Fortunately I'm not a fabric softener user! :) You're the second person to suggest using a second dry towel however so I'll definitely be trying that. (I just have to find the other towel first, lol)

that's a good point. distract myself with some Necrogoblikon or something. having wet hair makes me feel goblin-y in an angry wet cat sorta way lol

i already listen to metal when I epilate my leg and armpit hair cuz that shit hurts and the metal helps me feel badass enough to deal with it :'D

that's so lovely of you 🥺 if I ever manage to have a partner someday I will definitely inquire as to whether they'd be up for this! I'd certainly do it for them in return. Blow drying someone else's hair sounds WAY easier

Oh!! I have a rayon sarong that's really absorbent and might work for this. Never thought to introduce a second, dryer head wrap after the initial towel

I'm really curious about what kind of job that could be lol

adult entertainment haha. but all kinds of entertainment industry workers have restricted ability to change their hair length/color/etc. also women who work at religious institutions (e.g. a Christian hospital) may face significant social pressure to have traditionally feminine (long) hairstyles

I forgot about diffusers!! my mom has one and I love using it. definitely worth looking into, thanks for reminding me!!!

 

I have tried:
• air drying (takes too long, extends wet hair misery)
• having short hair (can't have short hair at one of my jobs)
• dryer bonnet (somewhat better cuz at least I can sorta multitask)
• sitting in front of box fan (takes too long)
• paying hairdresser to do it (expensive)

Figured I'd see if you guys know any tips and tricks...

I've gotten 2 skin burns from chemicals with a nitrile glove breakthrough time of <1 second

underfunded undergrad lab classes without heavy duty gloves shouldn't be allowed to use fuming nitric acid >:(

I tried scrambling an egg using the vortexer (it didn't work)

I rarely arrived at the lab before 10am as an undergrad intern. (And usually stayed until 7–8pm because I goofed around too much and it took forever to get all the cells taken care of 🫠)

Flexible schedules are a luxury I miss dearly

we used Macs at my last lab

I hated them because I'm a Linux nerd but at least they were reliable

(I suppose if my research PC ran Linux I'd spend all my time configuring it instead of researching...!)

 

Ones that come to mind for me are Telephone by Lady Gaga and Money by Cardi B

 

I have gotten into many arguments over this one

 

"Sega Channel was a project developed by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive video game console. Completely revolutionary at the time of release (bar a failed attempt with the earlier Intellivision console), it was a method capable of streaming digital content to Mega Drive owners through cable television."
