My first semester of college I had two family members die by murder-suicide. Chem department wouldn't give me an extension on the test scheduled the day I returned from the funerals (so no study time, 5 hour drive, and, y'know, pesky emotional trauma).https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/993225656963076098 …

Thanks. My chem lab instructors were the polar opposite of the dept., and were super supportive but then it turned into a "we're gonna PRAY w/you" moment for them and my nonreligious self was probably thinking "thanks but abt that test" and the whole thing was comically absurd.

Like, that allows me to laugh about the whole thing for some reason. You don't know my religious background but you're gonna pray "with" me ok whatever makes *you* feel better, and I don't know why but now I find it amusing.
