I am a Postdoc in the Hendrickson/Bielinsky lab at the University of Virginia.
I am a first gen college student and Navy veteran of the first gulf war (and technically the GWOT)
I like 3d printing, games, brewing, baking, traveling, and many others.

I really need to figure out how to make an effective resume. Just months of rejections. All claiming i lack the required skills (several of which were projects i had chapters in my thesis on) and others im told i don't the required skills for jobs that literally state there are no required skills. 😡

I left Gmail 8 years ago and for not a ton of money you can replace these features with a non-Gmail address by using Spark email and SaneBox:

Decided to give SNL a chance after years of not watching due to so many skits making fun of Trans people followed by Chappelle hosting. One of the skits was about a sorority dealing with the threat of men dressing as women to gain access...

A life update: this wound up paying off. I'm still applying to several jobs that are hopefully careers, but I've got my survival needs covered by a job at the airport that I'm apparently pretty good at.
And instead of being in an office alone, which was driving me mad, I see 20k people a day.

There is a line around this building to get to the line entrance to wait to get into this job fair.
At the airport. For airport jobs.

I do not want the video. I will never watch the video. I usually won’t even give the video the effort of complaint.
I just want to read the news story. Give me the text. This would be my Ted Talk but that would be text too.

Watching @mostlybree.kitrocha.com having great fun with the 3d printer inspired me to get one with plans to print cool and fun DNA and protein models. Sadly, the fish thing I'm printing is a memorial box for my buddy of 16 years. We're saying goodbye to our Thunder on Monday 💔

Hello, i am biologist in an action film. I am friendly, charismatic, and personally responsible for all the horrors you are about to experience.
Hello, I am some sort of giant predator in an action film. Once I have encountered the human lead I will relentlessly pursue them through considerable personal risk, even taking on other large predators, despite a human being barely a mouthful for me.
Hello. I am an expendable character in an action film. If you shoot me with a regular gun I will scream in pain before I die. But if you shoot me with a silencer I will - obligingly - just let out a quiet gasp.

In 2019, with the help of Egyptologist Serena Love and Microbiologist Rich Bowman, I went to Boston’s MFA and Harvard’s Peabody museum to attempt collecting 4,500 year old yeast from Ancient Egyptian pottery. In this thread, I baked with some of it.

We've raised over $1100 USD (1400 CAD) for wildfire relief in western Canada so far! Get 81 books and games with a ton of queer content for $10 (or more) and help us raise money to support and rebuild local Native communities devasted by the fires. Shares appreciated!!

I want a prestige big budget streamer of Sharon Shinn’s Samaria series, but starting how I read them, with “Archangel” as season 1, so you get all the complex angel theological and the iconic romance and then gradually work up to the reveal that God is a spaceship
What's an SFF work written by a woman that you think deserves a screen adaptation?

The law determines what is legal. It does not determine what is true; what is just; what is morally and ethically sound and defensible. The history of law is the history of the legal system being wrong on these grounds.
