Frequently disgruntled brown man and working scientist. I have stories. And thoughts. Sometimes they make sense.

Tony Soprano is in this picture and he probably didn't like it.

Also need the attachment that shovels a full stack of omega-3 and tyrosine capsules down the gullet.

"Theranostics" is heating up in nuclear medicine and I'm dreading the day some new grifter puts on a turtleneck and take a selfie with a tiny molecular model in their hands.

There's great, secure jobs in academia. Just that no one tells you about them, and people who get those positions do so with a combo of hidden networks, luck and very specialized knowledge. Or by having the ability to get drunk with people while talking science.

I used to be part of a lab that got so toxically chaotic, 1/3 of the former members are still vague posting/blogging about stuff that happened there. All of us left 4+ years ago.

A hiddent advantage of having a science career that has so far been 50% benchwork and 50% computing/data stuff is dealing with two kinds of carpal tunnel.

One of these days, I would like to see a #dopamine influencer go all in and post a real dopamine depletion and remapping drug plan. Cycles of reserpine followed by amphetamine-fueled binges.

Myself and the minders of the great scanning machines continue to toil to keep them operational, but today, a visitor sent by the queen of rad arrived. Short of stature but cunning of tongue, he tells me that the reign of the nukem king are numbered...

Politics in my academic department reaching Game of Thrones levels... The king used to be a brash leader that lifted the lands of Nukemres to fortune and glory. But careless philandering was his downfall as the vultures from the throne of Rad looked to reclaim the rich fiefdom.
