Fucking antivaxx parents

Types of biologists

Zoologist - a huge ass nerd who wanted to learn about mammals but now is in absolute ecstasy when seeing a worm

Microbiologist - haven't seen sunlight in 4 years, resistant to bad smells, despises being outside

Botanist - secretly waits for you to ask them about what's that plant, lives through the herb life aesthetics

Plant physiologist - is tired from telling everyone they're not a botanist, neglected lab child no one wants to accept into the lab community

Ecologist - just wanted to be in the nature and now is crying over their statistical analysis

Physiologist - wants to recruit you for their research, bitches about hormones

Hydrobiologist - just chilling, sometimes goes on boat trips

Molecular biologist - puts different liquids in centrifuge for 5 hours and drinks coffee at that time and does it every day

Toxicologist - tells everyone they can poison you but really just finds out different ways how plastic is going to kill us all

Neuroscientist - that one girl you knew in highschool who was very quiet but now is still quiet runs a studyblr and posts anatomical drawings of brains

Forensic scientist - huge fan of Stephen King, still kind of questioning their life choices

Biotechnologist - the corporate scientist, we don't talk about them in here

Bioinformatician - can tell you about your dna and code a program for you

Geneticist - exactly what you would expect from people who started out with a dude looking at peas for a long time, in hate/love long term relationship with gel electrophoresis

Biochemist - laughs about inorganic chemists, ignores lab safety while working with concentrated acids of pH 2

[Insert overly specific field] scientist - bitching about how no one ever knows the thing they're studying

Coming into a fandom late

This is the Lucky Ace. Reblog to recieve a wad of cash that is oddly specific to your current needs.

I will never not share this when I come across it.

So after days of pleading with other countries to spred awareness about the current situation in Serbia, a tweet with a video showing police brutality got spread:

And a lot of the responses were:

Apparently only problems worth talking about are those of first-world countries. And it seems that to a lot of people Europe will always remain just England, France, Germany and Italy. And let all of us living in small countries oppresed by totalitarian regimes rot ig.

I am sick of this selective activism.

And Fuck America.

Dr. Salima Ikram talks about cemeteries at Amarna (Akhetaten).

“When the master faces external difficulties, he seeks a way to get through them inwardly, rather than externally. In short, he readies his mind to withstand the shock. No, let me restate that. Without rushing to ready itself, his mind is always positioned, so that his inner self will not be disturbed. He has already prepared his mind so that no matter the misery or the fate, he could still be happy. Therefore, he has no need to seek a solution in the external world. His corporeal defenselessness, which appears so precarious, actually has little effect on his spirit.”
