Being invited to peer-review for a journal after a desk rejection at the same journal: "So you're telling me you don't trust me when i say 'this paper' is good enough for your journal, but you trust me when i say 'that paper' is good enough for your journal?"

Why only have equal contribution statements for authors that contributed the most? 🤔 Author 1, Author 2, Author 3(*), Author 4(*), Author 5 (*) These authors contributed equally to this work. Both barely looked at the paper.

"Us versus Them" is the most dangerous concept that exists in humankind. Dehumanize the other side and you can justify anything. At the end of the day every war is just humans killing humans for territory.

One of my lab members just showed me compelling evidence that I suggested contradictory changes in different revisions of a text. No more struggling with impostor syndrome, I have now become a true group leader 😂

"You have been here for X years, why don't you speak our language already?" Don't ask this to your immigrant colleagues. 😤 It is not your fault you don't understand how much harder their life is. But to have an idea, just take all your daily struggles and multiply by 10-fold.
