Here's a link to check to make sure your mail-in ballot was accepted and counted. If you live in an area where there are reports of mailboxes being lit on fire, make sure your vote reached its destination. Everyone should check regardless. legalconsumer.com/democracy/…

NEW: Two former Trump White House officials told me they had to show voter data to Trump to get him to release disaster funding to CA wildfire victims. He released it after learning that he had as many GOP supporters in Orange Co. as he did in Iowa. eenews.net/articles/helene-i…

It's that wonderful time of year when I offer extra credit to students for creating memes based on something they learned in CEE 433 Water Technology and Policy. A humor-filled thread, with all credit to my students. Shared with permission. 🧵(1/n)

A young girl didn’t want to slaughter the goat she raised for 4H. The state senator who bought the goat at auction agreed to let it live out its days eating weeds. But sheriff’s deputies drove 500 miles to kill the goat and teach a 9-year-old a lesson. latimes.com/california/story…

My CNN colleagues looked into 50 of the names on a viral MAGA list supposedly showing 14,000 Michigan cases of ballots being cast in the name of dead people. Result: - 37 are dead, no vote cast - 5 are alive and voted - 8 are alive and didn’t vote cnn.com/2020/11/08/tech/mich…

It’s too late to use the mails. Given Supreme Court rulings I urge everyone to now vote in person; early vote or use drop boxes. Protect your health but don’t let the Court and the deliberately crippled Postal Service deprive you of your most precious civil right. Plan your vote.

This is a picture of voter suppression. Why do Americans have to wait in lines this long? This is the line in Suwannee Georgia today to vote.

I've had people tweet at me in the past 24 hours: Did the pandemic playbook really exist? Was it really a clearly marked "playbook"? Would it have helped? Here's the cover, and the table of contents. You decide.

Instead of "Advice for being a woman in Science", can we agree to just have "How to not be an asshole that drives women out of science" course for men? I am sick of all the advice. It puts the work on women how to navigate a shitty system made for and by men.

The Supreme Court has started issuing decisions remotely in order to protect their own safety. One of their first remote decisions was that Wisconsin voters will have to show up in person and risk their lives if they want their votes counted.

If you are a PI at a PUI in proximity to Boston College and would be able to take advantage of a 500 MHz NMR equipped with a cryoprobe, please DM me. We are writing an NSF-MRI for a new NMR and are looking for partners to write collaboration letters. Grant is due Jan. 20!

1/ On Halloween, my family saw NYPD converge on a group of black teenagers in Brooklyn. My wife and our 6-year-old daughter saw an unmarked NYPD car going against traffic *hit one of the boys.* I asked the police about it. They say it didn’t happen.

2 years ago, we reported that employers were putting up job ads older workers couldn't see on FB. Then, we found employers putting up job ads women couldn't see on FB. Experts said it was probably illegal. Last week, we found out the EEOC agrees. propub.li/2mk1hau
