My removal from #nasa #nyc continued afoot.
I haven’t said much of it here — but my competitive grant proposals (nasa scientists get funded this way since full cost accounting hit in 2004) have been chosen, but not funded.
There is no grant money to distribute. Folks in the know have seen that - ROSES, the acronym for research opportunities in science, does not have a 2025 call and the 2024 chosen post January 2025 don’t have money getting distributed.
If I cannot get proposals funded I will be in the same situation as every other soft money researcher.
So the soft RIF is coming for me and 1000’s of others.

I don't think we should always have to include the "upswing" in struggles we share
When you're in the shit of it & all you hear is upswing, you can feel more alone—that you need to "suck it up/be positive." And I find that toxic
Still, I have BIG feelings about sharing my suck with so little upswing
...cause I'm a hypocritical asshole when it comes to myself🙃

#MastodonPoll: best response to "Iran can never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon"? (pick one)
1. "That's why we should have stuck with the JCPOA, which Obama negotiated and Trump blew up. Bombing Iran makes them more likely to seek a nuclear weapon." (redirect)
2. "Actually, they can and should be allowed and even encouraged to have a nuclear weapon." (contradict)
3. "Who are we to allow or disallow Iran from seeking a nuclear weapon?" (disclaim responsibility)
4. "Iran wouldn't have been able to complete a nuclear weapon anyways." (argue mootness)
5. "Do you remember nothing from the run-up to the Iraq War?" (appeal to history)
