A really cool initiative from @cenmag x.com/cenmag/status/13827414…

We’re looking for suggestions for a story that will feature LGBTQ chemists from history and LGBTQ chemists who’ve passed more recently! Please tell us about your queer chemistry heroes from history: ow.ly/UIhs50EpCBy #LGBTinSTEM #QueerInSTEM #STEMdiversity

I’m the first scientist in my immediate family. The first to graduate college and the first to get a PhD in STEM. I am honored to #partner with @PBS to help promote a revealing and impactful documentary about women in STEM called ‘Picture a Scientist’.

Another great reason not to use detergent pods, in addition to the fact that somehow every time a detergent pod is used in the Bryn Mawr washing machines at least one piece of clothing ends up with a sticky lump of pod coating on it
Polyvinyl alcohol detergent pod coatings dissolve in the washing machine, but new research suggests the polymer evades degradation by wastewater treatment. #ACSSpring2021 #PVA ow.ly/a0M050EqGlj

Maybe this isn't a universal experience but this account is currently run by a bitter senior who has had one too many pairs of jeans end up with a patch of PVA branded into them after an ill-advised purchase of pods

Are you sad and angry about the surge in anti-Asian violence? Wondering if there’s something anti-racist you can do? One idea: learn how pronounce Asian names! It doesn’t have to be perfect. Just try, and it will make a difference to your Asian friends and people you meet. (1/8)
