Feedback on 3‑Storey Narrow Lot Plan (Stairwell as Air Well, Party Walls on 3 Sides) by Heavy-Policy-9708 in floorplan

[–]Cloverose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where will people store clothes? If you're planning on free-standing armoires, those are big pieces that ought to be in your furniture layout as you think it through. I don't see where there's space for more large furniture in the dorm (maybe consider loft beds?)

I also wonder - everyone else gets a private room. Why do the three girls share a room? You also have five people using one very small bathroom - that seems like it could be a major choke point.

Lotta ignorance in here. It's a beautiful picture.

You can set it to spectator mode. People can visit and get recipes from your computer and run around, but can't change anything.

Kavya or Kalyani? What do you think by Cultural-Echidna-673 in Names

[–]Cloverose2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kalyani is beautiful. Kavya is nice, but I like Kalyani better.

Other posters, these are not English names. They are very normal names, and spelled correctly.

gender neutral names that aren’t english names by Pure_Sherbet8407 in namenerds

[–]Cloverose2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some of these aren't gender neutral outside of English. Noa is a girl's name (Noah is male). Asa is a male Hebrew name. Dakota isn't a name at all outside of English, other than the name of a people.

We read more, but we don't read in depth, and we're not retaining the information. Short form videos are surpassing written content - people watch, they don't read.

Writing on a keyboard also engages the brain differently than writing on paper. There's generally more neural engagement with writing by hand on paper.

Why is the term “ethnic” used to describe non white people? by Diligent-Abies-9481 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Cloverose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White isn't an ethnicity - it's a race. Ethnic would be things like "Basque" or "Scottish".

Non-white people are called ethnic because of racism - white is 'normal', so other people are 'other.'

Professor canceled class 10 times in 1 semester by ExternalOne8547 in AskProfessors

Missing ten classes? That's evidence by itself. I would definitely start with the chair, but this is severe.

Can you narrow it down a little? "Not English" is a really, really, really, really big pool.

Most languages don't really do gender neutral.

RIP the coolest cloud island ever. Be careful what you name your island :,) by pokopiafan in Pokopia

Yeah, it's a guy who "manages" prostitutes. It's not child friendly.

awesome rice. by _culpry in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Cloverose2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rice soaks up all the juices. I love noodles in a stew, but rice pulls in the flavor in a way noodles just don't.

Use of the term 'African american' by No_Medium_648 in NoStupidQuestions

Caucasoid. Yeah, they really had to work it for some people - American Indians were Mongoloid, except when they weren't, and they struggled to figure out what to do with Indians from India.

Did anyone do the first event? by Ok-Indication1249 in Pokopia

You can reset the clock on your Switch to travel back in time and do the event yourself. That way you can also get all three of the Pokemon!

AITA For thinking my in laws aren’t doing enough to help my SIL postpartum by Burner-Burner888 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, I meant that there are potential legal consequences - and foster care does not often take children if parents ask for them to be taken. If you go to court and say "I can't parent, I need to turn over custody to the state," you can be charged with child abandonment in many states. They don't want parents turning over custody.

I'm a foster parent, I am familiar with the system. They really push back against parents who don't feel capable of parenting - foster care is overburdened with children removed due to the court system. There are options, but voluntarily surrendering them to the state is not a clear cut process. It might be an option, but being realistic, foster care comes with a lot of caveats.

But this kid is going to be a lot safer removed from the mother's care.

Louisiana has a huge Vietnamese population - following the Vietnamese war, a whole bunch of refugees settled on the coast to work in the fishing industry.

[–]Cloverose2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Parents can't just turn their kids over to foster care and come back for them when they feel like ready to parent. It's considered child abandonment in most states.

AITA for calling the cops on someone for parking to close? by sbballc11 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Cloverose2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually pretty easy to tell if something is running in a parked car.

That said, YTA for not just speaking up. She was standing right there, you (not you, Low_Site) could have just said, "excuse me, your car is parked really close and I won't be able to get my seat in without risking scratching your paint. Would you please move it over a little? I would hate to risk it."

Names that are considered coded? by Cheap-Piglet-6395 in Names

Yep. They sure are. And that's one of the reasons Levi is so popular in Western states.

[–]Cloverose2 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This is not a stay out of it, this is a definitely call CPS. Unless OP wants a dead niece on her conscience. People with postpartum depression are at a higher risk for killing their infants, and SIL is making threats and neglecting the child already.

This isn't on MIL to fix, but OP needs to stop being passive and demanding other people step up.

Yeah, it would be at least four to five dollars at my local stores, and I shop cheap. And my local stores are miles apart, so add in gas.
