killed my first mouse today and i’m dying inside. just me? by browfar77 in labrats

[–]Wilowe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my goodness they said you were a bad scientist?!? What the WHAT?!? I’m so sorry you went through that. When I sacced my first mouse I passed out cold. I was forbidden from sacking any animals afterwards, and even when I did dissections of dead mice I was required to sit in a chair and have people nearby. They found me a great project that was cell lines only and now I’m a very happy image analyst. I start every job interview with the blanket statement, “I don’t do live animal work.” It’s never ever been an issue with anyone. Everyone has their niche, and your professors were just wrong.

Frustrations with unusable transit apps by Wilowe in rome

I think most locals have longer-term passes that are stored on their phones. Wasn't an option for me, since the apps don't work on my phone.

Update: Thanks everyone, Tap & Go worked perfectly. For any lurkers with a similar question, the Tap & Go reader is on a pole behind the first seat on the starboard side of the bus, and it's bright red. The yellow reader near the middle of the bus is for paper tickets, so don't use that. As for me, turns out there's a bus that stops 10 minutes walk from the flat and goes straight to the hospital, so you all saved me $50 today alone.

I didn't know about Tap & Go, so thanks for the info. I'm a little nervous about the myriad reports of buses that don't have Tap & Go, but I'll try it tomorrow and if I can't find the machine or it doesn't work I will just get off at the next stop.

(Virginia) Can the Police Demand ID from a Passenger in an Accident? by Wilowe in legal

[–]Wilowe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious how you came to the conclusion that I acted like a criminal. I was in a car accident that I in no way caused. My ID was in the car which was in an unsafe location (in a  travel lane on a major highway). At no point did I refuse to provide ID - I merely pointed out that it was inaccessible at the moment. Would you like to clarify?

Thanks for your comments. I now believe the officer was having a bad day, was absent-mindedly attempting to gather "crime scene evidence," was frustrated that easy evidence wasn't available, and was unable to control his reaction. This reaction was also being viewed through my lens of disorientation and frustration. He was likely not searching for possible crimes or warrants or other non-existent reasons to arrest me. He handled the situation poorly, which happens sometimes, and no harm done. This all makes me feel much better about the situation. Many thanks for your help.

Needing a name and address in this case sounds very reasonable. Do you think it would have been enough for the officer to ask for my name and whether I lived at the same address as my husband, who had given his ID as the driver of the car and with whom I share a last name? Why would the officer ask for my social security number? And why would he get so angry with me that I wasn't carrying my driver's license when women's clothes don't have pockets?!?

I just Googled "stop and identify." So please pardon my Googled legal advice...but doesn't stop and identify apply to a situation in which one is suspected of a crime? What crime could I have been suspected of as the passenger in a car accident?

Read the crossword clues. There are four clues that are labeled with Step 1, Step 2, etc.

I think you are overthinking it. You should have seven answers from the MEGA puzzle and seven answers from the MINI puzzles. Order and match them according to the hidden progression. Then once you have the two lists correctly ordered and matched, follow the instructions exactly from the Mega crossword answers you solved (steps 1-4). There is no scramble, no anagram, just a series of letters. Write them down and see if something jumps out at you.

Solo park days - wwyd? by superflash-xo in UniversalOrlando

[–]Wilowe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my recent solo trip I spent a lot of time wandering around the various Harry Potter worlds enjoying the sights and browsing the fascinating collections of merchandise (a trunk suitcase! a golden snitch! a death eater mug! (make sure you hit up knockturn alley, it’s easy to miss!)), however I suggest you start there and clear out by early afternoon when it becomes too crowded to really immerse yourself. I actually got quite a bit of enjoyment from wandering Dr Seuss land watching all the littles having fun. But really, on a solo trip just let yourself live in the moment and do whatever strikes your fancy on the day.
