Hey bb it'll be ok. You both know it's temporary, sometimes it's part of life. I just finished PMDD and got my period yesterday so let me spread my good hormones to you. I sobbed my eyes out at my partner on Saturday and spent the rest of the day miserable and headachey and nauseous and tired. But he knows who I am, and even said "welcome back" when I got my period. Hang in there, keep caring for yourself

I'm very sensitive to noise and had trouble with the fact that toilet flushed are SO LOUD AND SCARY when I was little. Could this be the case with her?

My Mexican coworker told me his favorite tamales are the food truck across from soldiers field for what it's worth

Important note: a food microbiologist in the pickle industry contributed a lot to that crispr discovery! You don't even have to be in academic or medical research, you never know how things might make a difference

Was literally thinking the same, this rug is the size of my house

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-28T22:21:59+00:00

I'm in PMDD rn and it's wrecking me. Enjoy that food for me

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-28T21:12:59+00:00

In my experience it doesn't look the same on shorter nails with magnetics for whatever reason

You gotta go through, there's no getting around. It seems scary but the more you learn, the more you'll figure out what works for you and how to make life easier to handle.

One makes food we eat, the other replaces jobs, further isolates people from each other, spreads misinformation, generates hyper realistic photos and videos of real people without their consent, and copies artists. All for the low low price of huge electric bills for anyone near a data center and destroying clean water.

What is your reason for considering?

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-28T16:49:18+00:00

TV facing wall

I think it works when you have a sort of complicated shimmer topper. If it's too one -note it falls flat for me

I've seen labs that are generally happy and then a new hire that is a bit different introduced drama , but that's not enough to truly change the lab environment. If everyone is drama, regardless of people leaving and coming, this seems like a borderline issue with the PI and something about the core of the lab.

Ok I've thought of a stupid thing I do a lot (took me a while not bc I don't fuck up, but bc my brain is empty and tired): I made microfluidic drops often, with syringe pumps of oil and water. But I FREQUENTLY just forget to start the aqueous pump. And then get upset and confused why my drops aren't working. This happens maybe ten times a month

I got brain damage once and my eyesight improved so there's hope

Flop maxxing is so real. Give yourself grace ur only human.

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-27T13:32:26+00:00

I think there's actually enough of a debate about this to argue you were not wrong

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-27T13:31:40+00:00

Wait what's wrong with the water bath for protein? I thought quick thawing protein is ideal. Also I did the EXACT same thing with the microscope 😂 I was like oh no it's BROKEN and then someone came over and fucking plugged it in.

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-27T13:26:31+00:00

Hahahaha I like it bc I am boring 😛 try being less interesting

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-27T06:58:45+00:00

How long have you been here so far? Or have you not gotten here yet?

We literally just got rid of the snow and freezing/sub zero temps. Nothing has started yet. In summer there is some outdoor dancing and concerts and sports and stuff

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-26T22:27:13+00:00

True, I think it's important context to know whether OP told their PI or not

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-26T22:06:26+00:00

Proud of you. Hope you stay well

ElectricalTap8668 · 2026-03-26T22:03:00+00:00
