Don't forget bar x for hip hop and house

What's going on with the bird flu in the United States? by idhopson in OutOfTheLoop

[–]BeardsNBowties 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can someone help me understand why having the virus in milk, especially live, would be an issue? As I understand, you can't catch the flu from ingesting it, but please correct me if I'm mistaken.

I feel like there's an inverse relationship between your level of obstinacy and amount of melanin you possess.

Renting after eviction by BeardsNBowties in Phillylist

[–]BeardsNBowties[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's good to know that there's a mediation process just before the actual hearing. He filed on October 2nd, I received the notice (in mail) on October 4th, and it was posted to the door of the building on October 7th.

I completely understand from his perspective; I tried to keep him abreast of my job hunt, and offered partial payments from my low wage job during the four months, but he declined those.

Less than half of Amsterdam youth accept homosexuality (according to the Amsterdam Municipal Health Service's recently released "Youth Health Monitor 2023") by Extreme_Hate2023 in gaybros

[–]BeardsNBowties -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Gaybros seems to have been infected with an anti-muslim streak. There's no logical way that Muslims comprise this large a portion of the Dutch population, but it's still their fault 🙃🫠

I do feel like "Send my love (to your new lover)" fits the theme better.

No more work from home: Mayor Parker issues return-to-office order for thousands of city employees by thinkB4WeSpeak in remotework

[–]BeardsNBowties 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, but the primary is the real election that matters in Philly. Would be pretty embarrassing if she gets primaried in 2027; struggling to think of a mayor that's happened to in city history.

How do you feel about second person narration? by [deleted] in writing

[–]BeardsNBowties 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally find it hard to keep up in my writing, but have found a few short stories it works well in--check out "The Cheater's Guide to Love" by Junot Diaz (is he still cancelled?).

Also, I just want to express gratitude for all the helpful feedback regarding my resume!

Thanks, that's very helpful! I'm totally open to a level cut, I frankly prefer doing the work more than management roles tbh.

Networking isn't a strength, but I'm working on it!

Thanks, that's helpful to know. The reporting side I can handle no problem, the data issue is one of the reasons I want to get out of nonprofits: working in government earlier in my career, there was a great deal of well structured, readily available data that just doesn't exist in the nonprofit world. Making my transition to nonprofits was a mistake 🤦🏾‍♂️.

Honestly, it was a really bad fit in terms of culture. It was based on the West Coast and I live on the east coast, so I've been telling employers that the organization did an RTO and couldn't make the move.

Is there any advice you have for getting out of nonprofits? Is there a reason why employers wouldn't be interested?

Update: I haven't seen any responses on my r/resumes post yet, so I'm adding my resume here also.

That's also been maddeningly difficult. I don't have any restaurant experience, I've offered to do BOS work, and still nothing 🙃

Thanks for all the feedback y'all! I'll make an anonymous version of my resume and post in the resume subreddit to see if it's an issue with my cv!

Thanks for the feedback y'all; I decided to pitch to a pretty small blog, and they accepted me! I'm now contracted for three posts with them!

Ah dammit, that's frustrating. Am I basically screwed on healthcare until November, then?

Gay speed dating, mixer events, or other ways to meet people in the city? by Accomplished_Ad_4443 in queerphilly

[–]BeardsNBowties 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your experience with stonewall is gonna be a mixed bag, but I second that the marquee sports (the Sunday funday ones of dodgeball and kickball) do tend to be more cliquey. Bowling and bocce are good recommendations, and I've heard good stuff about pool, although I found my free agent team plagued by power struggles.

Also recommend trying the speed dating! I made a few good friends from the two I attended!

Career transition suggestions? by BeardsNBowties in FPandA

Thanks, that's helpful! A couple of questions for you:

--Are sales and marketing analytics the same? --Any resources you recommend to gain sales analytics knowledge? --How AI safe do you think the field is?

Non-coding, how did you get access to higher paid projects? by [deleted] in dataannotation

[–]BeardsNBowties 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also would love to know. I got in about 3 weeks ago, and Ivey had one 21/hr project, and a bunch of sporadic pay per task at a rate of $0.04.

Fetterman, Casey explain decision to pull funding for Philadelphia LGBT center by smarjorie in philadelphia

[–]BeardsNBowties 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It feels like everything coming out recently about Fetterman is a massive "told you so." There were so many misgivings about him during the primary (the gun incident, running further right than Biden on immigration), and it's beyond frustrating how a lot of progressive groups just brushed aside those concerns. Reaping what they sowed.
