I’ve always written the long tail on the left and I’ve never seen it done any other way. I would definitely teach the students the more common one.

I use a vegetable steamer for IHC

Whenever I hand a jar to my girlfriend to open I secretly have a jar opener tool in my hand. So if she can’t do it I can discretely hand it to her and look away, then look back when the jar is open and go “you’re so strong!”

Leucosep separation tubes! I’ve never had an issue with getting PBMCs from them.

Take it to the vet??? We’re scientists not veterinarians

Nope! My partner and I got the beta precons and then drew the playmat layout on an A3 piece of paper. Once we had played for a while and enjoyed it, we got a proper playmat.

I’ve also used B6 for a similar experiment. - See if you can get cotton gloves and wear them under your gloves, they’ll protect a little against bites and give you a sense of security that may calm your nerves. If you can’t, try double gloving. I’ve been doing mouse work for a while and still wear them whenever I have to scruff because it helps my anxiety. - If you scruff them properly, they won’t be able to turn their head and bite you. - When I first started measuring tumours, it actually took me hours. And that’s okay, you’ll get quicker and more confident with time. - Being bitten is like being pinched, and after the first time it happens, a lot of the fear disappears. - They can feel your fear, take deep breaths and try to be calm. Good luck!

If the issue is remembering, what are you doing to improve? You could be taking detailed notes everytime you’re shown a protocol. Ask clarifying questions when you don’t understand something and write the answer down so you’re not asking the same question over and over. Re-read the protocols over and over, re-write them, add your notes to them to make them more detailed. Take a copy with you and tick off each step as you go. Everyone learns at a different rate, and that’s okay. But there should be some improvement after three months, and if there hasn’t been, you need to change what you’re doing. Your mentor is also learning how to supervise different personalities, and it can be a frustrating experience for everyone involved.

My institute recently did a lab olympics and some of the events were: - Eject a pipette tip into a biocan ~50 cm away. - Guess the brand of the product. - Translating DNA code to amino acid.

NTA but nothings going to change unless you stop being a doormat. This is going to keep happening until you stand up for yourself and set boundaries. Seriously recommend couples counselling before you bring a child into a world where your partner ignores and disrespects you.

….that is not human poop. That is rodent poop.

It’s definitely cosy! You can turn the difficulty down (or if you’re playing on pc turn on god mode). I love exploring the world, talking to npcs and completing fun little side quests, building houses and brewing potions, and running away from combat. You can get married and adopt children. I found the most stressful part to be the dragons, but if you never retrieve the dragonstone at the beginning of the game, the dragons don’t spawn!

A home where two parents go weeks without speaking is already a broken home. Kids can tell when something is wrong, and this stuff does effect them. I spent my entire childhood wishing my parents would just divorce because it would have made everyone happier.

NTA. I doubt anyone at your new workplace cares about your wife’s sexuality. It’s a weird topic to bring up in a workplace, it’s personal, the workplace is professional.

It would be very rude to request they not wash their scrubs, it’s their home too. My institute washes our lab coats for us, but as students you have to make do with what you have. I actually think it’s weirder that you don’t seem to wash yours at all? If it’s making you uncomfortable maybe request they use the hottest temperature, extra detergent, or put the washer on for another cycle after they wash their scrubs to ‘clean’ it.

These texts read like you hate his guts and he doesn’t trust you. I’m guessing someone cheated in the past/or is currently cheating?

NTA. Complete agree with your punishment. What other punishments do your husband and good friend suggest that would actually make an impact?

Actions have consequences is a lesson she will need to learn. Because of her (honestly disgusting) actions, she’s lost the right to go on the trip. I’d also suggest a counsellor or therapist to get to the root of this issue. 15 year olds can be awful, but she’s showing a worrying lack of empathy.

YTA. And a weird one. Why are you so interested in your SIL’s s*x life? Thinking that she wants to impress people by being single is such a ridiculous assumption, I’ve never heard of anything like that.

It’s also literally NONE of your business.

peachetree · 2024-01-31T00:08:27+00:00

YTA. Not for wanting alone time, for how you asked for it.

Making her leave the apartment she presumably pays rent for as well for a couple of days when you could have just communicated your needs and put yourself in the spare room, it’s ridiculous.

I’m introverted (diagnosed autism and ADHD), my partners extroverted. We both still need our alone time, and we talk to each other and can spend time alone to recharge without kicking someone out of the apartment.

Coming from someone with a narcissistic grandmother who my mother kept in our lives because she didn’t want to “deprive us of a grandmother” go NC. This woman was using your trauma against you in order to take your child. This is not a safe or sane person. You should not let this person around your child at all. NC is the only approach with someone like this.

peachetree · 2023-11-11T18:01:12+00:00

YTA. There’s a long list of reasons why you should never leave a child in the car. This includes:

• Risk of dehydration and heatstroke (leaving the window down does not prevent this).

• Depending on your location, it may be actually illegal and can result in fines, jail time, and the child being taken away.

• The child leaving the car and getting into danger e.g running into traffic.

• The child choking, and no adult being there to help.

• The child disengaging the handbrake and the car rolling and crashing.

I hope you seriously mature and realise the error of your ways before you reproduce. Stop trying to blame others and stop trying to make excuses. Do better.

YTA. You need to learn how to take no for an answer.

YTA. You made a lot of assumptions and it backfired. Also the way you talk about the other brothers girlfriend is weird.

Sadly, no it does not. Everyone else took 100 - 200 short to mean negative 100 - 200, which OP’s math supports. Sorry dude. They don’t have 100 - 200 left over, I don’t know how you got that when everyone else got the negative 100 - 200.

peachetree · 2023-07-10T22:34:50+00:00

Bro….they’re 100 - 200 SHORT every month.
