Not everything is for able-bodied people. Some are thoughtful enough to make a way for those who have reduced mobility to get their socks on. Never forget to appreciate the little things you CAN do, because putting your socks on can be a whole different world for someone else.

Raise your hand if you’re a scientist that’s ever been forced to use Henrietta Lacks’ (HeLa) cells in the lab 🙋🏾‍♀️ I cried. I said are there ANY other cells we can use? They said NO. Not for the protocol we were using. SO MANY scientific discoveries were made using her cells.

So the virus that causes COVID has the ability to hide from your immune system and mutate in different parts of your body. Places like your nervous system, gut, and more. So you'll have a negative PCR test and everything but your body is actually still being EFFED UP, BAD 😭😭

A big reason I’m sharing so much about what’s happening with me right now is because I didn’t hear these conversations happening before I got sick. It’s just people saying get vaxxed & boosted but people don’t talk about that you can do both of those things AND get LONG COVID 1/

Since I lost a significant percentage of my hearing from COVID, I’ve learned to be extremely unapologetic about telling people “I CANT HEAR YOU” 🫠 Im so glad I took that sign language course in college. I took it to talk to one of my friends not realizing I would need it for ME

For everyone telling me to lie and say my dog bites or make up some type of excuse: My dog doesn’t bite and I’m not going to lie for no reason. I don’t need to lie to make people comfortable.

Dude I am doing research on the melanin molecule and it makes me want to jump straight back into the lab. I had no idea we were considering it as a semiconductor for implantable bioelectronics to treat diseases like Parkinson's. This feels like WAKANDA 😭 No, THIS IS WAKANDA

#BlackintheIvory My first day of work someone from the chemistry department physically blocked me from getting my mail in the faculty mailroom. Threatened to call the police because they thought I was a student trying to steal mail. Didn't believe my faculty ID was real.

It was bad. At one point I was having six panic attacks a day. Before COVID I had never had a panic attack in my LIFE. I didn't even know what was happening. It wasn't triggered by anxiety. I would wake up and as soon as I opened my eyes my body would go into panic for hours 2/

An @Uber driver not only kept rolling my windows up after I’m rolling them down for ventilation, but he also told me “take your mask off, pretty ladies don’t need to wear masks” I’m not gonna lie, I thought about going to jail today but I instead I got out the car and walked.

Hey @Amtrak can y’all put some damn pads and tampons on the freaking trains? I know y’all budget is tight but I’m sure you’d rather spend it on sanitary products than having to bleach or replace the seats because we bled through them. Train trip 3 days 2 nights NO PADS or TAMPONS

Storytime: Over 100 years ago, a physician was treating a patient who could barely remember basic details of their own life. When the patient passed, the doctor examined the patients brain and found plaques and deformities all around the brain. 1/
