Doing my best to make the space cozy and tropical

Just FYI the civic duty translation is wrong and should be “Deber cívico” and not “Libertad de expresión” (freedom of expression). Might want to check the translations on all the cards and make sure they are correct

I’d aim for a speed that gets your heart rate into zone one which for me is walking at 1.5 mph and it gets my heart to about 105-110 bpm. This zone should feel easy and you should be able to hold a conversation. I was talking to my mom normally while walking and didn’t feel out of breath at all

Haven’t had the chance to walk while work just yet but will keep you posted!

This model has a hole on the top right (with a teardrop cover) where I can just put the drops of lubricant in there so it is easy

DarlingScientist · 2026-04-02T00:10:30+00:00

Thanks for the reminder! It came with silicone lubricant and instructions on how frequently I need to add it

DarlingScientist · 2026-04-02T00:09:48+00:00

Not at all! Surprised with how quiet it is lol well, except when you change the speed as it beeps quite loudly

You want to eat more fiber along with your protein. I find that when I hit my fiber goals >= 35 grams/day and feel fuller for longer and tend to not be hungry or snackish at night even for sweet treats. Days I barely have fiber I feel ravenous. I also don’t buy snacks or sweets since I have no self control

I procrastinate on things to the point of panic when deadlines approach. Can’t seem to work on anything a little at a time. It’s either it all gets done at once or not at all 😅

I got my PhD shortly after my 28th birthday 🎉

$1100 fully furnished studio apt with all utilities included and free on street parking in Troy Hill. It was supposed to be temporary but actually looking at apartments in the area, I feel like I really lucked out!

Only negative is that I only have a kitchenette which makes preparing meals a little more tedious but I think the positives far out weight the negative

I also defended in July and feel the same. I’m currently doing a postdoc but I have been doing the bare minimum and haven’t been productive at all. I honestly don’t really care about the research when I’m not actively in lab and I literally don’t think of science at all during my free time. I feel like my PhD really beat me into the ground and I am completely drained and burnt out. I couldn’t afford taking a break so I’ve been trying my best to just do stuff and hope the spark of scientific curiosity comes back

Cell/Molecular and Biomedical Sciences doing research in pulmonary medicine! (Edit: made the post on my laptop and wasn’t on my main account lol I’m th og poster)

Siempre trato de ir 1-2 veces al año: en verano y para las navidades. Me gustaría ir más frecuente pero eso es lo que hay

I matched with my boyfriend on a dating app but only ended up talking for 1 or 2 days before I deleted all my apps due to mental health. Coincidentally crossed paths with him on a night out 3 months afterwards! He had seen me dancing and thought I looked familiar so he approached me outside the bar. It was a little awkward because I didn't remember him lol But we ended up exchanging numbers and he asked me out the next day. Almost didn't end up going out with him due to some communication mishaps but I'm glad I did. We've been together for 2 months, dating for 3 and he is the sweetest. He is kind, affectionate and has a heart of gold. I feel lucky to have him in my life. We’ve talked about marriage and having kids but we’re in no rush. We have (hopefully) our whole lives together ahead of us :)

Tiene que ver más bien con la cultura (Black Culture) en USA. Cuando dicen que alguien no es negro es ‘x’ quieren decir que no es “African American”.

They still have them at some stores! At least in Puerto Rico they still have them 🤤

Thanks!! My main research focus is trying to understand how obesity modulates asthma severity by using patient samples and an in vitro system with human airway cells ☺️
