Thanks! I have an interview soon, so things are moving along. Just took a little longer than expected. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

It's crickets. I just want to graduate on time and it's not looking good for me. Rural location makes everything harder and I might be in panic mode

The BSW field placement has begun. Guess who hasn't had a single response? The director wants to start setting up interviews by the end of September, which is 5 days from now. I'm contacting any organization that might take me so is the FP director. .

I've been mostly quiet on here because it's summer break and I'm reading for pleasure as much as possible. Don't have a lot of time for personal reading during my courses, so I'm making up for it during summer break. Totally worth it.

If you're heading to a protest tomorrow, it's important to know your rights. Consult this information from the ACLU.

Be peaceful. Be safe. Be careful. Be strong.

This representative is right but Moses Mike and the rest of the right wing doesn't like when they use the Bible against them.

Here's your morning dose of cuteness. These fox kits had so much energy as they ripped around the hillside just before bedtime. For mom's sake, I hope they tuckered themselves out! #wildlife #foxes

Many American voters are likely to excessively overcorrect from 2024-2025 to look for honest, authentic, effective, consistent communicators who donโ€™t rely on slogans and platitudes in 2026-28. They arenโ€™t plentiful.

Prepping for a week in the city so my husband can attend a work conference. I have an appointment close to the hotel one day. The other four days will be dedicated to lounging by the pool, reading for fun and mid-day napping.

You canโ€™t say criminals donโ€™t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Being sick for over a week and trying to keep up with school deadlines while barely being able to function means I have no idea what's happening in the world. I'm behind on pretty much every aspect of daily life. I'm feeling better today, so there's hope.

INCREDIBLE Ruling!

Judge Reyes just ruled that transgender people have served honorably in the military, judges Trumps trans military ban - which states trans people are inherently dishonorable - as unconstitutional and motivated by animus.

Trans military members may continue to serve.

The sandwich I ordered for dinner was awful and my professor gave me zeros on two assignments that aren't even due yet. Can't make the sandwich better, but will definitely email the professor to see what's going on.

I'm taking this as a sign to tune out and work on my embroidery project.

I'm retaking a a class I dropped last spring. This class was the catalyst for my ADHD evaluation and diagnosis. I'm not looking forward to taking the class again, but I am hoping it will be a little easier. At the very least, I'd like to cry less while doing assignments this time around.

There have been people less than helpful in my journey here. I wanted to acknowledge those too, bc I know I am not unique in this experience.
No thank you to the physics study assoc that made me sing songs about how women couldn't study physics without sleeping with the professor, the day I stepped into university life. No thank you to the 5th year physics student that decided to assign me a stripper name within the first minute of meeting me in the physics coffee corner in my first year. No thank you to the technician that was responsible for onboarding me on the use of the cluster in my third year who raised his eyebrows and asked me if that meant I was some sort of computer girl. No thank you to the senior researcher that sent me utterly inappropriate texts after a conference, then proceeded to apologise months later by telling me they had not been meant for me anyway so no hard feelings remain hopefully And no thank you to him for attending every conference I've been to since. No thank you to the people who told me that it was surprising that I was doing a PhD since I was a girl. No thank you to the man who mistook me for a coffee lady at a conference, and after having to correct him two times that I did not work there, responded with you should consider it. No thank you to the researcher that asked me what I was wearing underneath my outfit during a conference. No thank you to the physicist who declared to a room full of other physicists that biologists don't know how to design an experiment. No thank you to the people who have called me scary instead of strong and intimidating instead of intelligent.
And finally, no thank you to the exec board of the TU Delft, whose knee-jerk reaction to being held up a mirror about the social safety at the university, was to sue the party holding up the mirror instead of looking at the problems they highlighted.
... You have made me feel like I do not belong in science & I cannot forgive you for that.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: โ€œSystematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.โ€
