@peacescientists.bsky.socialInteresting how fascists know exactly how civilization will end, and its always because they will be prevented from owning all the power and resources. #StopFascism #GiveADamn #SaveTheAcademy #PhiladelphiaPromise
@savetheacademy.bsky.socialThe Academy of Natural Sciences is slated to close its doors permanently tomorrow.

@peacescientists.bsky.social#SaveTheAcademy scientists, friends and families marched from the Academy of Natural Sciences museum through the rain to Philadelphia City Hall after the museum doors closed, we were told for the last time but we are fighting for them to open again. youtu.be/h1QJ-ByvZqA?...
@peacescientists.bsky.socialSurely Drexel has other buildings they can sell if they really are in the financial hole David Cohen (who is not a scientist) claims?What about those buildings next to 30th Street Station? They could be turned into ultra-rich bolt-holes. #SaveTheAcademy #WilliamPennFoundation #SaveScience
@savetheacademy.bsky.socialFirst act of a play. You build up to a conflict, and then..
Intermission.
The Academy of Natural Sciences is our main character. Things look bad and the stage has gone dark.
It’s intermission.
Call the mayor.
Call Merlo.
🚨Call Drexel, alumni.🚨
Get ready for act two.

@entcollnet.bsky.socialOur position in regard to the resolution about the Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia.
This issue deeply affects our community, with many members having visited or worked closely with the academy over the years.
We stand with @savetheacademy.bsky.social
@peacescientists.bsky.socialProtest videos now live. This was the first from the front of the Academy. #SaveTheAcademy youtu.be/KfBwetttzoA?...
@peacescientists.bsky.socialPhilly scientists: I have been thinking of a list of demands from Drexel, which also includes actions by us. IS anyone else doing this? Very happy to compile lists and data, I love data and do not need a paycheck #SaveTheAcademy #DrexelUniversity #AcademyOfNaturalSciences #Scientists
@peacescientists.bsky.social12.30pm Philadelphia time, videos from yesterday's #SaveTheAcademy protests are live. Meanwhile, videos from September (Anthony Drexel's 200th birthday month!!!) are on www.youtube.com/@drsjdodgson. I was awarded my PhD at UNSW in 1978, and hopped on a plane for physiology postdoc at UPenn.
