A blue, gold, and white menorah with blue and white pomegranates on it in front of red and pink poinsettias on a wood table. The menorah is lit for the first night of Hannukah.
It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through.
Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!
I LOVE all your incredible menorahs! Please keep sharing!

I get what @asm.org is trying to do with #ASMicrobe. But elimination of the POMS track means I submitted 3 different session proposals, 3x each, since they’re broadly relevant to all 3 sections. Hopefully the section planners will work together if more than 1 accepts the proposals.
Congratulations to @haidermanzer.bsky.social on being awarded the @bwfund.bsky.social Postdoc Diversity Enrichment Program Award!! So well deserved - we are very proud here in the Zackular Lab!
I wish we could but we don’t have the budget to do that

honestly mostly what these fox graphics that clearly take completely for granted that the good things will be understood by the audience to be bad make me feel is that the gulf between me and the people who watch this is fundamentally insurmountable

Dear Science Journalists,
Please mention when your write-ups covers work that was funded by federal agencies that are now being dismantled, defunded, and censored.
The public needs to know what is being lost, and if you don't tell them in the context of Cool New Science, who will?
