Why has this been cropped so badly that not just the artist credits but a key part of the image is removed??! It's Buddy Gator by the way.

It's apparently $3 adjusted for inflation.

Their office is within walking distance of me. I should egg their window or something.

I had an experiment to test a hypothesis that our target molecule was causing maturation in cancerous blast cells. Long story short I was in charge of culturing a few dozen different testing conditions, commandeered an entire incubator for a month, spent 4 hours in the morning and 4 in the afternoon changing the media, and it all proved that; no, the hypothesis wasn't correct.

And my God had I wished I didn't need to wait for trypsin.

Good times.

The pride event I can think of here in Vancouver falls in August anyway so I don't think this would even be a big deal. Plus I learned a bit about Canadian history having just moved here. Thanks!

The paper includes images of the patient and specified it was bilateral.

I'm surprised that after a master's degree and a year now of working in a teaching lab that I haven't seen an example of all of these. But a new term starts in September and I'm holding out hope!

“The tooth is a really ideal structure for holding a focusing element in place,” Moloney said. “It’s hard, it’s rigid, it survives in poor environments, and the body accepts it because it’s part of its own.” From this article.

I thought he banned edging?

Might want to see a doctor about that.

I have not yet encountered a Canadian who says "zi" the way I do. I've worked at schools here with ages from 12 to 22 and all of the students have said "zed" as well as every teacher and co-workers I've had.

I think I get enough micro plastics in my body thank you very much.

Yeah, the sets of 3 and the emdashes make it very clear.

I work in a teaching lab and we use candle lighter versions of these for students to light their Bunsen burners. They're pretty reliable for that purpose. Way better than the flint and steel strikers that my previous position used.

I was going home from work and about to take the escalator down when the staff told us the station was closed and casually said there was a bomb. It's always something at that station.

I've been using Floorp for a couple of months now. It's been fine. It's another Firefox fork. And IronFox on my phone.

Sick, I'm already halfway.

To be fair, this is a shit post.

I'm intrigued by what the commotion for DMSO was. As a researcher for pharmaceutical science, DMSO was just "the thing that dissolved everything" to me. Which I guess is pretty remarkable. I'm just curious what was written about it in the same publication where Asimov predicted hovercars and automated kitchens.

Here in Vancouver we've had like a week of below zero temperatures this entire season. It's been a very warm winter.
