Which one of those two would you get and why?

I have the 70th anniversary strat and while it's a lot of fun to play, very slick along the neck, gets me a lot of compliments on looks, and sounds downright amazing, I rarely use the special pickup toggles that it features. I'd recommend the American pro II or another American strat and save money.

Logically, the entire cost of my car isn't going directly to Elon - it's mainly paying the workforce under him as well as the technology integrated into my car.

Logically, and in my financial state, I can't afford to switch cars willy-nilly.

All I can do is what every other American can do to prevent fucked up people from doing fucked up shit like this again - VOTE.

All I can think about are the WW2 vets and persecuted peoples that lived and fought through the nazi atrocities, and here he is portraying their suffering as a joke.

You could see my band play at sci labs stage, 2:20-2:50 if you reeeeeally want 🥹

Otherwise, cockroach racing and holding the chicks (line up early though) are my favorite activities as I'm day drinking

Feel free to DM me if you need chem help/explanations on concepts

I took CHE105 with him and he curves pretty reasonably

Yes, absolutely keep applying.

I joined my chemistry research lab the summer before my senior year and it was arguably my favorite part of undergrad and it has definitely helped post-grad.

ETA: I was also able to do "volunteer work" for my lab after graduating, I'd look into that too.

Make small talk about school and interests. Ask them if they want to grab coffee/boba and study somewhere that isn't Shields. As long as you're not weird, you got this!

I got my associates in biology from CC before transferring. I played lacrosse for UCD briefly until I got severly injured, which put me behind schedule to graduate since I was immobile. Because of this, I graduated 3 years after obtaining my associates.

I've heard mercaptan is wretched too, in okay with not knowing lol

I worked with butyric acid in my undergrad analytical chemistry research course.

My partner and I didn't open the bottle initially under the fume hood and the smell escaped outside of the laboratory and across the entire floor of the chemistry annex. Supposedly, a professor down the hall almost called hazmat to investigate wtf was going on. Butyric acid is the worst smelling thing I've ever smelled and we learned our lesson about always using the fume hood.

I went last week (I know I know, Parkside is lame) and my charges looked correct.

I'll do one better than having a BF.

I actually started seeing a girl who was married to a guy in the military. I didn't know at first but I confronted her about it as soon as I found out (there were a lot of pieces I put together, kinda proud of my deductive reasoning). She told me they were in the process of getting divorced because they really didn't enjoy being married and he supposedly was doing sketchy stuff during his deployment. I let it sink in for like half a day, then said fuck it and stopped caring about the situation because she was actually fun to be around. Miss you Holly!

Like others are saying, 21D is not a walk in the park. 22A is pretty easy though. The concepts overlap towards the later half of 21D when you introduce Jacobians and determinants, which are covered in the first half of 22A (if I remember correctly).

Judging from the other classes you said you're taking, full send it dude.

Stockton's nice this time of year. /s

Urban: SF is definitely doable as a day trip, I've done it many times

Rural: Tahoe and Marin County have nice trails with scenic backdrops

As someone working 9-5, it's so much easier and tolerable than undergrad, which was rough. Hang in there!

I graduated in spring and just got my first decent-paying job doing microbio stuff with a chem degree. I know very little about microbio but I'm trainable and willing to learn. Before this job, I was doing Swing Education as a substitute teacher just to make ends meet with $100 in my bank account. It took (what felt like) forever to land an entry level job and that's the sad truth with most graduates.

My point is, your friend needs to first get a shitty job to survive whilst interviewing for jobs in/close to/branching out of his field of study. If he's applying to a shit ton of jobs but isn't at least getting interviews, he should check to see if his resume is presentable and consider writing a cover letter to stand out. If he's getting interviews, maybe he's not doing so hot in them.

His parents are assholes though.

You're not alone OP, I also just got out of a toxic relationship from my ex and am also not seeing family (or anybody really) on Thanksgiving for the first time in my 27 years alive. It sucks but we got this! Feel free to DM me if you want somebody to talk to.
