WOW: The College Board erased everything from AP African American history course that Ron DeSantis objected to. This is how White supremacy thrives. The College Board should have held their ground but now they have sacrificed academic freedom to make white nationalists happy

We detected a bloom of the dinoflagellate Karenia mikimotoi in Boothbay Harbor last week and verified its identity by rapid DNA techniques. This is part of the Maine-eDNA project @BigelowLab @MaineEPSCoR #nsffunded #MaineeDNA #nsfepscor

It's unbelievable to hear my Senate Republican colleagues, most of whom are millionaires, complain that unemployed workers getting UI are making too much money. $600 a week is one of the only lifelines keeping millions from going into poverty or losing their homes. #SaveThe600

We aren't good at dealing with intangible entities, and in climate change both causes and effects remain mostly invisible in our daily lives. But comics can make the invisible visible, and tell human stories. bit.ly/2XUgdfF

I'll support and work for any Democrat who wins the nomination, but I'm pulling for Elizabeth Warren. I'd love to see her open a large can of whup-ass on Trump in the debates.

Like Bigelow scientists, CTDs work around the globe to collect vital #ocean data. During fieldwork at @PalmerLTER, this CTD was a key tool for Senior Research Scientists Pete Countway and Paty Matrai, and Senior Research Associate Carlton Rauschenberg. Happy #CTDappreciationday!
