A bit about myself: I’m a Professor in the chemistry Department at Simon Fraser University. My research focused on supramolecular chemistry, self-assembly, liquid crystals and photochemistry. I also post a lot of based on polarized optical microscopy:

@hal0 @Ten relatively productive work day done! Going to try some slow cooker experimenting, play a bit of an MMO and then hit the gym

@oolon It is so much more pleasant here so far. I don't need to be reminded every moment by trending topics or recommendations that people hate me for who I am.

One of the nicest things about Mastodon so far is not having a horrible little sidebar constantly reminding me that who I am as a person is up for debate by angry, hateful and bigoted older men and women who really just want to call me a pervert.

@brewnoir Thank you! She is really beginning to take after her mum too.

Oh. And!

Casually building on work that I did around 10 years ago before, and during, my PhD.

I'm quite amazed that things are still being published as a result of calculations that I did so long ago.

Happily, this is one of the projects where I actually properly structured my directories and input / output file names! Even the .cub files had informative names!

Hello Mastodon, this is my cat.

Her name is Scone.

Last night, she decided to start attacking a storage drawer viciously because she wanted to sit on top of a very specific old side bag that I own.

She has four random cardboard boxes in our home, all in varying states of being eaten. Her preferences are unique.

Scone is a wonderful hunter. The other day, we located in her trophy zone beneath a large chair in the study, the kitchen sponge that she had valiantly slain, thrown to the ground and brought to one of her hiding spots.

Even on LinkedIn, following professional only accounts, you seem to be two clicks away from an account with a rather masculine avatar opining about cancel culture, the necessity of a rather conservative variant of free speech and also very loudly stating that "the left" are evil.

Putting the left over sweets for trick or treaters in the emergency noodle box and then up high in the utility cupboard otherwise I WILL eat all of them

Flowers first feed pollen and nectar to wasp adults in exchange for (unwitting) pollination services. Then the fruit feeds insect larvae who, in turn, host the endoparasitoid wasp larvae.
