I have written a short statement responding to mass firings today of #NOAA / National Weather Service (#NWS) staff (which were concentrated among recent hires as well as highly experienced staff who had recently been promoted). Please see below screenshot & below for full text.

This is devastating news. Today's reported layoffs at the NWS will impact our ability to keep Americans safe from extreme weather. These forecasters are essential frontline workers who save lives during hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods. Cutting these meteorologists isn't just…

This morning, "extremely critical" wildfire risk designation--the highest level--has been expanded by NOAA SPC to include portions of San Diego County as well as much of LA/Ventura counties. Very strong winds & *extremely* low humidity w/record dry fuels expected. #CAwx #CAfire

My parents slept early and didn't even know the Eaton Fire started last night when I called to tell them to evacuate at midnight. Thank you to the many folks who checked in last night knowing that my parents live in the foothills. Please check on your people and community!

This is bad actually and makes it even harder for working class people to get into academia

With another semester ending, here's your annual reminder that teaching evaluations systemically disadvantage women. Even when controlling for grades and other factors, students (esp. males) consistently give female professors lower scores. This can have serious ramifications.🧵

Today, I got this email telling me his son died from hunger in Gaza. Khalil will not be counted among the 10,000 children killed through bombings, but just as dead. May God rest his soul.

Being part of the BayPass pilot allowed me to me get rid of my car & move to a nicer place & improved my mental health. I'm out of my house way more often because I'm not worried about the cost of getting anywhere. Just wanted to say I think every student should be given one 🫡

I left Gaza yesturday. My heart and my soul are still there with my patients. I remember their names and their wounds. I will fight until they receive the treatment they need and the justice they deserve. My heart is broken in ways I never knew was possible.

We will never be the same. We will never forget this. I will never ever ever ever forget the people who ignored this. I will never be the same.

I went looking back through the posts of journalists from Gaza before this latest bombardment and felt deeply bereft and angry. Motaz Azaiza used to capture beautiful portraits, showcasing the beauty of Gaza and the Palestinian people. Now he captures their genocide.

watching Palestinians whose Twitter accounts I have followed for years - both regular citizens and journalists - go from posts of desperation about the current hell in Gaza to silence and then the announcement of their deaths is a modern horror I don't really have the words for

Reminder that you probably have met more students than you think that have are not in stable housing conditions.

Offering this up again, but broader. If anyone knows of any students looking for some mentorship/check-ins throughout the fall/help with applications of any sort, feel free to send them my way!

I’m quite used to the cruelty students can face when they apply for a US visa but this one broke me. We offered admission to a stellar, talented & hardworking student. After months of work and hundreds of dollars, an embassy officer saw him for 5 mins & said no. why? …

Someone I know met a woman who's a Nobel-prize winning biologist and she said "I see you are wearing make-up, that already tells me that you're not focussed and committed enough to make it in science".

I had coffee and caught up with the PhD student (now postdoc) that mentored me for 3 years as an undergrad. It just really reminded me how critical and beautiful it was to have women mentors who understood my experiences in academia, even if just to not feel alone (~:
