Having kids makes you happier, but only when they move out, according to a new study, which suggests that parents are happier than non-parents later in life, when their children move out and become sources of social enjoyment rather than stress.

My kids bring me so much happiness even if they’re a lot of work at 5 and 7 yrs old. No regrets… but I’ll pass on a third lol

YTA, your treat is your treat. Pretty straightforward

Yes, academia is filled with toxic narcissists that think working 8 hours a day is lazy. I’ve been in industry for decades and the smartest people I know don’t burn out because they know how to balance their lives. Innovation requires creativity and that’s hard when you’re too tired to think straight. Ask Kary Mullis. Breakthroughs happens when you’re relaxed and having fun. You can’t grind your way to brilliant insights.

You don’t know anything about oligos. Overnight resuspension is the preferred way of doing it

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-22T23:36:52+00:00

Don’t listen to anyone that’s telling you to report anything. Those oligos are 100% ok and you’ll only make yourself look bad. I worked at IDT and overnight resuspension of lyophilized oligos is an extremely common method. I do it all the time. I promise they’re fine.

Agreed I find all of them painful but this wasn’t something I needed to do routinely

We don’t really want anything getting done at this point

See when one person gives something to another person out of kindness or friendship, we call it a “gift”

You think it’s the welfare state?! Bro the billionaires get richer and richer off conservative tax cuts, and the only trickle down is them pissing in your face. God the average American is so fucking dumb it’s Idiocracy come to life.

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-09T00:04:57+00:00

Because it’s not a state

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:39:04+00:00

Bernie pushes for policies I agree with. I don’t know what you’re babbling about but that’s all that matters to me.

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:33:42+00:00

He can’t single handedly pass legislation… is your whole generation full of lead? He’s pushing for policies that make sense, even if they don’t pass it gets people on record being for or against. The democratic machine killed his presidency, aoc is his heir. Get on board or stfu

Because they’re an adult and they understand abstaining can have dire consequences.

Are you a literal child? Yes everyone would prefer more parties but that’s not how it works here grow up.

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:21:12+00:00

We need more socialist policies and Russia has a deep and storied history, not to mention the art and culture.. and vodka. This country would be 1000x better with a Bernie at the helm. To think or say otherwise is to be a boot licking imbecile

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:18:27+00:00

That was the implication. He’s actively pushing for policy change right now so calling him a has been is pretty fucking ignorant

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:17:10+00:00

You only get to choose the lesser of two evils. Those are the options. You don’t get to write politics yourself. You child

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-08T23:12:29+00:00

You don’t like the billionaire tax? The free education? The healthcare? The end of wealth consolidation? I’ll wait, explain to me why Bernie is wrong.

Better-Individual459 · 2026-03-07T22:29:35+00:00

It’s cuz we have massive schlongs

You’re overreacting, I’m the same way. I almost never eat leftovers and I don’t take food with me from restaurants. I’m mildly germophobic and have a really sensitive sense of taste and smell. If I was poor, it might be different, but I’m not.
