I think letting SNAP recipients have hot rotisserie chicken is good, actually.
They are really trying to make it impossible to say, "Well, all this hasn't affected my daily life."
Unhinged response from USDA, basically saying “it doesn’t matter if we take away food from hungry children because they can get other help” 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Of all the harm this administration has done to US science, today's proposed changes to the way federal grants are awarded and administered is the most damaging yet.
The text of the federal register document is impenetrably tedious by design, so here's an excellent summary of what it says.
TWO grants have gone out this year from the NSF Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences— 2! An average of 797 per yeae were granted in previous years.

I am so shocked and saddened by this news. Raúl Pacheco-Vega was such a generous and kind person, supporting and offering his wisdom to so many people, far and near. This is just awful. Que descanse en paz.

This is awful. I had a bad feeling about this. I have been thinking about Raúl all day.

Receiving these kinds of emails never gets old. I provide public goods to fellow academics, students and society in general largely because I strive to create a better, more humane and human academic environment.This is from a few years ago. To this day, I keep getting these emails. Really happy.

This is quite a response to data showing that the number of children receiving food assistance has plummeted since the deepest SNAP cuts in history were signed into law last summer. www.propublica.org/article/snap...
The Trump administration is about to allow swine and poultry processing plants to vastly speed up their lines. That will make the companies more money while leading to far more worker injuries and food illness outbreaks. newrepublic.com/article/2102...

But not all directorates are getting grants out the door. SBE is still stuck at 2 (two) new grants and STEM Education isn't much further along.

The industry spent big to get faster line speeds. Experts say it will increase injuries to workers and make the food you eat less safe.
It’s telling that Alabama took 14 years to implement Brown (you MUST desegregate) and < 14 days to implement Callais (you CAN eliminate Black districts if you call them Democratic, but you don’t HAVE to).

Buen camino, profe Raúl Pacheco Vega. Fuiste y serás siempre el investigador más chido.
