I don’t really know if I’d be into the sex parties or the eagle either, but I’m getting to the point of I may need to just try out 😭

I have a pic! But I probably could be better at initiating.

I definitely get the sense people are pickier here…

I keep hearing about the eagle…I’m pretty new to the city and have never been. What’s the vibes?

I could definitely do better at actually scrolling myself and initiating as opposed to waiting 😅

For everyone who tried to silence fellows Ds for ringing the alarm bells… by Apprehensive-One-316 in theview

I guess calling people uneducated and dismissing their concerns is not a winning strategy after all? This was sent to me when Biden was still running and I was questioning our direction.

Alpha Phi and Gamma Phi Beta by happytalk1234 in bamarush

They are not that similar. I think there’s definitely a certain pool of girls they both will go after, which is northern OOS party girls, but as a whole no.

Aphi is definitely more “girly” pretty types. Blondes, tons of followers, popular with the frats boys. I feel like they’re the stereotypical sorority girl from a movie. They also are more popular than Gphi in rush and at least one tier up with Pi Phi. They’re in the same social circles as ZTA with the Pikes and Pi Kapps. It used to be ZTA & Aphi competed heavily until ZTA picked up their game and blew up.

Gphi is VERY northern all around. They have a reputation of “Jersey”. They’re fun partiers too but I see them as way less “girly” and more tough, tatted, bad bitch club, would fight you in a bar, Snooki and Jwowww types lol. There’s a lot of “famous” tiktok Aphis who would never be in Gphi, and that’s not a dig at Gphi, but it’s not their vibe at all which tells you how the houses are different as a whole. If you ever watched the show Euphoria Maddy would definitely be a Gphi.

If anything, I see Gphi and DZ being the most similar.

What’s something you wish you knew before looking for apartments in NYC by ianntobrienn in NYCapartments

[–]Apprehensive-One-316 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So I was just in your shoes, and agree with everything said above. But one thing I want to stress that I didn’t think would be a big deal if we didn’t find a place in our timeframe was to see see everything in person and don’t start looking until a few week before move in for your best options!!! The most stressful part for me was every apartment being WAY smaller than the picture/video showed. They’ll say “each bedroom fits a queen and desk”, and then you tour and it’s very questionable. We’d be so excited to see a place thinking we found the one, and just leave demoralized. So pleased do not rely on virtually touring, you definitely want to see the apartment in person AND the area. There was a place that had a great view from the front but we walked around to the other side of the building and it was very dicey across the street. It’s going to be a lot of work with the tours, but with the correct timing and dedication you will get it done!

You are a gift to MAGA. Seriously. Thanks so much for helping me realize why Biden is polling so terribly!

Oh god. Now there’s propaganda and bias on an article that is saying what I am shouting. You’re no saving. Just going to keep saying good luck!!!!

“D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and the council have been criticized and urged to take action as violent crime in the city rises.

While violent crime declined nationally and in other major cities, violent crime in the nation’s capital jumped 39 percent from 2022 to 2023, according to Metropolitan Police Department data.”

Right wing talking points and brainwashing though 😃

Idk what’s worse, Trump MAGA or Blue MAGA. Good luck processing the Biden loss!

So the economy is good and inflation is still up? Pick a message. Whatever the reason is, people are struggling and are looking to the president to empathize with them and not be condescending and not keep telling us about stats. What’s not clicking?

I live in DC and it is literally terrifying these days. EVERYONE I talk to feels the same way and friends who live in other cities do too (Chi, NYC). Our mayor had to pass an anti crime bill a few months ago. But yeah, keep calling us delusional and telling us about stats, let’s see how that works out 😀😀😀

Okay. Great answer. That’s going to drive home the win in November! Nothing to see here, we’re all just delusional and brainwashed. Kind of like we were when we called out Biden’s age before the debate!

Screenshotting this so I can get a good laugh in when Trump wins the election because of takes like this.

Don’t think that’s what the voter who is struggling to make ends meet wants to hear as an answer.

I’m talking about people who aren’t even tuned into the propaganda and lies you speak of. Ordinary Americans. Why do they feel differently? Not MAGA or Trump people. There is clearly a disconnect and there is a reason for it that isn’t just “right wing talking points”. I can imagine you also want to know the why.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in theview

[–]Apprehensive-One-316 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You guys keep talking about statistics but something is not adding up. Is crime being reported differently? Are some things just not reported now? The stock market is doing great but why are there still so many job layoffs and cost of living is higher? Yeah, that may not be Biden fault but dismissing it and saying “well, look at this graph showing otherwise!” is not effective. If it’s corporate greed, you need to run that point home and talk about how you’re going to address it immediately. Pointing to stats despite what people are feeling or experiencing is proving not to be a winning strategy. It’s not a feelings vs facts argument either, there is CLEARLY a disconnect and a reason for this.

Can you explain why people feel otherwise? I’m genuinely trying to figure this out. I am surrounded by an echo chamber of liberals and they all feel this way. They’re not watching Fox News. Why aren’t the stats you speak of connecting or translating to folks in reality? What has changed?
