Stop telling women that we should find ourselves beautiful and that we should love ourselves when you are standing right there, judging us on how our knees look in short skirts and how prominent our boobs are in a sweater and how much makeup we are or are not wearing.

Instead of us working harder on “love your body” and “find your inner beauty”, the rest of the world should be working harder on “stop telling women their bodies are a shameful place to live but that if they’re strong enough, they will learn to embrace that shame.”

This is my body. It’s not “beautiful”. I don’t “love it”. I don’t have to. I don’t have to have any strong feelings about my body. And whatever feelings I do have are not somehow invalid if they’re not glowing reviews.

a reminder from your friendly neighborhood professor: 

the crappy paper that you actually turn in will always get a higher grade than the zero you’ll get for the potentially flawless paper that exists only in your head because you panicked and couldn’t bear to write something that you’d convinced yourself wasn’t good enough

I CANNOT REBLOG THIS HARD ENOUGH. Oh please please please understand that something is always better than nothing.

A few months back, a small twitter hashtag got kind of crazy - #overlyhonestmethods

Its a hashtag full of scientists admitting shortcuts in research, along with the daily face palms and annoyances of a scientific lifestyle. Science is hard, yo. 

I decided to steal some of the more popular tweets from the trending hashtag along with some random images of scientists from Google image search and combine them. This is the result. it works, I think. 

The full album can be found here: http://imgur.com/a/x77kL

Dissertation inspiration.

for all the glorious scientists in my life

^^^^^^^^^^^^ THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS! *dies*
