coworker: it's good to see that centrifuge getting some use; most people don't like it because it's so sensitive me: *has been devising nobel prize-worthy balance configurations for every single load* haha yeah i guess i've just been lucky with it so far :)

[motherfucker-somewhat-limited]

the feelings i'm experiencing about this are akin to when a pet comes up to greet you and its owner is like "omg i never see them go up to strangers like that they're usually so shy"

developing a horse girl-like bond with the centrifuge

[motherfucker-somewhat-limited]

centrifuge: *shudders or makes noise* me: *patting its flank* shhhh... it's okay, girl...

[mcgravin]

I'm fairly certain the answer will be "because they don't want to spend money", but is there a reason your workplace doesn't just get a new centrifuge, maybe one with auto-balancing?

[motherfucker-somewhat-limited]

because the centrifuge works fine if you're pure of heart

today I learned that it's recently been discovered that the droplets of moisture in fog contain living bacterial ecosystems, and that they help break down pollutants in our atmosphere.

THAT IS SO COOL.

gonna give fog a round of applause next time I see some

also I low-key want to study fog now, whoops.

The fog is alive: Droplets host bacteria that clear toxins from our air

What if fog isn't just misty air, but a living ecosystem? This question hung over cloud researcher Thi Thuong Thuong Cao. As a Ph.D. student

(Also, the line 'This question hung over cloud researcher Thi Thuong- ' made me smile. writer could have gone with 'cloud researcher asked this question' or 'so-and-so decided to seek answers to this question' but no.

both writer and editor went the whimsical and fun route, and I shall applaud that too.)

AND YET!

Pope Leo is letting American bishops entirely ban trans healthcare for both minors and adults in all Catholic-owned hospitals and clinics, and stop coverage for trans healthcare through Catholic-affiliated health insurance plans!!

People are having surgeries, for which they were on waitlists for years, suddenly cancelled. Hormones no longer covered, their clinicians no longer able to prescribe them. Considering in some states Catholic-owned healthcare organizations make up to a third of the market, as it were, this is a HUGE issue.

‘It’s a Nightmare’: The Human Toll of the Catholic Church’s Trans Healthcare Ban

Missing hormones. Canceled surgeries. Bureaucratic denials. Late last year the Catholic Church banned all trans healthcare across its sprawl

This has been happening since November of last year, when this vote took place, but no one is talking about it. The rehabilitation of the image of the papacy through Pope Leo is killing me, it’s still the goddamn Catholic Church. You do not gotta hand it to them.

instead of “this person made good art so they can’t be a bad person” try looking at it like this: “this person made art so they can’t be a good person”

[infectiouspiss]

"i could never live like that" well maybe you'll have to because this happened overnight. yeah you heard me i was the most able bodied man in the world but then one morning bam i woke up disabled. yeah you could have that too. there's no cure either you'll just wake up one morning and now you have to live like me
