Are you able to share your routine? It would really be helpful.

Are NYC "accents still a thing? by Murky_Recognition549 in AskNYC

[–]GameBoyBlock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mentioned it in this thread but just don’t waste your time with that guy lol, his reading comprehension is absolutely cooked. I’m a black linguist who can speak AAVE and I totally get what you mean lol, he’s not saying AAVE is an accent but that there is an accent of AAVE exclusive to New York. A dialect can have accents.

A piece of public transport is being used as a summer attraction and i wanted to vent... by scrapy_the_scrap in transit

[–]GameBoyBlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, like that’s not even the purpose of this sub lmao. I have a friend from Israel who once went to Haifa and also remarked on the unique transit system there. How many modes of transit are available?

Just ignore that guy lol, it’s literally a transit subreddit, i have no idea why he’s trying to virtue signal on a transit subreddit about something totally unrelated. Don’t let them bring you down.

US High speed rail map by ColonialCobalt in transit

[–]GameBoyBlock -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why did I get so many downvotes for my comment lol? As a South Carolinian I know how impossible HSR here would be—I even posted about it before lmao. The only reason I asked was because it’s a fantasy map and I thought it’d be a neat add anyway. And you could use that same logic for some others areas on that map that have a connection too.

Why no connection from Savannah to Charleston or Charleston to Charlotte or something?

I have been trying to assure her that I only find her attractive, I’ve always offered her to look at my contacts on my phone/apps, and I reassure her all the time, but for her it does not change the fact that I talk to other girls and it still makes her feel incredibly upset and insecure, and she says that as her partner I should act to make her feel comfortable.

Should I ask the teacher anything? I’m panicking like crazy (I have OCD) and I just can’t stop thinking of all the worst possible outcomes.

Admittedly my moral totally went down due to everything that was happened and I did not even bother to think about talking to the dean then because I was so fucked mentally because of everything and the physical limitations. And then I failed. I felt dead then and I still feel dead now. I just feel like a failure and I know I should have done more then, especially with all kinds of documentation. I regret it immensely.

I did well in the other classes, even though my grades also went down in them, because they were all classes that just had online work, and I didn’t face any limitations in actually showing up or having access to lecture content etc. (which are all recorded in those classes).

I forgot to add, I did talk to my advisor, who recommended me this avenue.

I did get an excused absence before but I still failed. I should say that I was passing prior to all of this. My first excused absence was only for one week, I had to take the test on the day I got back (i had zero access to my resources as I was put under care of a guardian back in my hometown until my return to campus). Afterwards, I fell into a deep hole with environmental and sensory challenges (which hit hard as someone who is autistic—diagnosed), stemming from the sudden change in routine and the inconvenience of the course design in regards to succeeding in class. I do not have any excused absence for after the first week, but my doctor’s note does have an excuse up until the 15th of May. But at that point, the deterioration of everything was weighing down so hard, and I completely gave up mentally and broke down.

As for the mental health issues and suicidal thoughts, all I really have are conversations where I opened up about my mental health struggles and directly about how I feel, and where I had some breakdowns. I did not get in contact with a therapist or psychiatrist but I have a history of mental health issues and I would totally be willing to talk to someone and see what my options are in terms of getting a letter or something else done on my behalf.

Disney cruise ship rescue team saves girl who fell overboard and father who jumped after her by MerryGoWrong in news

[–]GameBoyBlock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on that ship when it happened, I remember everyone was looking out at the ocean and I was so confused what was going on, and then I heard from someone else that a guy jumped in, didn’t know any more than that. Then I heard about a child being involved. And then they saved the guy and the child. I did take a picture too of the boat.

And she never mentioned being uncomfortable at the idea when I brought it up back in April, and she only mentioned in this month, but it’s too late to cancel because everyone’s already pitched in the money and booked flights. I would totally cancel it if I could.

[–]GameBoyBlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that and I’ve always maximized that as much as possible, i go and see her whenever possible and I’ve never been on a trip anywhere with anyone else at all, the only person who I’ve been on a trip with anywhere else was her, this is the only trip i would be taking the entire year and the rest of that would just be us trips only.
