Like, how are you, not just as a greeting.
I feel like I’ve been internally screaming for several weeks straight.
How are you actually doing today?

Been sleeping the majority of the last 36 hours in between emptying my stomach, so not too hot. I really should not go into work today but I probably will anyway.

I currently work as a postdoc in biomedical research, so my line of work was directly in the line of fire of recent Trump administration nonsense… Not great.
Beyond this though, I’m just impressed at how almost delusional my boss and some of my lab members has been. Lab PI/group leaders are responsible for bringing in grants, yet they don’t seem to even care about the fact that almost all grant reviews are paused (and some of their grants are due early Feb!)… Not to mention they seem almost happy about RFK and Bhattacharya; I do not approve of such behavior as a researcher… Especially since another student in the lab is fucking suffering from long COVID-induced chronic fatigue. I don’t understand how could some other ppl in the lab be so insensitive
To be fair, I’ve been essentially “fired” from the lab anyway. Not actually fired, but was on an 1-year contract and PI refused to renew (and it’s more difficult to fire someone than not renewing contract in Illinois law anyway). Pretty shitty behavior but I guess I should have expected a newer PI to not know how to properly lead a lab… Partly due to that, I’ve started applying for jobs in Europe two months ago and have just recently started getting interviews. All of them are scheduled early morning for me, I’m not a morning person, and at least one or two have been somewhat disrespectful so… At least I’m hoping to get at least one offer I hope?
Also am worried about selling some large possessions (furniture, hobbyist items) since I’m probably leaving the US soon. So a bit stressed recently between work and personal matters
All in all, I’m… surprisingly calm for the amount of bullshit I need to deal with. No ideal why. Maybe it’s just the power of video games lol

(Champagne problems warning) Was goddamn great until I pulled a calf muscle playing soccer tonight and now probably can’t ski on Friday and Monday, despite our mountains FINALLY getting a nice dump.
Admittedly, my problems are nothing compared to the children who mined the cobalt for my phone but godfuckingdamnit.

I feel fine. Sure, there’s lots of stuff to do, but it’s ok. Just one thing at a time…

Up and down. Actually lots of things are falling into place, and a few “end points reached” are proving to be… just new starting points.
What to say, need to get my knee in order tough. After last marathon it is still giving me issues and i am fed up to wait and want to go back running…

Pretty good. Just testing out an obliterated version of deepseek r1. Hopefully its a drop in replacement for my current ai engine.

I’m good. Trying to figure out which remote part of the world I’d like to visit, maybe stay there.

Wondering how long it will take for the world to start world war 3 and which fascist regime were going to be fighting.

I’m doing great! Thank you for asking. I recently woke up from a nap, and now I’m hungry! Though I’m not entirely sure what it is I want to eat… How are you? 😃
hedge_lord@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I am very hungry and dehydrated but I cannot leave my bed

Really anxious. Reading too much news
I have two kids in college and have always been optimistic about their future, but the next couple years are critical to forming the world they emerge as adults into. It’s not encouraging
