Musk’s anti-Fauci tweet is my breaking point; leaving the other app behind so might as well do an #introduction!
I’m an Associate Professor of #Immunology at the #UniversityofWashington in Seattle. My lab studies programmed cell death in the context of cancer, infection and autoimmunity. Check out OberstLab.org for more info.
Outside the lab, I spend as much time as I can outdoors: Biking, rock climbing, hiking and #birding with my wife and our Irish Water Spaniel Rufus. What a good boy!
One of my favorite truisms. The six stages of debugging:
1. That can’t happen.
2. That doesn’t happen on my machine.
3. That shouldn’t happen.
4. Why does that happen?
5. Oh, I see.
6. How did that ever work?
It’s for actions and statements like this that I will never use Twitter, buy a Tesla, or ride on a SpaceX rocket while Elon Musk is in charge. https://www.axios.com/2022/12/11/lawmakers-ract-musk-prosecute-fauci
From 2015-19, #DCS investigated the family lives of 1 of every 3 Black children in #Maricopa County, #Arizona according to a ProPublica/NBC News analysis.
A recent study projected that by the time Black children in Maricopa turn 18, there’s a 63% chance they'll see their parents investigated by DCS, the highest rate among the 20 largest US counties.
Put another way, more Black children in metro #Phoenix will go through a child maltreatment investigation than won’t.

I don't often post for Follow Friday but today is Genocide Prevention Day, so I suggest
Their posts humanise the horrible numbers that accompany the holocaust. In our world, where people have to be reminded of the true horror of what genocide is, and how it has its seed in a corrosive nationalism that dehumanises the Other - it is important to see the faces of the mothers, fathers, children . . .

OMFG I had a super fun and intense conversation with the one and only @taylorlorenz (current reigning queen of this website) about the general insanity of all online discourse. I LOVED THIS CONVERSATION and I think you will too! (and yes, we DO talk about Mastodon!) https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Gl60QGrUjY5cbHMJMydrP?si=fcuqFMzdQLajUx6Hx7fY0Q https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/you-cant-cancel-taylor-lorenz/id1650596614?i=1000589372706
