Are we there yet? Not even a full month into the Trump presidency and we’re in full-blown chaos.
Countless people living legally in the United States continue to suspend international travel because of the ban (yes, it’s a ‘ban’) on immigrants from Muslim-majority countries. Trump has gotten in phone-call brawls with the Australian prime minister and the president of Mexico, who Trump seems to have threatened with military force. A leaked draft executive order shows that Trump plans to essentially legalize discrimination against LGBT people under the guise of religious freedom. And the new Scotus nominee supports religious employers who want to deny their employees’ contraception coverage.
Oh, and since all that wasn’t enough for one week - a right-wing white man is accused of killing six people in a Quebec mosque.
Time to refill that Xanax prescription, friends.
Glass Half Full
In a little over two months, nerds across the country will descend on Washington, DC in the first-ever March for Science. Over 1.3 million people have expressed support for the protest, which takes place on April 22, Earth Day (obviously). I will be there, with goggles on.
