I have heard that one of my old coworkers now calls me "one of the most diligent scientists [they've] ever met" but they are still apparently unable to speak to me. Thanks, that really means a lot right now. :/

I wish I was less superlatively unlucky with jobs. I am really very boring and mostly concerned with tiny shrimp.

I think I'd prefer to live somewhere blue, so I don't have to get nervous about how long my hair is or how well I pass as cis, but I really did not like living in the NE and I don't think I want to bother trying to afford California as a single person right now. My options are truly fascinating.

apparently all the funny wingless flies I've been seeing in pumpkintown are females, because there are males now and they're just regular flies with wings and stuff. that's so weird, congratulations flies on your weird glowworm ultra-dimorphic lifestyle

Door to door insurance(?) saleswoman just appeared to try and offer roof inspections(?) because of the "big storm" we had earlier this year. So, funny story, we actually did not have even a single hurricane hit this year. It disturbs me greatly. Be gone.

The unfortunate reality of trying to create cool opportunities out of nothing, is that you inevitably fall short of being able to get everyone an opportunity who wants one, and people get upset with you. It's a bummer.
