       Ohioans!  Please call your representatives about this: Senate Bill 83 is the Republican Party's latest attempt to turn Ohio educators into handpuppets for their culture-war ideas. Obvious these clowns want to ban DEI. It dictates straight-up Florida/Hungary/USSR-style seizure of curricula, hiring, and speech at public colleges. It labels climate change as a teach-both-sides "controversy". The syllabus-reporting requirement is obviously teeing up private education for the same treatment later.

       Recommended ways for a bored millionaire to spend $250k and walk away with good science/exploration conversation starter material:a) Visit your local university's giving office and write a checkb) Say it's for a scientist to buy a big iconic piece of equipmentc) The scientist will buy the equipment and give you REALLY NEAT, unique, hands-on tours of it. d) No you can't be locked inside the equipment with four days' worth of oxygen, please stop asking

       @UlrikeHahn When I joined Mastodon it was a struggle to find people to follow.  (Still is!) When I joined Bluesky it was easy.  That's it, 100%.
