Biology friending meme?

[sciatrix]

It occurs to me that I have an awful lot of subscribers and friends who have varying interests and expertises in biology, psychology, and all sorts of related topics and ideas. 'Related' being read broadly here--if it touches on natural or social sciences and you want to share, please do.

Therefore, I thought I'd spin up a biology friending meme. What kind of background in the subject do you have? What things do you find interesting?

Hello hello! I'm big on sociology--especially where it intersects with queer theory. My background is that I really wanted to major in sociology but my parents wouldn't let me, so I majored in some bullshit Spanish instead and minored in sociology, then got spit out of school with a degree I have no intention of using and a continued passion for sociology which was not brutally slaughtered, unlike my interest in Spanish. Also I'm hella queer.

Okay, I guess I should mention I'm like half-competent in bio because my mom's a molecular biologist, but the other half of me is beyond incompetent about anything science (took AP chem, forgot everything), and zero part of me understands the computer stuff the rest of my family does (even though I'm internet/tech savvy) so I average out to being a fairly boring non-sciency person. I'm the liberal science black sheep of my family.
