  • I don’t have a tenure committee and nobody cares what I research as long as I publish and get grants. Ymmv. Edit: also, the comic skips postdoc, which is probably the most care free career stage (you can pretty much do whatever the fuck you want as long as you manage to impress your supervisor every now and then with original stuff and follow through to turn them into papers).




  • If you like it, then it’s a good cup of tea. I think that pretty much any reasonable quality tea, if prepared and enjoyed deliberately, is nice, and the act of making it with an infuser adds to the experience. I like loose leaf and that’s the only kind of tea I buy for myself, but I have to admit I got some really nice teas coming in teabags in restaurants. Coffee is somewhat different, good freshly roasted beans ground immediately before brewing is just not the same beverage that you get when you buy ground coffee.
