Just a biologist in a chemistry lab. Soon to be a biologist in eastern Montana. Parent, ally 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇵🇸, knitter, diabetic, neurodivergent, and more descriptors than I can think of...
Ah. Nothing like an email from the university president trying to ease our fears with NIH guidelines...
It's not like it was bad enough with our admins watching my lab's hours (we're mostly technicians), but now this 15٪ indirect cost cut... We're a Core that is funded by grants... #research

So... I'm not holding out for the first job I put in for a couple weeks ago especially with the current administration...
I've since applied for a job with Montana FWP that is still a departure from what I have done for the past 6 years, but isn't a federal science job. #mtjobsearch

I will never not share a quote from Baldwin. The previous 4 years of Hell had a former professor quoting daily. #JamesBaldwinquote
“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist”

“You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute.”

It has just started sleeting here in Plano. My boss sent a message telling us to stay home because she's keeping the lab closed today. I wonder how many researchers are going to complain that our little service lab wasn't available... #dallassnow25 #corelablife #metabolicphenotyping
