Late Wednesday night, an email went out to members of the AFGE Local 3403 union representing employees at NSF collecting signatures for the so-called Alexandria Declaration, highlighting “catastrophic changes” to the agency “and the scientific enterprise of the United States over the last 6 months.”
“At this critical moment in our shared history, we hope to catalyze a level of public awareness and subsequent action that will preserve NSF and the values it upholds,” the email reads, noting that the effort was inspired by the Bethesda Declaration.
I want Bethesda to make a declaration that they’ll hire 100 new people to work on fallout 5.
Beyond that joke, I don’t really have a lot of hope for science in America’s future.
Or… americas future. Anyone who can get out will and we will just be poor and somehow paying $3000 for a studio apartment.
