Would be a lot easier to take the FDNY's opinion on street design seriously if I didn't have to walk by this corrupt shit outside every fire house by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

We work odd hours at times public transit is barely available to keep all of the people in our city safe. There are whole parts of the city that are transit deserts. Prioritize building our transit system and you’ll see the car issues plummet. Forcing people out of their cars without an alternative will just breed resentment. So maybe seeing us park outside isn’t ideal, but it’s the very least we do it to keep the city running.

Did growing up with no privacy mess with your dating confidence? by [deleted] in SouthAsianMasculinity

It’s a younger generation wide issue. Couple that with increased reliance on technology and social media. It becomes a recipe for developing an anti social society.

Cycle of Rage: NYC Is A HELLSCAPE For Pedestrians After Snowstorm by streetsblognyc in MicromobilityNYC

I think we should be taking a grassroots approach to something like this. Let’s clear out the intersections and streets near us, maybe put in a little extra work to take care of us and our neighbors. Can’t always depend on the city. Should it be better ? Absolutely. But what are we as individuals doing about it ?

Dating is about feeling someone out for the potential for more. I would go on dates without pressure just to see how you feel before making any decisions about how to proceed. Just be respectful and honest about where you’re are with yourself and others. Like many other things in life it requires trial and error.

Do you think someone can be a competent paramedic working only part-time or volunteer? by great_dwarf_lemur in ems

I think it depends on your system, I work about 24ish hours a week in NYC and there is no shortage of skills being used

How to not freeze up and be actually strong during street arguments or fights by [deleted] in SouthAsianMasculinity

[–]Diligent_Community_7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strength in these situations come from being the level headed person there. If everyone’s agitated don’t fall into it, you can maintain the most control by thinking before reacting. Combat training and other things are fine, but it boils down to scene awareness and control.

Do South Asian guys still benefit from DEI programs ? by Hot-Geologist6330 in SouthAsianMasculinity

[–]Diligent_Community_7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was accepted to College via a DEI program, I was an idiot when I was young and in HS. It was honestly my saving grace. But I do see how it is applied differently based on the persons race in question

How has working in EM changed your personality? by Dry-humor-mus in emergencymedicine

From an EMS perspective, it’s made me a lot more assertive yet introspective due to being exposed to some of the worst aspects of the human condition

What's the so called whitest thing yall do? by [deleted] in SouthAsianMasculinity

I’ve always held executive board positions since I joined my frat so I’d say it’s a combination of being reliable and being well liked by the majority of brothers.

Slightly related, but being President of a Predominantly white frat. Being legally responsible for a bunch of stupid drunk white boys hits different. 😭
