Stand up universities and science:
"For people outside higher education, this is a moment to speak publicly about why universities matter. They promote public health, economic growth and national security....They are an unmatched, if imperfect, engine of upward mobility"

This is so sad. 
And I can see no end to the ongoing tragedy...

Whether they hop around the prairie, dabble in wetlands, flit through forests, or forage along the shore, birds are suffering rapid population declines across the United States.
That’s the finding from the latest State of the Birds report, a status check on the country’s avian life published every few years by a coalition of science and conservation groups. The 2025 report shows that birds across most habitats have suffered major losses since 1970. Grassland and aridland species have been dealt the heaviest blow: both groups lost more than 40% of their total populations over that period.
What’s more, the trends for many habitat groups have gotten worse. Even waterfowl, which had previously been a conservation bright spot amid the alarming declines, have seen their numbers drop since the last edition of the report. Overall, around one-third of U.S. birds, or 229 species, are of high or moderate conservation concern, according to the report — dealing with low population levels, declining trends, or other threats that call for conservation action to step up.

Once in a while I find a truly fascinating video like this one and I just sit there in silence, watching insects launching themselves into the air and flying away in slow motion.

Dutch scientists get the McCarthyist email from US government, and are advised NOT to respond.
Trying to Zoom/Email to USGS colleagues one says:
“The censorship is insane. It’s like you’re communicating with Soviet scientists. I’ve never seen anything like it with international colleagues.”
QT @ryanjess77 but also interesting for Anglophones.
#Trump heeft het ook gemunt op wetenschapsinstituten als de National Institutes of Health. Eerder sneed de regering in beurzen voor onderzoek naar de gezondheid van de lhbti-gemeenschap. In de afgelopen weken zijn miljoenen dollars aan beurzen voor vaccinatieprogramma’s en onderzoek ingetrokken. Daarmee loopt onder meer onderzoek naar mRNA-vaccins gevaar, de technologie achter de vaccins die de coronapandemie indamden. #health #science #protest

Brain drain in the United States?
Some scientists in the United States say that they are considering leaving the country in the wake of widespread disruption to research brought in by the current administration.
“Australia must double down on getting a seat at the table to access the world’s largest research fund, Horizon Europe”

Honderden medewerkers van wetenschapsinstituten zijn ontslagen en de angst leeft dat er meer zullen volgen. Onderzoeksfondsen worden stopgezet, openbare dataservers gaan tijdelijk offline en wetenschappers mogen geen buitenlandse reizen meer maken, tenzij het "kritieke missies" zijn. Wat dat precies betekent, weet niemand. #science #protest #trump #musk
