I use voyager, so it's more fun to tag em and watch their antics. Always a good laugh when there's multiple Red tags frothing at eachother.

in my mind, I included those datasets in data
But sure! I agree! We need free and open science, worldwide
People need to understand the art of scientific thinking

Seen you about, you've got some good takes, some bad takes, and some absolutely mindbogglingly daft takes.
From what I've seen, you are, in fact, a Shit Poster. And while I've not scrolled through your entire history, I'm fairly confident that you never claimed you weren't a hypocrite.
Fair play.

Yeah. Skimming is standard. I appreciate the effort though!

It ain't much, but it is honest work.

the struggle is real fam

DEI is largely about raising the profiles of minority workers in roles and positions that were both vital to mission success and underpaid/underappreciate-for-promotion relative to the whiter career roles.
Petro's following in the grand tradition of Boomer senior leaders by pulling the ladder up behind her now that she's at the top.

ITT: People who doesn't read the article. These science institutions shouldn't be used for fucking politics.
I wonder if something from the list published in this article has any relation to science or space. Yeah sure, let's go with "DEI and other Inclusivity programs are NECESSARY for space survival". I wonder what's the objective of NASA.
Lol don't worry, this Astronaut knows pronouns. /s

Isn't there an entire movie about racism in NASA that's basically just a feel good story for white people?

These science institutions shouldn't be used for fucking politics.
You'd think, huh? Daamn, that's crazy

Just did yesterday after putting it off for some months

Hidden Figures. More or less "The Help" for NASA dweebs.
It concedes that black women were instrumental in developing and executing a successful space race, but gets really cagey around questions like "Why did NASA only have a White Men's Restroom to begin with?", "What caused us to omit people like this in films like Apollo 13 or The Right Stuff?", and "How come the women who pioneered implementation of Fortran at NASA weren't able to pivot into senior administrative roles, private contracting firms, or academic positions like their male peers?"

Bro, if you're going to be sarcastic, at least try to sound smart. You just need to read the title to see its fucking propaganda from the opposition.

everything is political. you are advocating that these institutions pretend observer bias doesn't exist.
