Real #introduction time. Hi I'm Dani, a medical lab scientist. I've been on the net since the '80s, so this isn't my first rodeo.
If you don't know what we do, we make doctors look smart. We do all the blood and body fluid testing — #chemistry, #hematology, #immunology, #bloodbank, #flowcytometry, etc. We are the jack of all lab trades.
In my previous life I was in #IT. I love all kinds of #music, #tech, #gaming, #cooking, #metadiscussion about games and media, #ethics, and #geopolitics. My guilty pleasure is #fanfiction.
I don't know if this is appropriate here...
Our sweet kitty Ash is going in for dental surgery December 19th to remove one (possibly more) painful resorption tooth lesions, which will cost between $1400 and $1900 (to be determined after he gets his x-rays to find out how many teeth are afflicted).
Any support is appreciated!

I signed up for c.s a week ago and still haven't gotten my invite. That's the main reason no one is adopting it. No one can get in unless they know people.

Thank you! We have such a massive shortage of blood and donations make such a huge difference!
NASA Wallops launch this morning, people! 5:50 AM ET (10:50 UTC). 90% Favorable weather for launch unless we get a wayward plane or boat, it looks good.

Anyone have a list of Ukraine OSINT folks that have made it over here yet? I need my regular dose of technicals (though they are so far past using techincals that I am in withdrawal, thank God).
I've got @osinttechnical. That's about it.
I've been calling it shitposting for, god, nearly 20 years, so it's kind of cemented that way in my brain.
Some of us need that kind of engagement or we look elsewhere. Different kinds of minds.
I'm 46 so it's not a Millennial / Gen Z thing. I need music on, something to read, Twitter or Discord on another device, maybe even a game going, too.

Lol did you see that the head weird nerd blocked the COO of the biggest marketing trade association that represents like 800 different brands? Like Jesus Christ.
@Pwnallthethings Other frustrations with this place:
- nobody is able to pay to insert "promoted" toots into my timeline
- nobody puts random cards into my timeline trying to entice me to follow people I don't care about
- nobody ever fills my timeline with random posts people I follow have liked
It's sooo frustrating to be shown only the things I ask to be shown instead of a bunch of random crap I don't care about!

Absolutely everywhere you're going to buy those from are going to be buying them in turn from someone who has drop shipped them from China. The cheapest way to get them is to buy straight off AliExpress and make sure you just buy stuff specifically for food.
