BAY AREA: We’ve made significant progress at the bargaining table while on strike, but UCOP has shown zero leadership. Join UC-UAW academic workers at Snow Park in Oakland, Monday the 28th at 1PM to march on UCOP and demand they bargain in good faith and settle fair contracts!

I’m heartbroken 💔. Condolences to his family.
We are saddened by the passing of Dr. Frank Drake. Drake was driven by the question of whether we are alone in the universe. His work, including the famous Drake Equation, has shaped the search for life for decades. Our CEO @BillNye shares his thoughts on Drake's passing here.

Replying to @FatherlyHQ
Three years after he struck gold with Forrest Gump in 1994, Robert Zemeckis directed Contact, a ruminative science fiction novel based on the Carl Sagan novel of the same name. Now, 25 years after its release, Contact remains a classic for a reason.

Epic gamer moment!
