In the coming days I am publishing a researched deep dive of Project 2025 & its assault on:
•Public education
•Veterans benefits
•Abortion
•Climate
•Immigration
•Voting Rights
•And more…

My purpose is to take their complex legal jargon and make their threat of fascism clear for everyone to understand—and rebuke.

@mhayesgolding Just picked up On Your Mark. Hopefully sometime this summer…

Excited to be launching this series of graphics today, a project a year in the making with Enable Science.

The Spotlight Science series brings together science, art, and disability, highlighting the amazing science being done by disabled scientists across the UK.

See the full set of graphics here: https://bit.ly/SpotlightSci

Completed with funding from the Royal Society of Chemistry's Inclusion and Diversity Fund.

Spotlight Series: Celebrating disabled scientists with Enable Science

If you can see yourself represented, you can aspire to be it. Disabled scientists are still vastly underrepresented in the sciences. The Spotlight Series is the product of a partnership between Enable Science and Compound Interest. It...

Hey, @mhayesgolding ! Look what my husband found at the library! Haven’t looked through it much yet, but wonder if it will produce done insights…
@geonz @mhayesgolding @k8nowak Oooh! Added to the library list!
@mhayesgolding @edutooters I’ve always said that my art degree helps with design and flow of stuff. But now that you’ve said this, I wonder if that’s true…

The anti-science movement is "organized, it’s well-financed, and it’s politically motivated. It’s doing a lot of damage to the country and to American science and scientists. And now it’s become a lethal force." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/vaccine-scientist-warns-antiscience-conspiracies-have-become-a-deadly-organized-movement/

"Thinking about buying 150 intro calculus textbooks for my high school. Any of you nerds out there have a very strong opinion about what the best book is? Looking for rigor, but also many many diagrams with intuitive geometric arguments. Also good exercises with applications!" [@ dodecahedra@twitter]

I went through this same search last year and always like a good textbook review :)

I'm also more opinionated after a year using various resources and mostly focusing on the AoPS textbook in the end.

What's everyone's favorite?

@dandersod It sounds like an abbrasive may have been used that has messed up your whiteboard finish. I like the approach this guy took to finding a solution: https://www.makerjosh.com/best-way-clean-whiteboards-9-tests/ (Spoiler: the answer is WD-40, off course. It is apparently able to restore the non-stick finish to a degree).

Wondering about the best way to clean whiteboards? So was I! I tested 9 treatments and found the best way to keep whiteboards clean.
