Not great at adulting, awkwardly social. Sometimes, think I am funny. Am very much into tactical voting, democracy is a journey to where we want to go, even if the bus we catch only takes us a ways there.

A fun part of simple homemade carbon quantum dots is the desire to experiment with various compounds because it is a simple procedure. Mix 0.1g of each material, three drops of water, and heat it in a microwave oven. Here are our three mixtures that produced bright luminescence. 🧪🍎🥽

At the Scottish Labour conference in Glasgow, Mr Murray said the economy had “grown so poorly over the last 14 years” while the Tories have been in power that “not only are people worse off, not only is the tax burden on course to be the highest in 70 years, but public services are on their knees”.
