Pediatric. Oncologist. That dude is an absolute hero and treasure for taking on such a horrible and bleak profession. I hate that those words are combined in existence at all. God I'm so ashamed to be an American.

Some people are built different. My dad worked as a pediatric hospice nurse for almost 10 years. Talk about a shitty sad job. Every single patient is a child and every single one of them is GOING to die on your watch. Fuck THAT. I do not know how he did it.
Now that is a hero

This is a sign we are collapasing. When the smart people wanna leave we are left with a bunch of narrow minded, uneducated people.
I work in big tech. 10 years ago, nobody was talking about going back to India, Pakistan, and to an extent, China. Now, people are talking about it. They're talking about Indian stocks, Indian houses, and dreams of retiring to go back.
Most people aren't - but the number is now non-zero.
is the title a pun on "depart-ment of education"?
It's from a presidential directive for dissolving the "Departmen of Education"

Extremely sad news, this is what an authoritarian state looks like for anyone who still didn’t believe it. Wish them all the best wherever they land.
Wont last long until only the abolutely immoral scientists remain that are willing to experiment on political prisoners.
brain drain
It seems like the administration is trying to discourage travel across the border. Not just people on work visas, tourists and even citizens are reporting being detained. It's like East Germany or something.
Hold up, tourists? Are we safe to visit family?
Bruh, ask your consulate
At that point I'd rather just avoid the place. It's not considered safe by our government anyways

Welcome to Europe! You get to keep your healthcare plans into retirement!
Replacing education with idiots. The perfect republican scenario.
Why use Meta when Mastodon is available? The less we all use corporate social media the more resilient we become.
You have to say that on Meta if you want them to read it.

Why would the US need scientists when they have stable geniuses?
Didn't Albert Einstein flee Nazi Germany which advanced our research into what became the atomic bomb. Hmm... Should be fun century for USA.

Brain Drain time.
The US is trading science and reason for zeal and faith. At least the scientists will be welcomed in the EU.

Of course.
I'll mention you probably missed the Depart men(t) of Education wordplay in the title.

Why is this in the "memes" community? It is not a meme, is it? We should have a general discussion community for topics like these! (if it doesn't exist already).

I hope he's already put of the country before he posted that, or he'll be stopped and disappeared for being a security risk or something
