Bone to pick: this girl being trash isn’t a hall pass to disparage universities (USC and SDSU in this article alone) that a lot of us worked hard to get into and get through. You don’t sound cool when you suggest these competitive schools are worthless; you sound like an elitisit. If your point is that education is…

Hey Lauren, I just want to chime in along with everyone else and let you know this is a really shitty post. Like, colossally shitty. I don’t even have any snark for you. Clinton won the popular vote, she was profoundly qualified, and she got shat on for being a woman who knows how to get shit done in a world dominated…

I read this not as satire of feminism but as satire of the Rosenberg Washington Post piece—that excusing an abhorrent position (child eating or anti-LGBTQ “morality clauses” in an employment contract) by saying “hey, but it’s great that a woman is doing something modern and non-traditional!” is ridiculous.

I’m actually a moldy house in New Orleans, so sure!

I’m actually Brad Pitt and it feels like you’re negging me. Well it worked. Will you go out with me?

I don’t really use twitter anymore but I followed a lot of funny people in college and every so often I just go look through all my “favorite” tweets and laugh.  I would be sad if that list went away!

“She was hiding under the covers, having bolted all the doors and windows. Her small appartment was empty.

Bruh.

While I generally agree with you about dudes coming in and posting braggadocious sex things, I sort of feel Masshole James has been around long enough that I don’t even side-eye his lecherously gay ways anymore. Maybe I’m just desensitized.

I know what these ladies are going through as I, too, have a third leg.

Yeah, it’s obviously not the same guy. I’m just saying look at him.

Is it possible for scientists to just suspend disbelief, let go, and enjoy Science Fiction that isn’t perfectly science-based? Or does having such a strong foundation in a STEM career make that difficult?

Hypothetically speaking let’s say your neighbors turn their (mufflerless, loud, horrible) Suburban on for hours at a time and let it idle while they go back inside and like, sleep. Are they running a meth lab in the back of their vehicle? If not, what other malfeasance might they be committing? (as I can think of no…

That podcast sounds awesome.

How much of science on TV is real? CSI? Bones? Breaking Bad? Any crime procedural?

P.s. who knew not commenting for like two years would get you put back in the grays? :(

Hey you guys! I’m a biochemistry PhD student who’s involved in a science writing blog. We’re trying to start an associated science podcast, and I need a bit of help.

That’s not correct. You don’t want to discourage white children from dressing up as Tiana or Jasmine. Because it’s good for white kids to look up to people of different races.

I am pretty sure the brides on SYTD are exactly the type of ghosts that keep opening doors and making noises when dead. Always looking for attention.
