Over 2,500 #NoKings protests today! Incredible! That goes to speak to how strongly Americans are opposed to the fascist policies of Tyrant #Trump!

Decline of privately-funded science journalism in the age of Trump.
https://undark.org/2025/10/15/science-journalism-funders-trump/
"Science journalism has been fragile for many years now: Outlets like National Geographic and Wired have undergone layoffs. Others, like Sapiens, have shuttered. The environmental publication Hakai Magazine shut down last year when its funder, the Tula Foundation, withdrew its support to focus on research efforts, for example (the magazine has since joined forces with bioGraphic). A few years earlier, the U.K.’s Wellcome Trust pulled the plug on its long-form digital science magazine Mosaic."

Frogs. And dinosaurs. And inflatable bananas... What's not to like?
As America is an #IronyFreeZone, you can tell an authoritarian government has gone too far when they start "weaponising the military."
(Though "weapons free" has a different meaning as a NATO brevity code than it does in a civilian context).
