Are you a scientist who has periods? Have they affected your education or work? Wanna tell me about it for journalism? Then please get in touch!

Very good news. ACS still has a massive amount of work to do if there's any chance of fixing the mess they made, but this seems like the right first step.

Dorea was the connection many C&EN readers had to the magazine. Outstanding journalism aside, I'm convinced that she is a big reason @cenmag is so well loved right now. And some other outlet is going to be very lucky to get her.

I also resigned last week from @AmerChemSociety after almost 11 years because of the continued assaults on @cenmag’s integrity. I am so sad for the amazing people who work here and our readers. No one at ACS is acknowledging the problem or seems to be working to fix it.

I get why Connelly and others believe the first is true, but I do not. C&EN and ACS’s ability to get and keep the journalists who can do that kind of work is directly tied to C&EN’s reputation. Making it more of a society organ hurts that rep. And I have told him as much.

Quick reply from Thomas Connelly, CEO. Excerpts: *The change does not impact C&EN’s ability to continue to do independent, world-class science journalism that we’ve come to expect. *Safety, including lab safety, will continue to be an important subject for our C&EN coverage.

C&EN's publisher Susan Morrissey on the restructuring: cen.acs.org/acs-news/Editori… Caffeine-free Diet Coke is more substantive than this editorial

The @AmerChemSociety has gutted the journalism of its flagship magazine, C&E News. I did not renew my student membership after graduation. I told the fundraiser who called me that as an academic postdoc, I didn't see why I should help fund million dollar executive salaries

What the hell are they doing to @cenmag ??

My last day @cenmag and ACS was this past Monday. I’m on the market for a new position and excited about what the future may bring.

Jyllian assigned and edited the two C&EN stories I’m most proud of. She mentored me as I stepped out of my reporting comfort zone. This is a tremendous loss for @cenmag.

I’m feeling awful (again) for my @cenmag friends and former colleagues. @AmerChemSociety has just fired the two most senior editors. Another unfathomable, destructive decision. #chemtwitter

Correction: That should be *two of* the most senior editors.

If you are a chemist, you have to be a geek-level fan of at least two of these: - The Shape of Water - James Bond - The Fifth Element These are the rules.

To be clear I think the quoted tweet is gatekeepy and bad, joke or not.

If you got up early for the #Artemis1 launch and are now looking for something to do, I was reminded today of this lovely podcast with @SamLemonick about the early days of rocket propellants: cen.acs.org/physical-chemist…

Podcast: When rocket chemistry blasted off and came back to Earth

Rocket chemists have pushed the boundaries of chemistry, through good times and bad
