"On 3 separate occasions during the fall and winter, reporters witnessed Norfolk Southern trains blocking intersections leading to an elementary, a middle and a high school for 4, 6 and 7 hours. @ProPublica and InvestigateTV showed footage of kids making the crossing, including an elementary student crawling under a train, to representatives of Norfolk Southern, lawmakers and Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, whose remit includes rail safety.

He was shocked."

Here’s my current work-in-progress: a liver with a lot of poetic text! #SciArt #embroidery

I just migrated from mastodon.lol so let me introduce myself again:

I am a South American biologist, #rstats programmer, and member of several communities of practice in open and responsible research. I am currently a postdoc at UFABC in Brazil, working on the resilience of Brazilian Atlantic Forest ecosystems to climate change.
I am always learning about non-liberal, trans-inclusive feminisms, anti-racism, social and environmental justice, and responsible AI.
