Ive wedged myself into a strange corner where my twitter is 50% gay stuff and 50% science stuff and when I tweet about one thing I feel bad that the other half has to see it, because for one half its boring and for the other half its traumatizing

I have been gaslit, passive aggressively judged by coworkers, and called “lazy”. Both when I was a technician and grad student for trying to adhere to an 8 hour day, and observing weekends. ITS ABSURD. I work hard and I get my shit done, WELL, and I’m going to live my life too.

Chlorophyll and Hemoglobin The major difference is that plant blood carries a Magnesium (Mg) molecule where our blood contains a Iron (Fe) molecule. Magnesium is what is responsible for making plant blood green, and iron is what makes our blood red.
