@kacarter2016 I was a post doc and then staff at a National Lab until recently. Staff Scientists/PIs were solidly a mix of both. I do think the a PD there beforehand is easier

@profLisaE I start with local buy nothing Facebook groups, then move to local thrift stores (generally not goodwill, as they throw away a LOT). If it’s particularly nice and I’m feeling motivated I’ll sell on Poshmark, but my go to is to just give it to someone who needs it.

@Darchmare @AlynQuasar @LaxBeck @AlissaAzar I’m in tri cities. Our pride event was well attended and great, but overall, the area is regressing quickly.

Wait, so gun control laws aren’t going to help prevent shootings but laws against abortion are supposed to stop abortions?

@ShreyastaS @AcademicChatter I made >$75k/year as a STEM postdoc in the US. In less than 18 months I saved enough to purchase a home. Don’t be fooled into thinking being in poverty with a PhD is acceptable. There are other options.

In 2022, more children have been killed in school shootings than police officers have been shot in the line of duty.

@spleonard1 PNNL post doc salaries are >$75k, which is actually even better pay adjusted for COL.

@profLisaE The only time a wire transfer isn’t suspicious

@Kris_Koskela Why would the owners care about the credit score of the buyers? If a buyer is pre approved for a loan, the credit score does not impact the seller in any way. (Credit scores are pretty racist though 😬😬😬)

@MattHartleChem And also I like your joke :)

[Dr. Andrea Steiger @andksteiger]

@MattHartleChem Wow I am impressed that you have a non-anonymous Reddit account!

[Dr. Andrea Steiger @andksteiger]

@Kris_Koskela You’ll thank yourself later if you watch that lifestyle creep 😉

[Dr. Andrea Steiger @andksteiger]

@Kris_Koskela Whaaaaat wow I’m so honored!!!!!
