it’s never gonna not be wild to me that actual doctors with actual degrees where they spent significant portions of their lives studying infectious diseases can give warnings about covid & people who are not actual doctors can hear them & be like “well here’s why you’re wrong…”

It still astounds me there are people who think they know better than the doctors and scientists. There is just no excuse anymore

This isn’t how αdrienne ❁ and I were planning on starting off our wedding month, but the stars aligned and we found the cutest dog at the shelter. She is already so spoiled and loved! #winniethepooch

Checking in: Chicago's Dos

A little chilly this morning with frost on the ground, but we are going to get a perfect fall day to say “I do”. αdrienne ❁

How can you not love Dos?

Any time bulls win & Illinois beat Iowa it’s a great day 💫🤞🏾😭 #JL4L

Getting the 🐐 Jason Benetti and my new favorite Robbie Hummel on the call for the Illini game!

Happy Summer Solstice! This beautiful visual shows the terminator sway from solstice to solstice. Pretty cool, huh?

The problem with SCOTUS looking to whether a “right” is “deeply rooted in our history or traditions” is that our history and traditions are filled with genocide, slavery, brutality and misogyny. Why should we limit our “rights” to things that have only existed for those in power?

I’m bummed I don’t fall into IL17, because it would have truly been a privilege to vote for Eric Sorensen. Getting Eric into Congress would be a win for all! #IL17

⚡️U.S. Senate has now passed landmark climate legislation! Puts us on path to meeting our obligation to cut carbon emissions in half by 2030, re-establishing American leadership on climate & paving the way to global climate action. Now onto the U.S. House and President Biden.

This week, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law, taking the biggest step forward on climate in our history. Let’s break these historic provisions down together. – Ali Zaidi Archived

Congrats Sonia! A brilliant mind, a fantastic professor/advisor, and a great person! It was a true privilege to work in her research group, and I wouldn’t be the scientist I am today without her.

My reaction to the start of this #Illini vs Wisconsin game so far

Sweeping Wisconsin in football and basketball is oh so sweet. All 10+ point wins too. Rename the Kohl Center to the Matthew Mayer Center immediately (26 points, 6 points) I-L-L…
