I feel like all these posts where people splash around a lot of mercury is like my personal version of the people mixing cleaning products in their toilets in an attempt to inadvertently poison themselves. Every time I see one I feel like there's a better world out there somewhere where we're not skiddling in toxic shit for clicks.

Yes, the people filming it are probably experienced in handling mercury and know how to keep themselves safe, but it feels very... unnecessary.

Honestly, the longer I teach science the more I feel like some demonstrations and experiments are just wasteful in terms of materials or disposal and that we should be driving science study at the bottom end to influence a future in science where people have a greater awareness of the macro scale effects of experiments and we see science move as a whole towards mimicking nature.

But then I remember we are now in the phase of "home invasion as TikTok fodder" and I realise my dream may not be one that others share

System Collapse, ch. 3, p. 39: "I saw I had four private messages waiting from Arada, Amena, Overse, and Pin-Lee. I can’t do that right now. Pretending I’m fine for Mensah was hard enough."

8, 165: "Then he sent me a note back: So, you may not know this, but I read your letter to Dr. Mensah, the one you sent when you left Port FreeCommerce. I think you’re absolutely the right person to write this. I can’t handle that right now so I’m just going to archive it for later."

10, 212: "As I led the humans into the hangar, the contact with AdaCol2 started to drop. I sent, End session, acknowledge. It sent back, End session. There was a pause, then: Be safe. I can’t deal with that right now."

I need us all to be more urgently concerned with the current state of journalism.

sometimes I forget that my experience has been. um. not 'your experiences are not universal' vibes but more like 'your experiences are EXTREMELY atypical'

consider: mad genius who's also a very kind and lonely old man

actually adores children and connects with them better than most people because they are both openly candid, creative and curious

struggles with the asexual conundrum of wanting a spouse and offspring but ultimately Sucking So Much Ass at building intimacy with another person he skipped that part altogether and mad scienced his way into a family

"The average person will not care if trans people exist in the same spaces as them," and, "some of the most powerful people are of the opinion that trans people must be separated from society, thus, it's important to not stop your allyship with 'I don't care'" are both true.

It is good that so many cis people don't care enough about who is trans and who isn't, that isn't solely what will save us. It's important to stop people in power from affecting the lives of trans people, from preventing them from pushing us out of every space and opportunity they can.

shaking crying laughing imagine if Private Thoughts y/n had an embarrassing moments,,, like idk if they wore a skirt and accidentally had some of it tucked into the underwear after going to the restroom then realized before putting it back nicely and mentally glad no one saw this,,,, or for pants the butt seams cracking and letting out the view of whatever is under that they wear (heh) before they run to ramshackle getting a sewing kit because we know damn well the crow bastard didn’t give them the budget for two pair of pants, and is also relieved no one saw this cartoon worthy shit

then one day they randomly hear Jade’s horny thoughts about this one fucking day,,he was actually here!! hahaha *y/n slams head into dumpster out of shame and every other emotion related x10*

(..what if blackmail material idk random 3 AM rambling)

They'll never be safe as long as Jade Leech is around 😔 It's like Rook 2.0 with this mf, he's got a collage dedicated to you and you bet your ass this scenario is a pic on his wall. You should thank the Seven that he gets his own room in third year, otherwise Floyd would be privy to your most mortifying moments as well. And he's not gonna spare your feelings to make you like him.

At this point my dream job is sorta like being your surgeon, your proctor, your helicopter. You know, just doing something along the lines of pumping out the slaughtermatic sounds to keep you alive. Maybe even breaking into a system failure for the masses or anti-matter for the master plan. Just since I have previous work experience in being louder than God’s revolver and twice as shiny.
