OK #chemsky folks, this just keeps getting more bizarre source: emergency.mit.net
Offices across campus have been responding to a reported hazardous material incident involving a single individual in a chemistry laboratory. The Institute became aware of the matter after the individual, a graduate student, self-reported to a local emergency room and claimed to have synthesized dimethyl mercury, a compound that is not authorized as part of their research program. Emerging information calls into question whether this compound was in fact synthesized. We are also able to disclose, with the student’s permission, that while the student remains under medical supervision, their initial blood test result, which was received today, shows no sign of exposure to mercury.

thread of poetry & art about cats, which I will periodically add to. here is the first entry, an old favourite!
the photo contains a complete transcription of a poem entitled "From the Point of View of a Cat" which can be found online if you would like to read in full. It begins:

This is my Man. I am not afraid of him. He is very strong, for he eats a great deal; he is an Eater of All Things. What are you eating? Give me some! He is not beautiful, for he has no fur.

a meme. In the first panel, Spongebob presents a closed box labelled "Ol' reliable." In the second panel, the case pops open to reveal the words "Fieser's workup" cloaked in a halo of shimmering light
