ol' Harry from chemtwitter would say bars need a degreaser management program, I would say you need a degreaser lock-out/tag-out system

In response to a c&en call for more poems from readers, a molecule of chlorpyrifos is reading a limerik. An organophosphate coming from Dow Spent its half-life wondering how To strike the nerves of just pests without hitting the rest And remain in high use for just now In response to a c&en post on spider silk in manufacturing and how manufacturers are encountering a web of challenges. There is a cartoon of a lady talking to a bunch of spiders in the "Tangled Web Materials Co". She is saying "It's not that i want to let you go. It's just that you freak out the manufacturing guys" A series of tweets from 2017: Dave Palmer @DavePalmerUSask · 11 Apr 2017 Now I'm picturing a pamphlet, showing someone with their face stuck in Büchner, with the title "Is Theoretical Chemistry Right for You?" 🌐 HartreeFocker @edsherer Replying to @DavePalmerUSask Student in our lab got too close to suction flask and got face stuck to it during synthesis Compound Interest @compoundchem · 12 Apr 2017 Replying to @DavePalmerUSask and @Chemjobber Can @ChemScrapes make this image happen? Chemjobber @Chemjobber · 12 Apr 2017 Replying to @compoundchem and 2 others Pshaw, if I asked for a hybrid-carbon monoxide/elephant riding a unicycle while arm-wrestling E.J. Corey, I know @ChemScrapes could draw it. There is a cartoon of a person with it's face stuck to a buchner funnel....and a CO elephant riding a unicycle arm wrestling EJ Corey with it's trunk. It is saying "Not THIS time Professor!" In response to an ACS Reactions post on hand sanitizer and the truth behind killing 99.99% of all germs. A cartoon showing a molecule of ethanol telling a joke on stage.n stage telling a joke to an audience of bacteria. The joke is "What do you call a soulful bacterium? Flagella Ftzgerald (FtZ is filamentous temperature sensitive protein Z. this is truly a great pun by me if I do say so myself. Most of the audience of bacteria think so to. Ethanol is killing it! Everyone is laughing......except for that 1....the 0.01%. That one is saying "Actually I don't find it funny"

preordered my copy!

In addition to Debbie being one of the absolute best and most generous long time members of the chemtwitter (RIP) and now chemsky communities, she is also a phenomenal spectroscopist. Even if she weren’t both those things, this just looks like a great read!

Order yours today!

We are about 6 months away from my book, RESONANCE & RADIANCE, being released into the world. (April 13th, 2027!)

RESONANCE & RADIANCE is a narrative nonfiction book about spectroscopy—the field of science that studies how light interacts with molecules.

I want to share this book’s origin story 🧵:

And for all the long time #chemtwitter / #chemsky friends—i interviewed @sararah.bsky.social for the NMR chapter in her magnet lab in Ames, Iowa!

I’m so grateful for the generosity of experts like Sarah who took the time to talk to me and also give feedback on the book!

How it’s going / how it started!

I got to visit @sararah.bsky.social midwest magnet fleet 🧲🧲🧲

For the last decade, Sarah has been a generous source of knowledgeable & a super kind pocket friend!

She also gave me a tour of Ames including her adorable plant shop🪴

I remember a LONG discussion thread back on #ChemTwitter about the proper way to draw/represent the S-O bond in DMSO
Lots of strong opinions from the populace

Nice article on thesis acknowledgment sections by @adamcvean.bsky.social at @chemistryworld.com!

Read this and you'll learn that acknowledgments are a (guilty?) pleasure for me, particularly if the'yre somewhat unusual or juicy. Also quotes from some absolute chemtwitter/chemsky allstars

No I figured it was something like that, it just sounded specific enough that if it came from anyone more publicly petty than you Id wonder 😂

But yeah there are some candidates that chemtwitter has locked horns with before 😂 but admittedly not on purely scientific grounds afaik

So I haven't submitted a preprint to ChemRxiv before, but I'm considering it. How have people found the preprint process? Has it helped the visibility of your work? Has it helped find a journal for the paper? Other thoughts? #ChemTwitter

I've not experienced this type of rejection before... Are these becoming more common? They really should include this in their publishing statistics, as it seems disingenuous to boast of rapid publication times when you can't get reviewers. #PayYourReviewers #ChemTwitter

TIL there is a journal called "Molecular Pain". You can even express your molecular pain in the form of a micro-report. #MolecularPain #ChemTwitter #RealTimeChem
