    Na this is actual intrusive thoughts from someone who has spent a considerable amount of time in a lab. It’s legit. I felt seen reading this comic. The plastic waste makes me shudder. Also experiments actually just fail sometimes, not even giving a positive or negative result. The method went wrong or a reagent was cooked.

      Same. I’ve used tens of thousands of pipette tips. I can’t imagine what my lifetime plastic consumption is like compared to your average person. I’m guessing I’m like a small neighborhood.

      You should know better than to start an experiment on Tuesdays!
