No #metabolomics LC-MS run to worry about this evening. Time to relax. 🌺😁

Happy Friday, tweeps. 🌺

At least once a day.

Bird of paradise palm flower down the street.

A cup of tea and a tour of the garden is the perfect end to a very busy day. 🌼🌺🏵️🌸

Mrs Pook is at the garden centre and messaged me to ask if we should add this to our collection. I'm going to go with "yes". 🌺

Hello spiky friend.

It's that time of year when the garden's full of these little guys. 🦟🪳

How can you have an "ultrashort chain"? You can't have anything beyond a short chain that can still be described as a chain. That's why we have short chain fatty acids and not ultrashort chain fatty acids. This attempt to increment jargon for impact is so toxic and unnecessary.

Recent developments from the garden. 🌺🌺

I had the same thought and I've been tinkering with the chromatography, to try and spread the peaks out, and the AGC, to try and moderate the ion counts. The green plot is AGC and the blue one is injection time. Turns out injection time never gets above 20ms and is often effectively zero. Amazing.

This is amazing. No matter what I set my AGC to my ion trapping time never exceeds 50ms and at times is effectively zero! There's so many ions going into the C-Trap at 13 mins that it's can't do its job and I'm seeing e10 ion counts.

Do you mean this data? How stupid do you have to be to base a lawsuit on denying this?

Good morning, blue sky. 😁🌺🌺

I am fortunate enough to live in one of the most beautiful places on the planet. Yesterday we explored the #Piha Blowhole, which lead to this stunning beach between Kaiwhare Point and Takatū Head.

I love the diversity of these Gazanias at #Piha.

Back at the Mother-in-law's to pick up some furniture. Taking a couple of minutes to admire the garden. 🌻🏵️🌸🌼

Was he male? ✔️
Did he commit an act of violence? ✔️
Male violence? ✔️

Your pretence that words don't have commonly accepted meanings and that meaning can vary depending on who uses them is just so petulantly infantile.

You have no mastery over me.

Good morning, tweeps. Not a lot of hibiscus joy around at the moment as the team seems to be still waking up from winter. Our good old double O'Brien can usually be relied on, but even this stalwart is only putting out a handful of small, semi-developed flowers like this. 🌺
