Happy 18th birthday to my little old man Misty!

Trans people deserve the same rights and respect as everyone else on this planet. If that is too hard of a concept to grasp, we cannot ever be friends.

After a year of learning Python, I built my first fully functioning programme as an executable. Its a simple gas law calculator, so nothing major, but I am proud I managed build something.

Today is the day. Moving away from my wife (again) for a job because I can't find anything close to home. See y'all in 6 months...

Start my new lab based role on Monday. 6 month contract. You'd think I'd be less anxious but if I am not made permanent, I will be back to square one in August. I really hope the chemical industry in the UK picks up again soon!

One year since the miscarriage. You'd think time would have made it easier, but it's still painful.

I have officially left teaching! I am free! Down side is I have to move out of my house temporarily for a job down south for 6 months in the hope the job market where I live picks up and I can move back home. So... Streams will be EVEN rarer going forwards.

One think teaching has taught me... Year 7s do not know to not cough in your face. I now have a horrible cold. Thanks kids.

Been listening to a lot of Lorna Shore. If I had to describe the band... Angry pig noises would be apt 🤣

I don't know how teachers do this for years... Three weeks into the new term and I have applied to 100 jobs just to escape teaching forever. I know the training year is supposed to be hard but I don't think I should stay in a job I hate.

Time for a cheeky stream. I specifically made time for it! Kaizo fun can be had here: www.twitch.tv/agathor86

It's Science Saturday on stream today! Come learn about how medicinal chemists tackle cancer using .... well, chemistry! There will probably be some kaizo shenanigans after. www.twitch.tv/agathor86

Fun stream last night. I have to do it again sometime!

I am LIVE for the first time in six weeks! Let's play some Kaizo! www.twitch.tv/agathor86

Restarted teacher training at a new school. Different vibe, feeling more positive about it. Hopefully this placement goes a lot better.

I always wonder why I wasted my time getting a chemistry degree then wasting even more time getting a PhD when I can no longer get a job in the field. The stress of being jobless for almost a year is killing me. Teacher training is awful. I hate it but I have no other option left.

Reason #192348 why I don't stream often. Misty said my stream set up is not up to code.

Catholic school I'm teacher training at don't want me back. I was gonna quit anyway. They got there first. Hour long meeting with the training provider to find another school to train in. Might quit teaching and go back to the lab. Haven't made my mind up yet.

That penalty is too harsh for Lando. They left it too long to yellow flag and safety car the race... a puncture at 200 mph is dangerous. 5 second penalty would have been sufficient. A 10 second stop and go penalty is... excessive. Oh how I want to he a fly on the wall at the GPDA meeting.

Oh come on. Is this amateur hour or what? Debris on track requires safety car and yellow flags! F1 has become a joke.

So. I have been informed by one of my viewers that they have some glassware and chemicals for me to collect from them. Live chemistry experiments on twitch might be coming soon! Well... Once I find the time between teaching and the gym!

Finally got off my backside and made an account here. Hopefully I can forever leave behind the cesspit that is X.
