I ruptured my achilles playing hoops and said, “guys, I just Kevin Duranted myself” before crawling to a wall and almost passing out. Also reassured them with, “don’t worry, I have full coverage” as they filed out.
Shout out to the man working in the grocery store deli in Winchester Massachusetts who cut off his finger at work today. The jokes you made while you were still in shock will haunt me for months to come.

So I waited 7 months to start my first postdoc position, and today that job offer was rescinded. Devastated is an understatement. 😭 Any help anyone could give me in finding a new phage-based postdoc would be much appreciated right now.
