I remember reading about a chemistry teacher found dead one morning. he had a habit of consuming the laboratory's ethanol after hours, and the night before had accidentally poured himself a glass of methanol

Methanol: not even once

Even if i was modeling I don't think I could do this.

What's wrong with a little piss chug every here and there? Asking for a friend.

Nothing as long as it's not out of a beaker :)

I've done this. Chemistry equipment is good for bongs too.

I themed the wet bar in my basement as a laboratory. There's a drying rack on the wall that I use to store 15 mL beakers that I use a shot glasses. It's fun. I've also found that a hot plate stirer with a thermometer probe and a vacuum filtration setup makes the best clarified butter easy as a snap!

Whenever I toast with beakers, I yell out "TO SCIENCE!"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Unless you're drinking port, in which case you legally have to yell "TO INDUSTRY!"

Ahhhh, this feels so wrong :((((

I'm just glad she's wearing earings and makeup like a good female.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Have we communally decided where the proper line should be drawn between lifestyle acceptance, and calling out stereotypes in media? I get what you're insinuating, but some women do actually seem to enjoy wearing earrings. You could just as notably call out the fact that she has long hair.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Some women also commit suicide by drinking lethal chemicals, but that doesn't mean this picture makes sense.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Ya, that...... that's my point...

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Women doing science? Preposterous.

...my wife's a mad scientist: well, she's a senior scientist and she's mad pretty often...

Way to demonstrate the proper usage of PPE there!
