"Do you think it's inappropriate in any way that someone w/ no experience w/ grants for the federal government was making personal judgment calls about what grants to cancel?" an attorney asked.
"Um, no. I don't think it's inappropriate," Cavanaugh said, arguing that he did not need formal education or experience to make informed judgments. 🤔

I just finished #Pluribus and found it a very thoughtful exploration of humanity, loneliness, love, and individualism vs a collective hive mind.
The series asks its audience to consider questions in ways I rarely experience at a time when so many programs feel like more of the same.
I recommend watching and am interested to hear what others think.

I wanted to love "Beautyland" by Marie-Helene Bertino - a neurodiverse protagonist who loves science(!) - but it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
But now I'm 11 chapters into "Circe" by Madeline Miller, which has been a wonderful journey so far. Miller knows her Classics! Highly recommend 📚 #books

Most ppl know me for work in science & policy, but in college, my other major was classical #history & literature.
I view the present moment through this lens, understanding that the world map has always been dynamic. Borders shift, empires rise and fall, societies transform.
Only by studying the humanities - the disciplines so many ppl in power now regularly dismiss - can we hope to learn from the past & chart a more hopeful future.

This is the worst review for my book on Amazon. All things considered, it's not too terrible.
I do hope the reader eventually found my book. https://www.amazon.com/Science-Kissing-What-Lips-Telling/dp/0446559903/ref=sr_1_1?crid=YITNQIK117KX&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bRlJP0iM51WRLdKJzj4prNJ7BTt47neNyVXO7qiysAG9cPAhPWVgl3fZHrdwBGELiCp5p-zbE0qv3b20DlTYEF4XB4EdnCqryXANq4ex91tVhlBS9GHqa_FXZbPyGRObKLLtpDcEIlKp_mcPusOuoWalMi7luWGrBmPOnFsoyxu-5BwQ4q9Fb9wIMQ6vDN5Pv-RcoL2vu-v_X18QzUq44uNszYLF2RNVTHs1x6KNK7Y.ovA5UMsytHhve08pyMA7WIZC5dTj30HPkryEcOHPLRE&dib_tag=se&keywords=the+science+of+kissing&qid=1769007805&sprefix=the+science+of+kissin%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-1#averageCustomerReviewsAnchor #books

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has voted to dissolve after Republicans rescinded $1.1B at President Trump’s behest.
This ends the 58-year-old agency that distributed federal funds to NPR, PBS and more than 1,500 local public radio & television stations. https://apple.news/AXdo2-zPuRCiJSiIVd3DXSg #uspol #news

“You're an interesting species, an interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams & such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we found that makes the emptiness bearable, each other.”
