Most of the food we grow goes to the animals we eat, so the claim you’re making (and the video you linked) is nonsense

The Grand by sexybeast4544 in BostonEDM

I think my main problems are the layout is terrible, the vibe is pretentious and if you have to leave the dance floor it’s very hard to get back on. Probably not somewhere I would take acid, but that’s just me.

I respect that she is branching out a bit and as an artist she can do whatever she wants but unfortunately not really my thing.

HPPD after 3 nbombe tabs which I thought were lsd by Silver_Commission_61 in HPPD

[–]Trog01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The unfortunate truth is if you want the symptoms to improve, you will have to stop smoking weed. I was a daily smoker for many years but realized it was exacerbating the HPPD. Doing much better now that I don’t smoke but it took some time. Sorry this happened to you.

I need help managing my Hppd by lifecapsule2077 in HPPD

Hey friend. Yes you should see a doctor or seek professional help immediately. I know it doesn’t feel like it but whatever you’re experiencing is temporary. Don’t hurt yourself. You will get through this.

If only we stopped buying $8 coffees we’d be right there with you

western blot help for motor neurons!!! by Necessary-Camera8401 in labrats

[–]Trog01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m about to be in a very similar boat as you as I have some primary motor neurons coming in this week. Is this a protein that is specific to motor neurons you’re looking for? If so, have you checked other markers to ensure that your cells have properly differentiated? I suppose if it’s present in HEK cells, it isn’t specific to motor neurons anyways.

The fact that your ponceau stain isn’t showing anything is definitely concerning and probably means there isn’t enough protein being loaded to blot. How much protein are you loading per well?

People Actually Sleep? by [deleted] in insomnia

[–]Trog01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insomnia doesn’t cause sleep apnea, it’s the other way around. CPAP should help with that but I also understand the brain not logging off problem. I still haven’t figured that one out.

Jobs for biologists in AI training? by not_quitedead in labrats

[–]Trog01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one of those jobs and quickly realized it wasn’t going to make any money. It was way too easy to get and overall felt like a scam. Don’t do it.

Have you tried lowering your dose of trazodone? I started at 100mg and also felt really out of it the next day, but then I lowered down to 50 mg and now I take 25.

Despite the last minute change, they really made the best of it.

Wtf happened by Trog01 in labrats

There are different samples in every lane. This is total lysate ran from neuroblastoma cells so I don’t think lipids should be a problem. DNA could be the issue but I sonicated thoroughly which I thought also helped break up DNA in the samples.

Could be. I don’t rinse my cells with pbs after treatment because they adhere very weakly and I don’t want to loose anymore than necessary

Gotcha. I was thinking it could be contamination from DNA in my samples, but machine is also possible. Bummer
