@luckytran Their punishment when thrown out of office must be immediate and overwhelmingly severe and above all, permanent.

@heafnerj @luckytran I can’t think of anything fitting for the amount of damage that’s been done.

@luckytran The slide has been so sad to watch. Their director resigned in protest last spring, if memory serves, and they've got a nonscientist interim now. I seem to remember a surprise relocation also, and some terrible alterations to peer review?
I was there for a brief fellowship in 2008/9 and was just so impressed by everything about the place -- the program officers and other staff I met were curious, dedicated, collegial people who wanted to make their fields better.

@luckytran took me some time to figure the FY in file name is Fiscal Year... Not Fck You 🫣 which sounds fitting too

@luckytran The NSF 2027 budget request bottom line numbers are awful.
Non-capital-equipment research grants down almost 60% from 2025. Combined discretionary funding down 55%. Overall funding down 43% (after a brand new $900m line item for an Antarctic research vessel).
And this isn't the actual final funding. This is the *ask*.
Carnage.

@luckytran It is still very bewildering to read the term "woke" and anti-woke phrasing in a document like this. But I guess that's the times we're living in now. (Not that I want to sit back and accept that, though.)

@T2R good, yay. I am too, I could do more, but it's hard to get traction enough to be effective, right? @luckytran

@draNgNon @luckytran especially in a red state yes. All of
