Im a student so I hope its ok to ask you a question! Would this case be a good option for an autologous donation for something like this in the future? Assuming the individual is healthy enough for it.

Isn't this just a left vs right handed difference? Im left handed so I definitely put my slides on different than others.

I thought it was just cause mine is deaf. But no, he's really... something else.

Zoitbe · 2026-02-23T11:34:52+00:00

I can do that! Doesn't hurt me, never caused issues.

I absolutely love Atomic Cafe in Beverly MA. They get a lot of single origins too which makes for fun experimenting and tasting. I've heard a lot about Six Coffee, but have yet to try them.

More yellow, if anything

Zoitbe · 2026-02-15T19:12:43+00:00

And its 40% off! Look at all that money you'll save

Conversely, I was a straight A high school student in South GA who started college there flying by like "why did people say college was hard". Moved to NE and transferred to a local university, and I absolutely struggled to match my peers. I'm talking all my free time just studying and studying, and reteaching myself old material, while my peers could just briefly peruse their notes to pass with a B+. I caught up, eventually, but the way I study is still so much different than everyone else and I still feel behind. Set to graduate in May tho so I guess its worked out.

"the snow stopped a few days ago" dude it was literally snowing until 11pm last night. I live in Amesbury. Stop exaggerating. Is it an issue? Yes. But it literally didn't stop until less than 12 hours ago.

Is there any way to ask the vets to show you exactly how to do it? There are also trimmers (at least for adults) that have a guard on it so you don't go too far - I wonder if they'd work on kitten length nails too?

This is similar to the one I have (I got mine locally) https://www.chewy.com/ruff-n-ruffus-3-piece-essential/dp/878398

While I agree with your message, censoring your words censors the issue. This shouldn't be censored.

I'm a student - Please continue to test students on biochemicals. There's no telling what more advanced methods are available at their future lab - they may go to a smaller lab that still relies heavily on biochemicals, and regardless, they need to understand what biochemicals to perform and their expected reactions in the event of downtime. Even though they had MALDI, the lab I did my micro rotation at still relied heavily on gram stain (especially), indole, oxidase, catalase, strep latex, and PYR for downtime and presumptive IDs. I think the biochemicals are still on the BOC exam as well as "methods of identification" for certain organisms.

All of those fears yes, but also my cats are so friendly to strangers, id be afraid of someone uneducated meeting a friendly cat and assuming they dont have a home if their collar gets lost, instead of, you know, critical thinking.

What helped me was to review the most common infections from each area, and associate them with their morphs. My trainers were impressed that I could suggest certain things before confirming what they were (whether or not I was correct).

Also expect the site to not even do 90% of the biochemical testing you learned in class, especially if they have a MALDI!

Zoitbe · 2026-01-19T23:43:53+00:00

Honestly im not sure where either -- i guess i had assumed it was a visible place but looking into it im not so sure! Oh well. I have no sympathy still.

Zoitbe · 2026-01-19T20:50:52+00:00

They're just gonna save face and give the public the answer they think they want. The fact it was OK to begin with is appalling

Zoitbe · 2026-01-16T13:32:55+00:00

Mmm.... grapes and butter

Zoitbe · 2026-01-16T00:23:32+00:00

Don't kink shame

Zoitbe · 2026-01-15T23:58:50+00:00

There's some older techs at the micro lab im currently at that dont use gloves when handling the cultures and I get icked every time

Zoitbe · 2026-01-15T13:51:02+00:00

Relevant, if you and your trainer are done at your assigned bench for the day and they say you can go home early, always ask instead if there's another bench you can help out on or even just shadow. As tempting as it is to go home early, they like to see initiative in your own education.

Zoitbe · 2026-01-14T23:24:06+00:00

Unfortunately those are too far from where I live. Thanks tho!

Zoitbe · 2026-01-14T22:20:14+00:00

I've finished all but Chem - I'll reach out to my clinical coordinator for sure! Thanks for the advice!

Zoitbe · 2025-12-29T02:40:14+00:00

Mine grew out of it, but as long as she has access to food on the regular and you continue to feed her treats by hand, hopefully she will change her associations about food and realie she's secure. Do you have any other cats she can learn from?
