How much money do we think this saves the average taxpayer? One dollar, maybe two per year?

It’s been a wild few days of wind and rain around Washington, but then—boom—the mountain shows up and reminds us why it’s all worth it… 🗻😍

Our latest in cyclic polymer synthesis and uses now out in @ChemicalScience!
New paper out in @ChemicalScience! We used our modified polymer initiator to synthesize cyclic bottle brush polymers via graft-through REMP and tested their mechanical properties upon cross linking! Congrats @MatthewElardo, @amluw and @anapolymer ! doi.org/10.1039/D4SC06050D

Congrats to Dr. @SarahZeitler1! Thank you for saving my ass so many times in lab and providing me with spare pants when I needed in lab. Don’t know what I’ll do when that happens again! Good luck we will miss you!
Congrats to our first ever PhD from the Golder lab, Dr. @SarahZeitler1! 🎉🎉🎉 We will miss you and can’t wait to see what you’re up to in @CalPoly as Prof. Zeitler!

This week, 17 members of the WA House of Representatives sent a letter to President Cauce urging Admin to reach a "fair contract that reflects the prestige of UW among peer institutions as soon as possible" to avoid the disruption a strike would cause. uaw4121.org/wp-content/uploa…

Student evaluations are a great way to learn that you're the best teacher they ever had despite being the worst teacher in existence, and that you under, over, and appropriately prepare for each class.

this very distinct wing of the left that basically acts as a self-righteous, holier-than-thou online fun police is just incredibly exhausting. I'm sick of this never-ending race to be the most socially conscious. Are these people not exhausted?
