I bought my son a chemistry kit because he says he wants to be a scientist like me. 🥹 When he saw it, he said he needs a lab coat and goggles before he could use it. $30 + an Amazon Prime order later and… welcome Dez, Kindergarten chemist 🥰 #BlackInChemRollCall #BlackInChem

@JodiJean70 @waunarac1 @DefiyantlyFree …and then they will charge consumers more for the shoes because the labor cost was higher.

@JenLuvsReviews Women, disabled people, LGBTQ, people who have been convicted of felonies (whether they’re guilty or not)…

@TherealCANDIACE For me, it’s the fact that she’s made it very clear that she doesn’t like Karen yet she sat quietly and listened to Karen explain the same thing you did. Every time you or Wendy started speaking, she screwed up her face. The proof is literally written on her face.

@Taylaaasimone I don’t see anything wrong with this tweet. Why all the backlash?!

@breadascientist @UMBCChemistry Congratulations!!

My mantra these days is “I’m not for everyone”. Letting the people pleaser in me die has been challenging yet rewarding. Once I stopped caring how people feel about me, I experienced a freedom like never before.
