In case I forgot to mention it, I recently got ordained. So if you were thinking you needed a sparkly entertaining emcee (or band) who could also get you wed, I'm HERE.

A literal day-in-science snapshot: using a cheap digital microscope to see if it'd be better for doing and teaching mouse surgeries than a traditional stereoscope. The wire on the left is about the diameter of a jugular, while the tip on the right is about that of a carotid. Should work!

Just finished the F1 recap on YouTube and this was suggested...the longer you look at this, the better it gets.

Taking frame and art measurements for gifts and decor, including these D&D suggestive beauts by @valentinebarker.com with a very familiar model...

I got to teach physiology dressed as Ms. Frizzle and take the sweetest Ginny the Superkitty out to trick or treat twice in a week, so Halloween kicked ass as far as I’m concerned. ♥️

First animated crush without saying your age

This was basically the animated version of The Mummy for me where I found every human main character attractive

I'm on the hunt for a specific thing. I tried Mercari, Poshmark, even Google Lens, and might be SOL. It's this hoodie, from Where The Wild Things Are collection from Target, in a bigger size. Huddy has outgrown his but keeps trying to wear it. 4T-5T. Any ideas?

Who wore it better?

Hi, I'm Jess in PDX, and my research question is, "If you injure your kidneys, even short term, what does that mean for your future pregnancies, your postnatal health, and your kids' future health?" I'm also a #scicomm enthusiast, emcee, and musician with @pdxbroadsides.bsky.social.

I got you

4 years ago today, I posted this photo on FB with a note: "Sometimes you just need a little plasma for a project and you're the closest subject."

I was 8 weeks pregnant and had told almost no one. I was so scared of jinxing it. Saved the RBCs and plasma for an upcoming exosome project.

I have lab meeting today so I made a little graphic about it (thanks Canva and @hollyannam.bsky.social!). It took five minutes and made me laugh, so we're going to call that time well spent.

Spoiler: it is barely the tip of the iceberg of why I am tired.

A glorious weekend. Got to witness my friend of 30 years get married to someone who loves her so completely in a beautiful area outside Vegas, then spent the weekend with friends of ours for more than 20 years. A lot of love and gratitude.
