grad school is weirdly psychologically straining. idk how to explain it. But my advice is basically. If you're considering something drastic, also consider things that are less drastic. If you're considering quitting, then also consider threatening to quit. If you're considering suicide, consider quitting. Whatever drastic thing you're consdiering because you're about to fail a class or a candidacy exam, also consider just failing and continuing anyway. You know? It's not waht you wanted, but if you're already considering something outside of the sapce of stuff you wanted, consider all the stuff less drastic than it too

my grad program got more manageable once I sat down with my PI and threatened to quit

2 years later

i'm happier

lot's of changes, and i'm glad i never deleted this blog when i stopped being super active on it. i thought things would never get better, but now i have proof that i myself have gotten better.

shadowed doctors, realized it wasn't what I thought

learned about clinical pharmacy, I'm in pharm school now... retrospectively I had a good amount of sporadic notes buried in my planning notes since 2021ish telling myself to consider pharm instead of med, but i didnt actually listen to myself until 2025. wouldve saved a lot of pain if I had swallowed my pride earlier.

i'm in a good relationship now, the previous one i had been mentioning was so silly in retrospect

i'm still currently procrastinating studying, so that hasn't changed :)

I just want to be normal

I’m convinced there’s 2 types of ppl: ones that use their full name everywhere and ones who have 3 different urls on 3 different sites because why not be 3 different ppl if given the chance

How do you manage "resistant hypertension"? Try nephrologist Dr. Blaise Abramovitz's SMASHMOUTH mnemonic:

S-pironolactone--the best 4th medication (after a diuretic, an ACEi/ARB, and a CCB) M-edication regimen--ideally 1 diuretic (chlorthalidone) + 2 other meds A-dherence--it's not resistant hypertension if the patient is non-compliant S-econdary etiologies--the younger the patient, the more you should think about this H-ome BP measurements--needed to diagnose both masked hypertension and white-coat hypertension M-edications that increase BP--NSAIDs, OCPs, stimulants, calcineurin inhibitors, etc. O-SA--untreated sleep apnea can increase BP 12/8mmHg during the day and 15/12mmHg at night U-nderdosing--it's typically better to maximize the dose of one medication before adding another one T-able salt--aim for a dietary sodium intake of <2gm/day H-erbal supplements--things like licorice and St. John's Wort can also increased BP#TeachingRounds, #FOAMed, #HTN, #nephrology, #pharmacology, #cardiology, #primarycare

I messed up on my fuckign homework

I am simply too queer for chemistry

[aakarshspeaks]

I still remember the other day I said, "Well Pentane, has 5 carbons and no hydrogens right? It's only 5 single bonded carbons?" With full confidence and now it is cracking me up and I am laughing on it since last 10 mins 😭😭😭

coherent states this, coherent states that - what about the incoherent states, huh? where's the love for incoherence?

[iantimony]

post brought to you by Incoherent Quantum States gang. if we're going to all the trouble of creating a simple harmonic oscillator in the quantum regime why do we care about the One Specific State of that which just happens to kinda resemble the classical solution for a simple harmonic oscillator. we don't care about classical mechanics now. fuck off

Fondly remembering the time that a cat owner casually entered their calico Maine Coon in a cat fancier’s competition and the judges lost their minds because the cat was 1) male and 2) able to bear children

[weaver-z]

Anyway here’s Dawntreader Texas Calboy as a silly lil kitten

[weaver-z]

Here’s an excerpt from one of the articles about the drama his entry caused among the Cat Fanciers that I thought was very earnest and sweet <3

And also some of Calboy’s children!

He is fearfully and wonderfully made!

I was about to say he would technically be an intersex king (not because I dislike the concept of trans cats, just bc intersex rep is sorely needed too) but I did some more reading on this icon and actually found the article OP referenced.

ALT

He’s not your usual male calico kitty as it turns out. That’s already cool and rare, but he’s even cooler and rarer than that!

Calboy is a chimera!! Which is really fucking cool of you ask me. The chances of having a male calico this way are slim to none, but the mad lad still exists! What an icon. I would die for Calboy.

Originally I was looking for an adult picture of Calboy

(He’s so pretty 🥰)

But I also found a source for the article screenshotted above! And folks it’s WILD. It’s an incredibly interesting read if you happen to love hearing about niche hobby drama. It’s also just a fantastically written article!

The parts I find the most interesting are about how conservative the cat fanciers association is. This isn’t even all of the parts that talk about that.

People are so mad about this cat spefically because he has female colors. An animal who couldn’t choose how it was born. This is happening in Texas by the way. Hm. I wonder how they treat trans people over there?
