The way even other biologists respond when you're open about what research involving rodent model systems entails is wild. I thought we all understood that this was part of the process?

The Severance subreddit is so full of insane takes but this one is just incredible honestly. Would kill for a post where someone tries to justify which nucleotide corresponds to woe etc

white nationalists doing "retvrn" posting about Papa Roach is insane but whats really wild is them imagining southern California was somehow a white ethnostate with no hispanics 25 years ago

Idk just in general nothing makes me feel as disconnected from other women as hearing about some of their feelings about infertility. I feel like an absolute asshole for this, and don't get me wrong I think that men who have strong feelings about Wanting Children are demons. But beyond the physical trauma of miscarriage and fertility treatments being hell on the body I just do not understand why this one way of failing to get what you want in life is treated as so uniquely upsetting.

I understand from a plot/narrative/themes perspective why Gemma's storyline was written the way it was on Severance and why Cold Harbor (the room) was what it was, but that part of this season still rubs me the wrong way. I get that infertility is something that some women genuinely struggle with, and that it's an easy way to give the evil pharma company a connection to the main characters, and a way to expose tensions in a marriage, but still. I just don't love that the writers reached for "what is the most painful experience in this woman's life" and arrived at an empty crib. Maybe I'll change my mind once Gemma's had a chance to exist apart from her relationship with Mark, I don't know.

I know that every boss is probably unreasonable in their own particular ways in every field, but it really does feel like scientists in particular lose part of their brain when they stop working at the bench and start running a lab.

i've been reading a lot of books about urban naturalism recently, and the one big thing they all talk about is how you HAVE to stop seeing nature as something that happens somewhere else. nature is not just charismatic megafauna and state parks and mountain ranges. nature is that abandoned lot that's growing native milkweed in it. nature is the murder of crows that lives in your block. nature is the moss growing on your roof and the dandelions growing in the sidewalk cracks and the song birds at your neighbor's birdfeeder. and you should care about it! you should notice it! that's YOUR nature!

It’s genuinely really really really important that you say it’s bad when a woman experiences abuse without opening it with disclaimers like “even though” “despite” “I don’t like her but”. That is not a game you should be playing. That’s not one you have to concede you don’t have to introduce the concept of “well she has Acceptable failings that means its still bad when abuse happens to her.” that opens the conversation to well she has Unacceptable failings so it’s okay that she’s abused and opening up arguments about what is an acceptable failing where it’s not okay that she’s abused and what is an unacceptable one so it’s okay that she’s abused. Not a time to split hairs not a time to divert the conversation.

I will never stop believing that there are actions and types of rhetoric that are morally unjustifiable no matter what ideology they're being deployed in defense of. Talking to leftists about this makes me feel like a scold or a weird centrist or something but I don't think I'm wrong.
