A good letter. Again, I’d prefer maybe they channel one of America’s greatest generals and simply reply: “Nuts”.

As in, “you can go ahead and gargle bofa deez nuts”

Email you do not expect to get from a co PI when working on a new submission:

“I just made up the pre intervention data.”

If you think universities knuckling under is surprising, you’re a fool.

Senior administration has been glutted with federally-guaranteed student loan money (that’s the cash cow) for decades and doesn’t want the spigot squelched.

You drown in debt, they line their pockets.

Why is no one talking about the absolutely fucking obvious intention behind the deployment of federalized troops to America’s cities?

They are mustering to intimidate and suppress the vote in 2026. They will be dragging brown people out of polling places, doing violence, to disrupt the Blue Wave.

If she feels this was as an individual? I laud her. Work as hard as you can, and I hope it fulfills you and you achieve your dreams.

But fuck back off with this specious generalization of your richly diverse generation. Most of the ones I know bitch about being in the lab at 11pm on a Sunday.

Adding insult to injury, one of these stories is about sourcing samples from kosher slaughterhouses, and now I’m hungry again.

Sitting in an endless academic event. The open bar has closed. The speakers have all told stories.

I kind of care that they’re obviously the kind of entitled bottom who think they have the right to dictate exactly how they like to be topped.

Sorry, slut. You’ll take what I give you and say thank you.

The crazy thing is all of us liberals DON'T CARE that Mike Johnson and Lindsey Graham are gay.

What we DO care about is how they both actively vote for legislation that hurts the LGBTQ community.
