The joy/ torture of passing by See's Candies every day and going through the caramel cloud as someone who can't have dairy 😞

So glad that fireworks started at 9am for some reason! To those neighbors setting off fireworks, thank you for showing me how great my dogs' ears are, and how little you care about your neighbors traumatized by explosions and war.

jk, fuck your fireworks

Comparing my hard copy of the 4th edition of Kandel's Principles of Neural Science (published in 2000) to my digital 6th edition (published in 2021), it's amazing to see how far neuroscience has come in 21 years and how much we've learned

Hello @danirabaiotti.bsky.social, neuroscience PhD student here! Just joined and would like to join the What's Science feed if possible!

For me that's up there with shows/movies where a character is written to have multiple PhDs as a way to signal that they are really, really smart.
TV show character just said, in a quiet emotional moment, “As a neuroscientist, I know everything about the brain, [but not much about the heart].”

Lol sorry, “I know everything about the brain” is the LAST thing a neuroscientist would ever say. Absolute ducking last.

Shortly after college a white coworker harassed me for weeks after hearing I went to Brown, asking to see my writing and grades. All because her nephew, who got a "great" SAT score and went to a fancy school, didn't get in.

Without affirmative action, who will they blame when they get rejected?

Starting my month-long competency exam today, looking forward to my slow slide into insanity!

"She went to the boats with this calf, so she preferred to stop the boats rather than keeping her baby safe,"

I'm not a marine biologist, but I don't see how her attacking the boats means she was neglecting her baby. What if she wanted to be a working mom?
Gladis news: one of the juvenile orcas that has been attacking boats is White Gladis's child, who she would bring along with her to attack boats when it was a NEWBORN. she raised her baby to sink boats FROM BIRTH
White Gladis the orca may have been pregnant when she started attacking boats
White Gladis was so hellbent on stopping boats in the Strait of Gibraltar that she engaged in attacks instead of protecting her newborn calf.
