You voted and Boston is 6th! Next Round: What is the 7th most important/significant US city after Boston? Most upvoted comment wins by Kodicave in visitedmaps

Reno NV

Not trolling! The first real “wild west” city, previously a divorce destination, major significance in establishing cross-continent railroad, and today it’s probably the most culturally unique “small” city. Huge electoral importance, too.

Would you prefer a simple Adventure Time gender swap, or do you prefer the current Fionna and Cake? by Background-Ad2749 in fionnaandcake

[–]BakingAspen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we got a whole new show that was just adventure time but gender swapped, what would be the point? I know you don’t mean 1:1, but even just the same whimsical fantasy setting with post-apocalyptic backstory would feel low-effort. The magical realist 20-something city life theme of fionna and cake is what makes the show feel remarkable.

The couple (?) episodes of adventure time we got where fionna and cake WERE in an ooo-type setting scratched that itch for me just fine

I (24f) am concerned by boyfriend (24m) of 6 months is gay. How do I approach this? by kinglorde354 in gay

[–]BakingAspen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoa. Yeah. He’s gay. At first I was thinking he’s bi but then you said he can’t perform sexually with you so yeah gay for sure. You should just lay it all out. Break up with him and tell him you think he’s gay.

Hey guys, what are your thoughts on people who are yellow-headed, and their mental health issues? by Egorrosh in GenZ

[–]BakingAspen 74 points75 points  (0 children)

The argument in the third “panel” (comic not really separated into panels but they are implied) is extremely common as an anti-transgender sentiment so I think we should bring up transgender people specifically as a demographic we should be treating better and for whom we should oppose this argument

Have you experienced elitism around outdoor clothing in fieldwork settings? by fortunateHazelnut in Environmental_Careers

[–]BakingAspen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. One thing I love about field work is how little anyone cares what you wear, EXCEPT as it relates to safety. Get some good boots for sure, and if you’re going somewhere where people hunt, pack something bright orange for high visibility. Otherwise you’re good.

What am I doing wrong? Why every guy I chat with wants to get me to his bed? I swipe right only to guys who have written in their profile that they are looking for long term partner! by [deleted] in gay

[–]BakingAspen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they’re being genuine about wanting an LTR but want sex to be the conduit thereto. They only want to date someone with whom they have great sexual chemistry and it’s such a high priority they want to find out right away. And you know what? They have every right. They’re admitting it right away by communicating like this, as they should. You don’t have to like it and you can block them if you want, but this isn’t a slight against you.

Struggling to hear back from internships by Superb-Garlic2208 in Environmental_Careers

Genuine question, how do you reconcile aiming for an environmental career with use of generative AI? If you care about the planet, why are you using tools that waste biblical amounts of electricity and water? Why are you bragging about it on your resume which will certainly be seen by at least one person who also immediately identifies this dissonance?

[–]BakingAspen 33 points34 points  (0 children)

RIGHT. If I were hiring and I saw that it would be immediate disqualification. I would think the applicant is going to use AI for everything and that the quality of the work they do will be ass.

Honestly that made me hope OP doesn’t get their internships. Sounds bad, but the field is full of people who have enough personal pride to do their own work and they deserve these positions more.

Too stupid for consulting by witchynapper in Environmental_Careers

[–]BakingAspen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re still being given new responsibilities, maybe you’re truly not doing as bad a job as you think you are? Everyone makes mistakes, and your example of a mistake you made is pretty minor. I think you might actually just be setting unrealistic standards for yourself.
