"The [FDA] agency has removed pages which provide guidance to medical researchers on conducting medical trials with representative numbers of men and women and ethnic and/or racial minority groups.

Vote suppression cost Kamala Harris no less than 3,565,000 votes. Harris would have topped Trump’s official total by 1.2 million. The 2.3% suppression factor I’ve calculated undoubtedly cost Harris the states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Georgia. If not for the wholesale attack on votes and voters, Harris would have won the election with 286 Electoral votes.

I decided to get an account on one of the larger servers, as an experiment and fallback. But I'm still mostly on my other accounts:

I was a working professional astronomer in the 1990s-2000s.

I wrote for Free Software Magazine from 2004-2012 (or so).

Since about 2010, I've been working on a free culture open-movie sci-fi animated "series" project, called "Lunatics!", and after all that time, finally have a pilot episode in 2025!

Our world is built on the premise of an un-changing climate... it's not built for loss after loss. There's no way to *insure* against accelerating disasters (see: panicked insurance companies). Some will lose everything. All of us are already being impacted.

Everything has to change. #ClimateCrisis #PalisadesFire

Don't be so hard on yourself. You're doing great, life's just really hard at times.
