"You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?"

(No pressure lol)

context:

AND THEN IT DID.

Hell yeah I do! Come on in and sit down, Tumblr User Phrenic-A! Here’s something to drink (hands you uhhhhh whatever drink you imagine in your mind right now. Poof. Magic. I know, I’m so talented.)

You also seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Also I like your username, and its explanation in your bio! That's cool as hell.

What’s your biggest pet peeve when reading science literature?

when they use acronyms that are not widely used and refuse to actually state what those acronyms stand for

[i’m bored, ask me random shit on anon]

Pop quiz: What is it?

The blue-green cone is a 34-gauge needle, seen under an electron microscope.

Funny thing about needle gauges: the larger the number, the smaller (= thinner) the needle. The smallest needle recommended to give an infant an intramuscular injection is 25-gauge (x). The smallest (= thinnest) lancet available for a diabetes finger-stick is 33-gauge. So this is a very, very fine needle, finer than a human hair.

The red part? It's 16 human cells, forming what I think is called a blastula.

But in some states, it's a recognized human person with more rights than you have.

Unless, of course, it's actually cat cells or cow cells...

You said you're bored at work so here I am. Biggest pet peeve in movies?

Hello! It’s 100% the 6 phd scientist who is an expert in 40 fields. I have other ones too, but it really comes down to framing science as an individualist endeavor of a chosen few vs a mass of exhausted hyper specialists.

Hey! So for your story, is it framed as a romance, buddy story, coming of age, social criticism, etc? Not exactly what genre but what's the emotional arc look like?

It will probably be framed as a romance/mystery, although that might be too much for a short story. So many details just keep moving in my head. But I know two characters fall in love and I know someone dies. I’m worried it is too much for a short story. 

Thanks!! 

Ask me about my WIP!!
