Grammatical conundrum


Read. You have 30 minutes until your class starts? Read a paper. 45 minute bus ride? Read a paper. 60 minutes while your PCR is in the thermocycler? Read a paper. Seminar speaker sucks? Hope you brought a paper!

โ€œItโ€™s not just that theyโ€™re unprepared, theyโ€™re almost damaged.โ€ This is harsh but, I fear, true. Iโ€™m seeing it up close and personal.

As academic setbacks from the pandemic follow students to college, engineering and biology majors are struggling to grasp fractions and exponents. Colleges are searching for solutions. apnews.com/article/collegโ€ฆ

Happy 75th birthday Bob Langer. We have known you for 53 years and we have all learned from you, learned about helping people and solving problems. As you are turning 75 years old, you just hit 1,500 papers, 1,350 patents, 400,000 citations and h=315. Incredible achievements.

I wish somebody had explained this to me years ago.

Methane = CH4. There are no oxygen atoms in methane. Nevertheless, if some scientist engineered an organism that could defy the laws of nature and produce O2 from CH4, the result would be a moon-sizes bomb. CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O + BOOM!

With so many billionaires about, why not a private prize of $10 million for the scientist who genetically creates an O2 producing organism that will thrive in the frigid, methane lakes of Titan?

If an unjust war in Afghanistan didnโ€™t break the U.S. & giving $2 tril dollar tax cut to wealthy didnโ€™t bankrupt the U.S., why does media assume healthcare will bankrupt us? Only when we talk abt lifting the poor & low wealth does this concept of the nation being bankrupt arise.

One time I stepped out of the shower and there was this Bernie Bro standing there, completely buck naked, just staring at me all creepy like. Then I turned away from the mirror and he was gone. Weird.

Share your most harrowing encounter with a toxic Bernie Bro. Mine was when one tried to convince me that poverty is a social condition invented by the aristocracy in order to guarantee a limitless stock of cheap labor around the world.
