Went to Japan recently and already miss these:
#5. Self-cleaning, seat-heating, washlet-spraying toilets—exactly like South Park portrayed.
#19. Public transportation that takes you anywhere within a 2-min walk.
#37. Convenience stores… but really, NO Euclidean zoning!

I participated in the UVA Grad Thesis Slam earlier this year to spread knowledge about Shigella. Posting the recording here to make it more contagious—

Thanks for adopting me @KlebClub for the photo! Feeling very warmly to have met old friends @MGoBacteria and @CL_Holmes!
And still stranded at airport.

Great @GordonConf for #KlebClub! Safe travels to all, especially those dealing with flight delays and cancellations!

@Alicia_MV_ @ContamClub That's definitely a possibility! I'm not a fungi expert but I think they started off looking like very ordinary bacterial colonies--white, round, and nothing remarkable and then after a few days they developed this distinct morphology.

So I swabbed my phone and streaked on LB plate to make a demo for high schoolers. Something cool grew on it. Are they “Noodlococcus”? @ContamClub

[Yuang Sun @SunMicrobe]

@ContamClub Not planing doing that currently but I think I might save a frozen stock just in case!

@Ashikai Yes in CN it does say black sun. Btw, the translation of that paragraph about Dain is quite obscuring.

It’s the Year of the Rabbit, which is also our lab @AgaisseLab ‘s favorite animal. Here I drew a bunny. Happy lunar new year 🧧!

“American chocolate bad bc it tastes like vomit” ended up being the conclusion of my stats class mini-project.

Hopefully the instructors are not adamant American chocolate lovers.

Few people know how big my PhD program is.
