i love every time one of my posts gets popular because i have chronically low blood pressure and the dumbass braindead comments some people leave are a great help for that <3
i've had like a 26% yield for one of the reactions for synthesis of my ligand molecule and i made a change to the procedure at my PI's suggestion that tripled my yield (!!!) and gave the product higher purity than before
however this change to the reaction procedure also makes the reaction mixture smell like dead fish that's been left in the sun for four days. i almost wish this change didn't work because i'm going to have to spend the next 2 years making this horrible smelling intermediate product. i hate it here
So homophobic that all it takes to fuck up my hip is to have it adducted slightly and then held there for under a minute AND for me to feel no indication this is happening until afterward
@heygutlcss / riff sent: “ i know, i know. you asked me to leave you alone. but that was two weeks ago, okay? and i haven’t heard from you. you aren’t answering my texts, you aren’t even reading them. nobody’s seen or heard from you, and… and now i just want to know that you’re okay. so please, open your door, and let me make sure that you’re safe, will you? “( i'm assuming it's cause the judge found out? not sure how modern would work for them but i am intrigued!)
he wasn’t supposed to be there. the moment her guardian practically threw her into that place, johanna waited, rocking back and forth on her heels, for anthony. for anthony who she knew would find her. for anthony who would save her from this personal hell. during the more-than limited visiting hours, she waited with her stomach full of fire for one of the nurses to peek into the room she was assigned to with all the other girls they told her were like her, and wait for her to say that she had a visitor. it would be anthony. it would be anthony and johanna would nearly skip to the little jail-like area where the visitors were allowed and he would be there. when the nurse finally popped her head into the room during visiting hours and johanna followed her to that little area, it was not anthony.
it was him.
anthony told her about him once. anthony told her everything. on the day of their high school graduation, he showed her a picture he had saved on his phone and told her all about the friend he made in new york city. anthony mentioned him before that but johanna actually got a name that day. riff. not the name on his birth certificate. anthony shrugged and told her that’s what everyone called him. he told her that riff was going to come to their wedding. johanna watched as he ordered the plane ticket for him. ordering that plane ticket meant it was real. that they were going to get married.
johanna slid into the chair across from riff, staring back at him with the eyes of a wounded deer. this is anthony’s friend, she told herself in order to try to calm herself down. he probably just found her first and he would tell her that anthony is on his way. it didn’t prevent her leg from bouncing up and down though.
he told her the worst news of her life. he told her anthony was dead. she didn’t believe him. not until he showed her proof of the accident that killed him. not until he told her about how he called her name in the hospital room and the barber and the baker he told her about were at his side when he took his final breath. johanna didn’t believe him but once she could, she knew it was the judge who was behind it.
the clock on the wall ticked away at the minutes as the thoughts in her head screamed louder than any of the patients in the building ever could. if anthony was dead, the plan she came up with in the many months she was there was over. until she looked back up at riff who was somehow still sitting in front of her.
will you marry me? johanna asked him. it was the only way she figured out how to escape with anthony. the only people who could get her released from the hospital were either her legal guardian who put her here or her spouse. her directions were direct and whispered. if he could get a marriage license and the necessary paperwork, she already asked one of the girls to sign as a witness ( at the coast of having to help her hide her food for a week and a half ) and a man who previously became an officiant for his sister’s wedding. they only had to hope that he was himself the day riff came back as a visitor.
when he returned, the papers were signed swiftly. the guards nodded at riff to leave. a few days felt like all those months she already waited but by the end, a nurse gave her the clothes she came in back and johanna was free to leave. with her husband.
they stayed under the radar for months. longer than johanna expected it to be. they fought. they misunderstood each other. for the first time in her entire life, she got a phone. just so they could keep track of each other. even all the fighting between the two of them was too good to be true.
it was another fight. the walls were too suffocating. the air was too thick to breath. johanna did the one thing she tried to do for her entire life. run away. she wasn’t leaving for good. she simply needed some fresh air. apparently, the need for some fresh air could lead to a black car pulling up beside her and the window rolled down to reveal the face of the man she hated most. the next thing she knew, johanna was back in her old bedroom.
her forehead leans against the door, pausing to speak until after he was done. she couldn’t read his texts. the judge took her phone and smashed it on the table right in front of her. one of the pieces flew against her skin. there’s still a red mark from it on her wrist. it wasn’t supposed to be two weeks ( is that how long it’s been? ). it wasn’t even supposed to be two hours. why he’s here, she doesn’t understand.
❝ how did you find it? here? ❞ johanna raises her voice just loud enough for riff to hear on the other side of the door. ❝ you’re lucky the judge isn’t here, you know that right? if he were here . . . you’d be . . . you’d be anthony. ❞ the last part is whispered to herself. anthony tried to help her. he tried to make plans for them to run away once they were at university. anthony is dead.
❝ i can’t open it up. it’s locked. ❞ he made sure she saw it when he locked the door behind him. ❝ he, um, he looked through all the records. that’s how he found the marriage license and things. it was under barker. maybe he also went through my phone - i don’t know. ❞ using the door as a guide, she slides down to her knees. ❝ he stalked me. i wasn’t smart enough so he found me. ❞ she pauses. ❝ i think he’s . . . well, he’s out. maybe he’s trying to track you down. you married me. ❞ in a smaller voice, johanna continues, ❝ i’m sorry. it wasn’t supposed to be two weeks. ❞
The idea of living with his stepfather still didn't seem good to Jimmy, an 18-year-old boy who is skinny, nerdy, gay and a fan of comics, Even though Jimmy had already been living with his stepfather for 3 days, he still didn't like the idea but he had to get used to it, but how would he do it? His stepbrother, Jax, did not help the situation to improve either, Jax almost always made fun of him for being very skinny and short and told him that he would never be a real man and that frustrated Jimmy.
But Jimmy wasn't the typical guy who would cry over insults and that kind of thing, maybe just maybe with the days everything would change, so the days went by until Jimmy came up with an idea So that his brother would not continue making fun of him, he began to exercise at home, like squats, push-ups and all that.
One day when Jimmy finished exercising he went to shower as he always did, he grabbed his towel, his boxers and went straight to the shower, Once he was there he opened the shower, whenever Jimmy felt the water he closed his eyes to feel peace and tranquility, So since she had her eyes closed she grabbed a shampoo, his stepbrother's shampoo, he started pouring some shampoo into her hair and started bathing.
Once the shampoo made contact with his skin, Jimmy began to feel strange and a little hot, as he continued bathing, his feet began to lengthen and look more masculine, A little hair began to appear on his feet as more changes were on the way.
His once thin, hairless legs began to fill with muscle as his texture began to look more masculine, His thighs began to grow in size as they now looked like two soccer balls, Hair began to appear everywhere, now his legs looked like those of a soccer player adducting to the gym.
His bag began to grow and get thicker as it went from 5 centimeters to a mighty 11 centimeters, A forest of pubic hair sprouted on his bag, giving him a more masculine appearance.
His torso began to lengthen while his shoulders grew in size, two large pecs began to emerge while an 8-pack of worked abs began to appear on his stomach, On his pectorals, which now looked like chests due to their size, a layer of hair began to grow on his chest.
His arms also began to lengthen as muscle began to appear on them, biceps and quads They came out in his arms, it seemed like he was having a great time working his muscles in the gym a layer of black hair also began to appear on these, His hands, which were delicate and pretty, began to expand while his fingers lengthened and their texture made way for masculinity.
His back filled with muscles as he became bigger and bigger.
His voice became 5 tones lower,His Adam's apple began to bulge more on his neck, while his once brown hair began to turn black While he now had a cuter, more masculine haircut, his face began to creak, All the baby fat he had began to oxidize to give way to a sharp, sharp jaw, his lips filled out and became more kissable while his eyes grew a bit larger, His nose became cute while a small earring appeared in his ear, once Jimmy washed his hair well, his memories began to fade, A small fever began to burn in his body as he inexplicably cum and with that his memories left him giving way to new memories.
Now he was no longer Jimmy, he was James, Jax's younger brother, James was 22 while Jax was 23, James was well known in college for being the captain of the football team, for his muscles, and for being good in bed and he was also heterosexual.
once James got out of the shower he put on his black Calvin Klein boxers while his pubic hair was sticking out a little, he put on his favorite gold chain while grabbing his cell phone and taking a photo for his Instagram.
Please! How do you get your cake like that! It’s so perfect 😣. Please, I’m struggling at the gym! 😭🤣
Hi ☺️ to be honest with you big part of how my butt looks is about genetics, my mum has a big one too 😁 but working out helps a ton and it looks way better, like the shape overall is nicer
I usually do rdls, squats, hip abduction/adduction, hyperextensions, leg press and hamstrings curls on leg days. I don't have a specific glute workout, I'm trying to add other exercises like Bulgarian splits or step ups or hip thrusts (which I do sometimes but not that often), lunges...
And eat lots of protein!!!!!!!!!!! You want to grow those muscles 💪💪💪 of course rest and sleep well and if you think you aren't progressing as you would like to maybe ask for help and try some specific glute growth programs
I struggle too with my upper body training 😩 you're not alone
Sometimes we focus so much on the results we can see that we don't realise how far we've come and how much stronger we are 💪😎
And it's definitely not a perfect cake, what I post is the pictures I feel good about so as you see from the side looks juicier and prettier
