- Reposted by Cat CorriganYou can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.
- Reposted by Cat CorriganI reported on economics full-time in 2020. It taught me there are no incentives to have a baby in the US. Women in the US have to pay for pre-natal, medical and child care, earn less, do most of the parenting and chores, get promoted less, and are now at 27% higher risk of maternal mortality.

- My mom just lost the right to vote. I feel sick to my stomach.

- Reposted by Cat CorriganA reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

- Reposted by Cat CorriganWhen you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public
- Reposted by Cat CorriganGosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.
- Reposted by Cat CorriganYep
- Reposted by Cat CorriganIf you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

- Reposted by Cat CorriganToday I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

- Hot take as someone renovating a 1916 Aladdin Homes catalog house: we need to normalize painting these homes funky, period-accurate colors instead of turning them into grey/beige boxes. You want a boring, modern house? Go buy a boring, modern house. These places are full of so much character.

- I'm not all doom and gloom about the death of science research and our health infrastructure. Sometimes I also go to movie premieres dressed up like a Ghostbuster. Throwback to last year at the Frozen Empire red carpet world premiere in NYC.
