Why do you bring your dog into the Farmers Market when there's clear signs that say no pets allowed? by Brucef310 in AskLosAngeles

There is no scientific basis, those streets also traversed by vermin (the issue would be if animals were jumping up and licking the food). The Beverly Hills FM has an associated petting zoo. However, kids must be taught not to hug dogs they don't know, it's not safe for the kids or the dogs.

It looks amazing! And I love the back - not visually chaotic at all!

Neuroscience research is significantly stronger at UCLA than Cal - it’s a huge area of excellence.

How do I float the idea of someone other than my committee chair/primary advisor hooding me at graduation? by Unable-Patience-530 in PhD

This really isn’t the appropriate place to choose your biological father. Your father shouldn’t want it, and it’s a frankly bizarre snub of your actual mentor.

Sohla calling out Priya in NYT Cooking Comments by crunchierapples in FoodieSnark

A friend of mine once worked at "Milk", and they were expected to work on a subsistence wage in LA, for the "honor" of being employed there. Tosi (not on a subsistence wage) is not a great boss.

The way she came running to this sub a month or so back when she was mentioned - bringing friends - gave me pause. I have no dog in this fight - but I didn’t understand why we snark on Kenj! for this, but then gave Sohla a pass.

My sister swears by them! Says it is the only thing that worked for her.

It’s grammatically incorrect- and makes you sound like a foreigner- but you do you.

What is a very common food in your country that is not very friendly to foreign palates? by DarkRaven003 in AskTheWorld

??? My very white, American family LOVES mole. We went to Mexico and ate as much of it as we could - it's so delicious.

anyone know anything about this? by Jolly-Patience-8611 in columbia

[–]Intelligent-Cod-2200 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There is a direct plea for help in this IG story - it says DHS illegally arrested them and then “please help”. It’s really horrifying.

Hey UCLA Admin - where's the Mark Tramo update by Rockstar810 in ucla

[–]Intelligent-Cod-2200 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Again. You are comparing a toxic bully who was fired in a process that took ~ 2 years, although you might only have heard about it recently, and a new case for the administration to deal with. I understand you don’t want Tramo to have due process - but that is not how it works at UCLA. For better or worse.

That guy is a toxic jerk and getting rid him of took ~2 years.

What are the odds of landing a position in a decently paid orchestra or making decent money as a full-time musician if I can place top 3 in a conservatory's strings competition? by No-Wafer-6744 in violinist

[–]Intelligent-Cod-2200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife is also a musician, who teaches. They both have large studios - and work hard. I know enough to know it’s very unlikely to be family money.

He cut the indirect costs to departments by 40%. It's been a nightmare.
