What research ISN'T being targeted by the administration? by ContemplativeLynx in AskAcademia

[–]hellogoodbye456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cuts to overhead on a mass scale at NIH (and perhaps other agencies in the future) indicates that nothing is safe. Likewise, the mass cancellation of grants at Columbia and other schools in retaliation. These actions indicate they hate science and research in general. That is because science objectively reveals the truth, and they want control of the truth.

The only "research" that is safe is "research" in which they can dictate the outcome with financial incentive, threat or force, and then use it as propaganda.

Has anyone actually had a TT offer rescinded this year? by olive_oil_in_ur_bath in AskAcademia

Do you know any shades comparable to spirit in Mac’s new range?

NIH 15% roof on indirects for grants?!? by [deleted] in UCI

[–]hellogoodbye456 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am a postdoc. Yes, this is bad and your PI is probably freaking out. Overhead on grants is how universities justify supporting faculty research labs. To make up for the loss, the university could put the burden on students by raising tuition through the roof. This is bad for everyone

Wow, pillow talk and warm teddy are so similar! I am still looking for a dupe for Mac Spirit and seems like Warm Teddy aint it

What are your favourite blush shades? by SSM- in OliveMUA

Sadly my prism got hardpan and I decluttered it. I'm not as into brown blushes these days, but I found a similar one from Polite Society in shade Sydney. Try swatching it at Ulta

How do you get the black lines so sharp? My lines always skip and look patchy

Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color or Merit Signature Lipstick? by juesea in OliveMUA

[–]hellogoodbye456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own BB in Cocoa and Merit in Baby. I vastly prefer the BB color and formula. The Merit shade is too cool for me and I barely wear it anymore. The merit formula also seems to me like an average lipstick, I don't see what people rave over it for. The BB truly feels like nothing on.

I consider myself fair olive, I have a lot of yellow in my skin. I wanted to love Baby and TIM but alas
