Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

I wonder when I should be starting my write up… hm…

This app is one of the few where I feel so much less polluted by ads and other nonsense I wish more people were on it

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand. It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.

Man it sucks twitter has so many connected people on it cause this app is so much cleaner and so much less polluted by the Orange guys minions

The folks obsessively posting about egg prices for the past few years have gone strangely quiet just as egg prices hit an all-time high.

We got two professional yappers in this meeting 😵‍💫

Sometimes I get really upset that I have to have another job during grad school. Like I’m blamed for all of it (“choosing” to work another job and not performing as well because of that “choice”) and it really sucks.

Another day, another quarter

I think people who are concerned about the social and political "consequences" of Michelle Obama skipping the inauguration don't know enough working class families and where this ranks on their list of concerns.

I really wish more people cared about what I know about my special interests

I'm starting to think I shouldn't have ever applied to a PhD program. There's a reason only ~3% of first-generation college students get a PhD and it's not the fault of ourselves.

Growing up is realizing no one gives an actual shit about your background in academia. They don't care how much you've struggle and do struggle, they'll still tell you you aren't good enough and won't let you try to achieve your dreams

I’m totally gonna regret volunteering to run a lab session on Sundays this term 😭

Man academia really sucks sometimes

The first time I saw the moon during the day I was fully perplexed

Why I gotta out-Trek everyone Can I just meet one other person besides my husband who Treks like I [Star] Trek?

What are a bunch of physicists doing on a Tuesday night in the GC? Discussing whether the chicken crossing the road is to be taken literally or to assume the chicken is suicidal

I shall be training for the C2C trail this year! Plan to do it for my birthday.

These things just make me realize how fucked up my makeup is

Earth to people in STEM fields: you are NOT better or more worthy of pay than other people just because you do math and science. Art and literature and history and manual labor and raising children etc all contribute as much or more than you in society. Knock that superiority complex off.

Was telling my friend that we don’t get paid enough as grad students and he said ya you should get paid better and I mentioned how people in non-stem fields gets paid even less and he said yes as it should be. And I just interrupted him and said I believe all labor should be paid well.. the irony

Man when you’ve been nose blind to your fave blanket and you go back home after being gone for 10 days and 🤢

The tattoo // the inspiration

Hold your loved ones so close to you

I’ve worked so hard

My students are so fed up they be straight up asking for points with no work

Hello little mushroom

Okay was just waiting to get rid of a weirdo on here but didn’t want to make assumptions but he finally said something that crossed the line, so blocked he is

Hello many new followers 🖖🏻

Homeboy stopped the wrong lady (H/T @agirlhasnopres.bsky.social )

It is so funny I have never used command line stuff and had no idea it even existed until my grad level computing class this term and now it’s everywhere. I’m even learning it at my engineering job. That’s so funny to me.

I miss REZZ

😬

All I wanna do is be invited to a podcast about one of my special interests

Man bsky has been reeaaaallllly slow

I want a hellrezzer hoodie so badly 🙃

Growing up is realizing you’re not the main character, nor are you always a good person, but trying every day to give good to the world anyway

They should hire women to be Santas in malls like I trust a woman dressed as a Santa way more than some random dude

Damn why does an Oregon 45 F feel like a Utah 20 F

Depression is a wack ass hoe

Bro I just had a rage dream that’s wild I don’t often have those

I got gifts for my friends here in Oregon, but I’ve only known them for about a year so I’m really worried a few of them won’t like what I got them! 🥲 I forgot what this felt like

Yes

I’m glad when I told my friend I couldn’t leave the house because I’m anxious that she just said “oh I’m so sorry let me know if you need help!” Instead of shaming me

I often get so stressed that I forget I can listen to music and that makes me really sad

Whyyyyyyyy does everything E&M leave my brain immediately after I learn it

“But when the college committees were evaluating faculty with lower h-indices, evidence of bias against Black and Hispanic scholars surfaced—especially for women. In those situations, “underrepresented minorities, particularly women of color, are held to a different standard,” Madera says.” …
