It might be hard for them to find someone who is both fluent in english AND knows the field well enough to know vegetative electron microscopy is not a thing. Most universities have one general translation help service and science has a lot of field-specific weird terms.

Agreed! I’m finishing my one-and-only phd at the moment (hopefully) and feel completely done with academics.

How is that possible?? And why would anyone do two phds? I thought that was just a hollywood trope.

Again, I’m happy that worked for you but it is not true for everyone and no claim like “sugar bad, fat good” is ever going to help everyone get more healthy. I myself lost weight by increasing fiber and protein (so many lentils and beans) and decreasing unhealthy snacks. But take my pasta and bread and I will feel unhappy and unmotivated and not move a muscle all day.

This has lots of potatoes that are high in carbs, so I don’t think it’s keto. Also, everything is healthy in moderation (except stuff like smoking, alcohol) and unhealthy if you eat to much and the keto diet is definitely not for everyone, so be careful making those generalized claims.

I remember having to dissect a bunch of creatures in science class and everything was okay for me, including the pig brain (although skull was already halved for that one). But we had to do a grasshopper and the cute little face just looked at us and we couldn’t do it.

I chose to not have children mainly for the environment. My partner just doesn’t like the idea of having children. However, I know a lot of leftist people that have/want children.

I’m just happy that this semi-true fact led me to learn a whole lot about the nahuatl and their history!

I would love to see that!

Unoccupied land is otherwise called “nature” and is quite useful for a lot of things.

Where’s the garlic bread?

Know that it is very normal what you are feeling right now, to be hurt, sad, angry, confused and every other emotion. Hopefully a shared moment of grief will be organized. Go there, join in grief with your fellow students and give a hug to whoever needs it. It might not feel like it yet, but it will help.
