I think if you put a lock or keypad on a public restroom then it's not "public," actually
Doubly so for """"accessible"""" restrooms. (heck idk how that's even allowed under the ADA)
I appreciate your unisex restrooms but today's gender is "I am semiverbal and incapable of starting a conversation about my bodily functions with your resting-murderfaced minimum-wage cashier"

I'm realizing that all the work I put into writing essays in English classes in high school weren't so I could use it in a future career, but so I can write convincing metas for my current brainrot

working in research definitely gives people this sense of mystique about what you do, until they overhear you whingeing about how your new field (psychology) has way more salami slicing than your old field (neuroscience) and you have to give them a horror deep-dive into how academia works.

THIS IS A PERSONAL POST
The grammar roundtable got accepted. Looks like I will have to sit in front of a bunch of strangers and discuss a topic I know next to nothing about with two people I also don't know well and try to answer whatever unpredictable questions the audience might throw at us.
I tried to explain to the professor who's heading this up that I don't actually know anything, but she was all "the other students are in the same boat, we're going to practice a lot, does that make you feel better :) :) :)" and I wanted to say that I hadn't come for reassurance, just trying to manage expectations. That's still a lot of pressure.
It will probably be okay, but I can't say I'm looking forward to this.
