I'm a bioscience researcher specialising in electron microscopy 🔬
Outside work I apparently enjoy collecting a new hobby every month, I paint, draw, crochet, stream etc. Now also a kitty foster mum 😺 so expect cat pics

No cheating, post your lock screen!
This chaotic gremlin is Rocco, looking delighted after stealing my breakfast. He's my current foster kitty but may become a foster fail! Love him

I doubt anyone will see this but let's try some positivity 😅

Yeah, this definitely seems like an exercise my therapist would approve of to balance all the doom in my mind, so hit me.
1 like = 1 thing I love (with pictures if possible)

Okay this seems like a wholesome way to ground myself rn

My first foster of the year! This is Rocco, an Abyssinian rescued from a vet that wanted to put him to sleep.
He is an absolute cuddle bug and just wants cuddles all day long

I'm not great at sticking to goals but this year I need to cook more, create more, spend less (things don't bring me happiness), socialise more.
First day in and I'm already struggling to find joy in anything I do.
How does happiness work? 🤔

Did a little New Vegas ED-E sketch to mark the end of my first playthrough. Despite trying to do everything, there's still stuff I missed in the game. Thoroughly enjoyed playing!
