that we have to have this is an embarrassment.

I saw three women wearing shirts that said “Steminists”, it made my day.

I used to work for a chain hotel and the demands people made were ridiculous. This isn’t the Waldorf-Astoria. You’re paying $70 a night. Here’s your muffin and orange juice. Sorry we don’t have room service or a bell boy.

CHECK YOUR FUCKING STROLLER MOMMY!

The macho posturing wastes everyone’s time.

I like how he started shit because a baby was ... not injured? and then said he didn’t want to make a big deal of it... while talking to a fucking news crew. Yeah okay broseph, you’re a real hero

What’s wrong with the airlines is that they know that most Americans buy tickets based on cost alone without even looking at the name of the airline, and knowing that for many routes, there simply aren’t many options. And knowledge that even if they fail, they’ll either be bailed out of simply bought outright by…

Friendly reminder to fly Virgin America, Alaska, or JetBlue

Honestly though, babies should be stored with the luggage or something.

The entire Trump family is a fraud full of narcissistic grifters.

How is it possible that a lifelong grifter with zero qualifications, an indefensible platform, and multiple on-the-campaign-trail gaffes can be elected president? Somehow that lying piece of shit convinced millions that he was the better choice. $1 million a week is nothing compared to the shit heap he’s trying to…

Fuck Ivanka! She is just. as. bad. as. her. father.

It turns out, and it was a huge surprise to most Americans as well, that many of the practices that make our form of government work are not set in law but rather depend on a shared belief in fairness and equity. We were not set up to protect ourselves from a family of grifters. That’s why the President (and VP) are…

How is it even permissible for her to choose to stay in NYC if it costs tax payers 1 million a week? All that money could be going to health care, immigration, the hungry, it could do a lot of good in NY.

Melania is straight out of the Trump myth-making machine, just like every other Trump. His daughter is a “brilliant confident successful business wizard” (runs a knock-off clothes, shoes and handbag company daddy paid for). His sons are “successful executives” (mouth-breathing cretins given easy cushy jobs courtesy of…

Maybe you’d understand if it was your bodily autonomy on the line.
