If you have a certain trigger that I don’t tag, PLEASE tell me so I can tag it!

things that happened to me when i was a woman in STEM:

  • an advisor humiliated me in front of an entire lab group because of a call I made in his place when he wouldn't reply to my e-mails for months
  • he later delegated part of my master's thesis work to a 19-year old male undergrad without my approval
  • a male scientist at a NASA conference looked me up and down and asked when i was graduating and if i was open to a job at his company. right before inquiring what my ethnicity was because i "looked exotic"
  • a random male member of the public began talking over me and my female advisor, an oceanographer with a pHD and decades of experience, saying he knew more about oceanography than us

things that have happened to me since becoming a man in STEM:

  • being asked consistently for advice on projects despite being completely new to a position
  • male colleagues approaching me to drop candid information regarding our partners / higher ups that I was not privy to before
  • lenience toward my work in a way I haven't experienced before. incredible understanding when I need to take time off to care for my family.
  • conference rooms go silent when I start talking. no side chatter. I get a baseline level of attention and focus from people that's very unfamiliar and genuinely difficult for me to wrap my head around.

like. yes some PI's will still be assholes regardless of the gender of their subordinates but, I've lived this transition. misogyny in STEM is killing women's careers, and trans men can and do experience male privilege.

i actually dont think there's anything funnier than people watching a show or whatever bc they heard it allegedly had gay people in it then getting upset when it includes incredibly normal genre specific tropes that they personally dont like, like maybe you should have checked that before you watched it king and then they get mad at the show for being the show that it is instead of embracing it for what it is. like I'm so sorry that axe murderer 30000 had axe murderers in it and didnt have a happy ending and was really violent but i do think there are some context clues around it that could have let you pick up on that

im so sorry to say this but "has queer characters" is not a genre and doesnt tell me anything about the media actually

watching 4chan die as a tumblr user is like. its like watching another titanic hit another iceberg and sink faster right in front of the already sinking titanic that youre on

didn’t realize till now that i posted this on the actual anniversary of the titanic sinking. happy monument to hubris day, i guess

Recently discovered, fully by accident, that the trick to feeling like you have more time in the day is to actually do shit with the time that's there, which seems fake and wrong and it's frankly infuriating that it works >:|

This is picking up a bit so I thought I'd mention that, while this trick does work, it is regrettably the hardest fucking thing in the world to do :T

if you’re happy for literally any reason no matter how “small” or “stupid” you’re winning in this world as far as I can tell

caring for little plants? old video game? a cat you love? a silly tv show? Isn’t it great when people know what causes them joy and they embrace it?

Spread this video

spread this video for awareness.

to me it's counter intuitive that little person and dwarf are more acceptable so it's really helpful to know.

also spread this video to appreciate the fucking killer mustache on that one guy in the suit. holy shit, it's like a work of art.
