Why did they make agarose gel so yummy looking. Like lychee jelly :(
#i want to eat it i bet the texture would be fantastic and it would probably? be sweet? maybe? because it's a sugar but sadly it is covered#in buffer solution#actually i looked it up you can eat agarose... and it seems other people share my hunger for the gel electrophoresis#im reading an article now about how they get it but dont eat the gels you run for labs#wait... maybe you can eat the buffer...#well it wouls be gross anyway. who would like to sponsor me to buy a gel electrophoresis machine so that i can make food grade agarose gels#and then use sugar water as a buffer and like. blueberry flarvored sugar water in as the dna samples and then i eat it c:#op

if we should protect children because they are vunerable, this means you would protect cruel children who bullies people who different than them then. the children who responsible to trauma for someone else's entire years
You're assuming that "protecting" children is the same as absolving them of responsibility and that's not what I said. All children are vulnerable, because all children are children; they don't come out of the womb with a perfectly working moral compass anymore than they come out of it waiting to hurt people--they're vulnerable because their understanding of the world is entirely at the mercy of what we, as adults, consistently tell them and show them. Children behaving cruelly aren't exempt from that--they learn that cruelty from somewhere, or someone. Your job, as the adult, is to make sure they understand that it's unacceptable so it will not happen again--but your job is also to ask why someone that young is behaving this way to begin with, so you can ensure they become better.
"Protecting" kids is not ignoring when they hurt or torment others, it's not refusing to teach them consequences or right from wrong, it's not "zero tolerance" policies in schools that treat a child being bullied and the child bullying them as equal instigators, and it's certainly not protecting them from recognizing, and atoning for, the pain they have caused someone else. You don't have to make peace with the now-adults who hurt you when you both were kids, but you cannot let the horrors of your own childhood impact how you treat or respond to the children living theirs around you right now, either.
You don't protect kids so they can get a free pass for bullying or tormenting another child. You protect them because kids are impulsive, emotionally reactive, and profoundly social (which means deeply impressionable) human beings who are still learning & processing insane amounts of information every day about what it means to be alive, to be alive as yourself, to be alive as yourself with other people. Protecting them is realising that you can't isolate the responsibility of a 10 year old from the bigger responsibility of the literal grown adults around them, adults who are in charge of teaching them about the world and how to behave in it. Whether you have children of your own in the future or not is completely irrelevant to this; we all become those adults eventually--no matter what happened to us as kids.
#ask#Anonymous#i dont want to keep repeating myself on this but we're all carrying fucked up and traumatizing childhoods to some extent and if you want to#spare another child going through the same thing the solution is not to hate on children bc they didnt ask to be born any more than the res#of us did. but they're here now and what are you going to tell them while they are?#what kind of an adult and what kind of a compass are you going to become for them during the time they're learning about being alive?#and if you decide its not your problem the minute this child says or does something fucked up and that they're a lost cause at the age of 8#bc their impulse control is shitty and their empathy & understanding is still buffering then that is part of the problem. they learn what#they're doing is okay and then they keep doing it--to other kids and years later other adults. our world is fucked up and makes fucked up#people and if you have it in your ability to limit that damage at its most formative and dangerous point then why wouldn't you?#notes from elsewhere

how are you alive
this isn't hate btw I'm just looking at the fact that you drank pure virus
I'm just cackling that my virus-drinking chaos has been noticed by people outside my immediate friend group. I reiterate that it was a bacteriophage - these viruses are specialized to infect bacteria, and animal cells - ie human - are simply so different that bacteriophages don't even recognize them as targets. In fact, it's a hot topic of study to weaponize bacteriophages for the sake of combatting bacterial infections. Already there have been numerous studies and trials regarding injecting a bunch of viruses into people who are sick to cure them - there was a huge case study in 2017, and interest has exploded since then especially.
What I'm saying is that my impulsive decision was actually a scientific breakthrough I promise. Please let me into your laboratory please please please
#honestly the biggest concern was the bacteriophage buffer rather than the phages themselves#like i said. they target prokaryotes. we're eukaryotes. we're basically just passing by one another yknow#but since viruses - like lots of stuff - find surviving in distilled water to be tricky we used a particular solution#to make sure they stayed intact and stable in the samples#but yeah it was fine. i knew i'd be fine.#however.#it is FUNNY.#and FOR SCIENCE.#i know how viruses taste now.#and besides if a bacteriophage managed to infect a human cell that would also be a huge breakthrough for scientific understanding#so it's a win-win no matter the outcome!#(except for my sense of taste. eugh.)#qna

drew a herring on my lab exam paper today. hope the teacher likes it
#tumblr user silverfished when the fish is silver#i also fucked up my buffer solution twice but i got it the 3rd time#im afraid i fucked up one of my serratia marcescens streak plates but whatever. i dont even care#herring#<- bc very few others use this tag. its my tag tbh#herringposting#silverfishing

Ok SO I've got some fishes I would like to share from the aquarium we went to a couple weeks ago. First here is my very very favorite fish. I have no idea what it was, but if I was naming it, it would be "patchwork quilt fish" because it looks like somebody just jammed 3 fish together. (Also here's a clownfish.)

And then there's THIS nightmare horror from the deep which apepared to have one red mouth and like 6 white eyes. I couldn't get a very good picture of this monster but trust me, it looks like it's about to start sucking out your blood while hypnotizing you with its 6 white eyes.

I have a request for a MacGyverism (maybe gone wrong? in a whumpy way? or maybe just a fact?) related to your chemistry homework. (Ok I literally have no idea what type of chemistry you're studying maybe this is impossilble in which case just.... whatever Mac thing strikes you.)
that fish just went thrifting and is showing off its outfit!! and ofc The Horrors™️
prompts
“Shit, shit-”
“Hoss-”
“Uh-” Mac shakes his head, having momentarily forgotten that he had his earpiece in. “How much time can you buy me?”
“I got three bullets and six assholes. Probably not as much as you need.”
“Can you at least keep them occupied?”
“I’ll do my best,” Jack mutters back. “What’s goin’ on?”
Mac swallows, glad that Jack can’t see what he’s seeing. “The casing is starting to erode.”
“What the hell does that mean?”
“It means that whatever container Moore was keeping the virus in, he chose the wrong one.”
“Can you fix it?”
“Temporarily, sure.”
“Good enough for me.”
Mac gives a nod to himself. He needs chemicals, and very specific ones. If the container starts leaking, which it inevitably will, he needs it to leak into an acid. The only problem is that he won’t be able to keep the solution acidic for long enough. At best, it’ll take a hazmat team hours to arrive.
Mac exhales, eyes running up and down the shelves of cleaning supplies. Too many of them are bases, but finally, his eyes settle on the vinegar.
Unfortunately, that’s only half the battle. Before he can use it for any type of temporary containment, he needs to create its conjugate base to keep the solution at the same pH.
“Water,” Mac mumbles.
“What’s that?”
“New plan. Let the rest of the guards do whatever they want. I need you to find me some water bottles.” Mac looks back down at the canister, now blistering and looking more than ready to burst. “And Jack?”
“Yep?”
“Do it fast.”
#we're doing very boring things (sorry chemists) rn so this was more difficult than i expected haha#but the short story is that buffers are made and buffers are cool because they prevent solutions from easily changing pH#why would this help a virus in a leaking container? who fucking knows. not me that's for sure lmao#anyway the equation to find the ph of a buffer solution is: pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]). just yknow. if anyone needed it kjkfsdkjsfd#in which vi actually writes#asks#rosieblogstuff#we love rosieblogstuff#macgyver#macgyver 2016#drabbles#prompts#technically buffers were from last unit's stuff (but we're still getting review questions from it)#right now we're doing things like finding the most acidic proton in a molecule and i just could not figure out why or how mac would manage#to do that in the field lol

like i think that we really really really need to actually gain the social literacy and compassion to understand that. not tipping your server isn’t praxis, but the fact that it’s expected that the customer pay the wage of the server also doesn’t mean that the customer (often also stiffed and a victim of wage theft) isn’t obligated to do so, and that while this is within our own economic system a great injustice and act of violence that needs to be rectified, it is in fact not the greatest injustice in the world and seeing people comparing getting screamed at for war crimes to not being tipped demonstrates a drastic lack of any sense of proportion. this is me speaking as both a service worker and someone engaged in organizing. let me be absolutely clear that I am not saying that not tipping your server is praxis. if you are able to tip i think that you should. i also think that “it’s the social contract in america to tip your server” needs to be read as “the structure has been built so that resisting it is tantamount to being a class traitor, and there are no winners in this situation”. i make less than 1k a month. tipping at 15% is straight up not viable all of the time if i want to pay rent. that’s not praxis, that’s me trying to keep a roof over my head, same as the service worker who i can’t always tip. so much analysis of this matter on social media tends to boil down to brute utilitarianism that causes further fragementation among the working class, and not for unjust reasons.
but just as not tipping my server isn’t praxis, tipping my server also isn’t praxis. not because it doesn’t help the individual (it does) but because it functionally validates the extant system in which the customer directly pays the wages. especially in the digital age: whereas cash tips are often considered nontaxable income, digital tips are administered as directly taxable income by the employer. when tips are paid out as wages i think it’s a little unfair to consider them to be “gratuities”.
again: not tipping isn’t praxis, but i wonder often about how many people who parrot this point are engaged in labour organizing or support in any way other than tipping. everyone deserves to be paid for their labour. but likewise, putting the onus on the working class customer to do so doesn’t actually help anyone except for the employer.
if you’re getting pissed at other working-class people for not tipping high numbers, especially impoverished and/or marginalized people, i hope that you are also engaged in literally any form at all, no matter how intense or dedicated, to any kind of action or organization that supports increasing minimum wage and shifting this responsibility from the customer to the employer (i.e. working class to owning class).
#vent of sorts#i keep seeing that post about ''not tipping your server isn't praxis'' with the addition of#''i was a server who got yelled at by a european for being american at an american tourist memorial for 9/11 because of the iraq war''#and again i say this in a sense that isn't meant to diminish the legitimate trauma of service work#trauma in a very genuine sense#(brief reminder that this is what the term ''emotional labour'' was coined to describe is being expected to regulate and perform emotions#for your job but only being paid minimum wage because the only ''labour'' you're doing is physical/mental and keeping a smile while being#berated isn't ''labour'')#but without directly comparing and weighing traumas and experiences in order to invalidate another#i'm so tired of seeing ''not tipping your server doesn't help anyone'' specifically being backed up by the idea#that tipping and paying into the tipping model (no pun intended) is a morally neutral or net-positive action#without actually considering the widespread consequences of tipping culture as a whole on labour wages and employee rights#of course not tipping isn't going to solve anything#nothing is solved on an individualist level#but the idea that NOT tipping is a non-solution that individuals take#being refuted by the idea that tipping as a buffer that individuals engage in#rather than it leading into any discussion about organizing#is absolutely fucking infuriating#because believe me i WANT to tip servers i WANT to make sure that everyone is paid#but if i walk into a local brewpub and buy a beer at the isolated beer shop next door by a till worker i am prompted to tip as if it were#a full service establishment and transaction#and i think that is evidence enough that tipping is not a ''thank you'' to your server but rather the employer offloading the expectation#of paying their employees proper wages onto the customer#anyways as ever the solution isn't individual action but collective organizing and community support#if you're going to tip then tip in cash and if you're not going to tip then be as kind as possible#and if you're acting as if tipping your server is the ONLY morally correct action in this situation then please#look around at your local community organizations and labour organizations and housing organizations instead of yelling online at people#who often are not being paid enough to be able to pay rent let alone pay another person's wages#mutual aid is great and important but i straight up don't consider it ''mutual aid'' if it's filtered through an employer's income

remind me not to stay up until midnight
#logging off for the day because the LAST thing my brain needs right now is to STIR this green goop cauldron (chuckle)#in my defense my adoptive uncle was over for game night and I always find it hard to wind down after getting hyped up for game night#but..... I should've gone to bed EARLIER. and then maybe got UP earlier. given myself a buffer time in the Morning instead of at Night#feel free to ignore me btw this is basically me talking to myself. strategizing. in the hopes of finding a solution#and reinforcing positive behavior (for myself AND for whoever's reading this. hopefully this is helpful not stressful <3)#Robin speaks#Robin processes emotions on main#even though the emotion is just t i r e d#I'm working on healthy behaviors! and I'm getting better at it!#if you take only two things from my personal mental health tag rambles I would like them to be:#A) it often takes time (YEARS) and a lot of intentional hard work for people to find out what works for their brain#and B) you can abide in God even in the midst of bad brain times.#anyway! goodbye!#got to go eat lunch!

yeah sure i went to work on 5 hrs of sleep but i was struck with inspiration so i have to do that now instead
#he has spoken#working on art for a few days from now and whoops#impulse control is absolute shit lately#i literally don't even have to do it#im working with a buffer for a reason#and yet i had some ideas#someone come hit me in the head until i go unconscious#only solution to get me to stop being stupid lol#it took me far too long to type this all out#sleep deprivation does not combo well with my inability to type

did you do control taste tests with distilled water, and virus-free pH buffer to compare the tastes?
I did not and I wish I had. It was more of a brief opportunity. Effectively a case study, not a full one with control groups and stuff
