canceling plans is ok. changing your entire look is ok. chasing an ancient instinct to swim thousands of miles upstream to return to your natal waters just to reproduce once and die so that your carcass can sustain an entire ecosystem is ok. do whatever you need to do to cope.

Providing demographic data for NSF: Actually, I do wish to provide my gender, but your survey does not include nonbinary scientists. You are not accurately assessing diversity when you erase queer and transgender scientists. @ISNBS_ #QueerinSTEM

I held off in spending a chunk of my FSA, expecting costly dental work after not having dental insurance for 4 yrs. Turns out my teeth are in great shape and I paid $0 at the dentist! I have until the end of the month to spend my remaining FSA. So… What should I buy?

I didn’t think my pine allergies could be worse than literally living in Coconino NF but I was wrong! Wish I could be enjoying the nice weather but instead I’m wearing an N-95 inside my house, just brought my second air purifier home from the office, and have both on high 🙃
