USamericans: Stand up for Science this Friday!

STAND UP FOR SCIENCE

STAND UP FOR SCIENCE

March 7, 2025. Washington DC and nationwide. Because science is for everyone.

There are a LOT of protests occurring in rapid succession recently, nationwide. Friday will be one close to my heart: stand up for science.

Among the many, many actions performed by the current US political administration is the dismantling and censorship of scientific institutions. I've already posted about some of these actions. If you're anywhere near as distraught as I am, this is an opportunity to show support. If you're queer, as most of my followers are, this dramatically affects you- most scientific censorship is occurring around queer research topics.

There will be events across the country: the federal capital, every state capital, and many, many local events. If you're a university student, or have a university nearby, they are most likely hosting an event.

My in person reach is fairly limited. I'll be attending my university's rally in a fairly isolated college town, and I'm not an organizer or anything.

What does matter, however, is numbers nationwide. Americans need to show that they support our scientific institutions: the ones that keep us healthy, keep our water clean, fuel our wonder for the cosmos, and so, so much more. If I can persuade at least a couple of you to make a showing with my online reach, then I'll have accomplished my goal.

Thank you to everyone in the wonderful community I've curated here <3

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.
