all you pimple brained toothless cocksuckers asking what a minivan is its when you have 2 fingers in front and 5 in the back (fist))

Nothing is worse for a highly intelligent and gifted person to be under-challenged and underwhelmed....

Today, I came home from work crying because I realised how underchallenged and boring my work currently is. My expertise is currently not being used because customer projects come in slow and don't get to the downstream processing/purification part (I'm a specialist for protein pruification). I don't get many other opportunities to show my skills and knowledge and only do some minor backup tasks like writing working instructions...Nothing about my work currenly feels rewaring and chellengeing. I am a scientist, I love the try and error and the challenge! I thrive in that. I literally work best with stress and being overloaded with work than with being underwhelmed...
On top of it I'm gettin really bad imposter syndrome because of not being able to show my expertise while my colleagues currenlty thrive and get ever opportunity to show their knowledge and expert fields. We got a new teamlead in march and so far I feel like I could not show off/prove my skille and knowledge to him while the others could. I feel like I'm standing in the shadows sometimes even being actively pushed back into them. Like a tool put in a shelf not neede for now collecting dust.
It's incredibly frustrating and deressing for me because I am a scientist by heart I love my profession...

Now my overthinking brain gets even to the point where I'm asking myself if they are boring me out on purpose, so I leave the company on my own accord and they don't have to fire me, because they can't without a reason....
I'm more and more thinking of actually looking for a different posititon... Maybe I'll apply for a pHD after all...

What true starvation looks like:

This is what true starvation looks like. Every time I see a Western news report claiming that the people of Gaza are starving, I see individuals who appear healthy, not reduced to skin and bone. Look again—closely this time. This is what real starvation looks like. I get angry when I see the media spreading lies. Sorry to be so serious but as a Jew I get tired of the lies and manipulation from the media.

One more from Mr. Lange. This stand up is nearly 20 years old, but seems like a century away with all the clutch the pearls types. But one thing I'm noticing, late Gen Z's and some Gen Alphas are showing a bit of thicker skin. May be hope yet.
