CW = Cauliflower Warning 🤔

"Never sleep if you want to win" bros are to me like incels --- particularly disturbing, because I find them reflections of myself in a particularly toxic mirror.

I, personally, work a little most every day, because that happens to fit my style. My job is astoundingly flexible (research position, so no teaching; theory, so not tied to a lab spatially or temporally). And there's basically a continuum of activity between "serious work" and faffing off. I can read old physics papers or brush up on math that's tangential to my research project, and it's pretty much like a paid hobby. I can get totally high on that legal Massachusetts weed and scribble down ideas for new things to investigate, and sometimes in the morning they still make sense. Watching a math video to see if I can recommend it to a prof colleague as a teaching aid is only slightly more demanding than kicking back with the BA test kitchen.

Lucky in physics, unlucky in love.

@ajroach42 The bit in /The General/ with the cannon on the train is action comedy at a level that film has perhaps never surpassed.

@ajroach42 I've got a stack of physics and history-of-physics papers in various stages of completion.

pls remember that there is a tiny pixel kitten who likes you and believes in you when you are having a hard time :blobcatheart:

Hey guys I know I'm new here, but I just got fired from a new job and am struggling to pay for food and gas (both of which I currently have none of) until the 9th. If anybody can lend me a few dollars, anything helps, I'd really truly appreciate it. I just need a little help until I get back on track again next pay period.
My venmo is Damien-Willow and paypal is notyourhalo@gmail.com

Thank you so much in advance! I appreciate any help anyone may be able to spare

hey so I'm stuck in the hellhole that is Utah and I really, really, really need some help. If I can't make at least $300 by 8/8, I might not be able to go home yet. I seriously injured my finger on the way here, and I've been having mental breakdowns every day. My girlfriend and her wife are fighting really hard to make enough money to go up.. if you could help us get to $300 it would mean the world to me 💜

Ugh, fuck all the politicians who enabled these subsidies in the first place

Yes I'm talking about you too Trudeau

I wonder if there's like a bunch of racist/sexist/anti-queer pseudo science being posted to preprint servers

I should download a big set of medical preprints and a big set of peer-reviewed medical journal articles and test for differences in citations of Jordy P

CTVT is one of the strangest organisms on the planet--a dog tumor that turned into a contagious global parasite which has spread between dogs for around 6000 years. Not quite a dog, not quite a cancer: Everything about it is deeply weird.
