Raise your hand if you realized how staggeringly incompetent, idiotic, infantile, impulsive, and irresponsible Trump would turn out to be.

You guys should know by now that my faculty mentor is fucking amazing. So today I was expressing my frustration at a manuscript I’m wrapping up for submission to a journal. How I hated being at the point where I was like, “You know what? Fuck it. Fuck this paper. I’m running a regression for robustness and then I’m fucking done.” How I hated just ignoring the parts that I thought could be better.

His response: “I know how you feel. The person who starts writing the paper is never the same as the person who finishes it. And I’m always disappointed in that first guy. But that’s okay because it means you’ve grown since then.”

I thought some of you may need to hear that as much as I did.
