I’m a shark lover but have no idea what yall are talking about but it sounds so cool 😍

Sit by me, I'm not a medical person but I also love sharks

 

[chicandtoughness]

vampy bb how went your reading experiment last night? 😊

I picked up Brian Greene’s Until the End of Time again - he’s one of my fave science writers (first read Fabric of the Cosmos the summer before college and it made me be a physics major briefly before I nearly failed E&M). The book gave me a mini existential crisis but was a surprisingly nice way to wind down 🥰

I'm a zoo resident! I had some fish experience from externships during school and my specialty internship but no shark experience prior to residency.

So cool!!

Spoiler: Kindly observe these sharks

This is why I have an excellent stylist tbh. She makes sure my hair can handle things and then works magic like this!

 

[chicandtoughness]

(Hope you all get some good rest! Hang in there! <3)

DUDE. Season 1 was fairly believable but 8 minutes in to s2e1 and my fourth wall has been broken there's not a SINGLE med student or resident who would miss freaking TORSADES on EKG omg

Episode 5 and the MS4 doesn't recognize active TB in the lungs?! Like excuse me that's the first thing you learn to recognize on CXR?!

dude I feel this so hard 😭

My sister is a figure skater so I remember what that was like. Literally renting rink time eats up so much cost.

I'm a dancer (ballet mainly). Like tell me why a pair of shoes is $140 just so I can buy a new pair like 3 months later 😭

I didn’t know you had to rent the rinks??? Yikes!!

And reallll thankfully running shoes last longer. The thing that got me in Ironman training that snuck up on me was food though. I ate so god damn much hahhaha

 

[kitzsuna]

Currently, I’m into MTG. And I’ve been hyperfixating on creating some new commander decks and have spent Too much money on cards this month lol

I knit. Do you know how much non plastic yarn costs???? I also like buying yarn more than I like finishing projects so I also have way too much of it lol

You don't need to for purely recreational, you can definitely just go to free skates. But if you want to get any better you usually need lessons, and it's hard to have private lessons during free skate because it's so busy. So you're paying coach fees and then usually a fee to rent the ice as well (usually several coaches will do ice time at the same time so it's not the entire rink).

Ohhhhh no. I stopped playing MTG in the mid 2010s because it ate my budget. Thank god for Arena.

The fact that I can buy a sweater at Walmart for less than the the same amount of yarn from a craft store is insane

Your... empty bottle of wine only had a glass missing?? Perhaps OPEN bottle?

Also *hugs*

Thisssss. I had a phase where I really wanted to make my own clothes because #sustainability, but when I realized I'd need to spend an arm and a leg to make a sweater I was like... yeah. I get why people would rather buy the $25 one from TJ Maxx or Amazon instead.

Sooooo season 2 of fallout has had me bouncing off the walls (WITH NO ONE TO TALK TO ABOUT IT) and just so happens a secret lair drops with Lucy and the ghoul????? AND THERE ARE MORE DOGMEAT CARDS???


Soooo I ended up buying the secret lair, then spent a ton on individual cards trying to actually build Lucy and The Ghoul as commanders, and then I ended up buying the mothman set cause it seems fun 🤩

Crocheter (though I do dabble in knitting) with the same issue

 

[WildZoo]

And aerial is also a decently expensive hobby so...RIP

I’m part of a knit along that was free to sign up for but I need to buy the pattern and also yarn for it and I fear it will be more expensive than the paid classes

 

[GoSpursGo]

I largely stopped BUYING MTG in the late 2010s once I had kids and the rate of releases accelerated exponentially. But nobody can stop me from playing my old school Hazezon Tamar and Sen Triplets and Visara the Dreadful Commander decks 🙂

My NOW empty. But yes.

 

[kitzsuna]

I just got into it a couple years ago when work slowed down and we had zero work to do so my coworkers said “you’re gonna learn nerd ****” and now here we are haha

 

[kitzsuna]

My NOW empty. But yes.

Rip to future rae

Unfortunately, per the part about no longer buying, I largely have no idea what any of those cards do

But I legit still have MTG under "hobbies" on my professional CV, and I kid you not I probably have it brought up once a year in a professional setting 🙂

 

[_rae_]

I’m very excited. I’m going to try a sweater. My first sweater was not as successful so I’m hoping to work out some kinks with some help from the group

This is so funny because I find crocheting SO much easier

But it's probably just because I learned it first

Ah this makes sense!

I would like wine tonight. But I'm somehow going to another conference tomorrow and then old friends are coming to visit this weekend, so a night off seemed prudent.

I’ve only had two hangovers in my life so I think I’ll be good but who knows

Ngl I didn’t know you could put hobbies on a cv!

 

[kitzsuna]

Hell yeah dude! Open another!

I don’t really drink anymore cause my body said “you’re over thirty, two drinks and you’ll be dying the next day”. It’s actually wild how my Garmin shows me when I’ve been drinking like “hey buddy you slept like **** and your HRV is dead are you also dying?” 😅

 

[WildZoo]

At least WW is a free hobby

My institution lists it as an optional section. Maybe I'm the only one who uses it, but why not?

I never really drank much to begin with but same. Sometimes I'll get a fancy cocktail or something but otherwise I'm quite sensitive to alcohol so it's just not worth it
