Rahm Emanuel running for president as a Democrat on a platform of "Ban kids from social media for their own good" while promising absolutely nothing about climate change is the absolute dumbest political news I've heard all year. No exaggeration. Every democratic voter should be telling him to FO.

I misspelled "penicillin" as "pennecillin" and now I want to quit what I'm currently doing and extensively categorize fungus growing on pasta.

The dog show should have a mutt division. This is not up for discussion, the breeders are factually evil and have corrupted a process to find which dog is the best dog by insisting the best dog has to be a purebred dog.

Yes #roblox has a huge problem with child predators that they know about and are for reasons passing understanding are just totally ignoring or are trying to say is a good thing BUT on the other hand the games are also terrible.

A full two hours of working to get a doctor's appointment and I have finally succeeded in making one three weeks from now. I never want to hear another fucking word about how socialized medicine is inefficient. Capitalism is inefficient and also expensive.

I think Ds should ask for the firing of RFK in the budget negotiations. It's a big, easily understandable ask, which would massively benefit the American ppl, and I think it would split the gop, many of whom want rfk gone anyway. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/demand-the...

Due to state budget cuts getting passed along (i.e., fewer TA slots to backstop 5-y funding guarantee), our Department is strictly limiting recruitment. Even folks w/ multiple grants are being told to wait til next year. Grad school top-up fellowships are suspended as well.

OK--fluorescent protein friends. We want an antibody to TagRFP that works in immunofluorescence. Any suggestions? Re-post please

Silver staining is awesome. If anyone has any suggestions for how I can improve his purification to make this silver stain less stainey, please do tell. I'm just happy I got bands.

Since leaving Twitter, the most notable event is that we got the world's laziest dog. Highly recommend Anatolian Shepherds, they are redonkulous.
